First responders are trained to run toward danger, but what happens when the biggest battle is the one they fight within? In this powerful episode of 81-58: Stories of Sacrifice, retired Sgt. Michael Sugrue shares his personal journey through trauma, PTSD, and the road to healing. As the co-author of Relentless Courage: Winning the Battle Against Frontline Trauma, Michael is on a mission to break the stigma surrounding mental health in law enforcement and beyond. We dive into the realities of cumulative trauma, the challenges of seeking help, and how departments can better support those who serve. If you or someone you love wears the badge, this episode is a must-listen.
