Behind the Badge: KC's Journey, Career, and Therapy
from This Beautiful Struggle : Adoption, Family, Life, and Relationships · host This Beautiful Struggle
Welcome back to 'This Beautiful Struggle'. Today, I take you through my personal journey of becoming and serving as a police officer in Oakland, California. I share how my childhood experiences led me into the Police Explorer program, joining the military, and eventually donning the police badge. I open up about the adrenaline highs, the tragic lows like the 2009 incident where we lost four officers, and the emotional weight that comes with the job. I can't stress enough the importance of getting mental health support—something I did with the help of my family and therapy. It has truly made me a better person. I urge all my fellow officers to seek help, for themselves and their loved ones. Feel free to reach out to me if you need someone to talk to. Thanks for watching and supporting.
