Ep. 1: The Courage to Live - The Courage to Begin

In the very first episode of The Courage to Live Podcast, Josh and Jenna Bitsko open up about their careers in law enforcement, the culture they experienced, and the unseen toll of critical incidents. Josh shares his path from an eager cadet at 18 to handling some of the most difficult moments in policing, including the Route 91 shooting in Las Vegas. Jenna  offers balance and context, while bringing her perspective as a manager of crime analytics and as Josh’s partner, asking the questions that pull out lessons not only for first responders but for anyone facing fear, loss, or change. Together they set the stage for what this podcast will be: honest stories, hard truths, humor, and a focus on how all of us can find the courage to live.
