Dennis Pishock on PTSD, Peer Support & Resilience | Lessons from Firefighting, Law Enforcement, and ‘Demons & Angels’

Dennis Pishock has lived the weight that first responders carry — from 18 years as a firefighter to his current role in law enforcement. In this episode, he opens up about the hidden toll of the job: PTSD, suicide, trauma, and the daily battles that come with wearing the badge.

Drawing from his book Demons & Angels, Pishock shares how peer support, training, and honest conversations can save lives. He also talks about martial arts, leadership, and how building resilience is just as critical as any technical skill in public safety.
