RIDE ALONG CHRONICLES

  • Summary

  • Welcome to our Podcast! We are 3 great friends who raised our families in the LEO lifestyle for over 20 years. Without realizing it, we ended up creating our own support system because the struggles of police families haven’t changed. We hope to bring those challenges to light by allowing our confidential guests to share what didn’t exist for us, a safe space to feel supported instead of alone. Our guests will openly share their journeys without identifying themselves, their first responder or agency. Our goal is to share lessons learned and provide helpful tools to keep first responder families in the front seat. Send us a confidential email to ridealongchronicles@gmail.com

  • SPOTLIGHT MONDAY: Lorenzo's Polyvagal Theory
    Dec 2 2024
    On today's Spotlight Monday, we shine the light on polyvagel theory as shared from our guest, Lorenzo, author of Bringing Hope, from Episode 61. He explained polyvagal theory and how it relates to first responders. He shared how through his research he discovered that there were several first responders who lived in this disassociated, dorsal vagal state, and they dip down every shift into fight or flight which gives the misconception that they could still feel emotions so they are fine. He described how the effects of this long-term fight or flight didn't allow first responders enough down time to rest, digest, heal, and create dopamine connections from loved ones. For further information, we encourage you to read Lorenzo's book, Bringing Hope.
