He recently published the first three books of the Operation Longevity series. The message throughout both books is to help the Law Enforcement Professional learn to live a more healthy and sustainable life. In addition, Peter  introduced the "Operation Longevity 'Call to Change' Coin Challenge" into the law enforcement community. Peter has worked with the law enforcement community as a therapist and educator for the past twenty three years on the local, state and federal level. He has significant experience in dealing with PTSD and first responders. Dr. Killeen is also a certified mediator for Equal Opportunity (EEO) Issues and his work in mediation began in 2003. Peter has also developed a 2-3-hour course for training the law enforcement professional on the psychology of a career in enforcement. The scope of the training begins with the initial years in law enforcement, the terrible two's, PTSD, anxiety, depression, treatment, medication use, communication skills, preparing for retirement. This course is a must for every law enforcement professional on all levels and should be mandatory for all training academies. Dr. Killeen has recently begun a journey to create a more serene lifestyle for himself. Having been through some horrific disasters in his work, and having been twice diagnosed with cancer, I felt it was time to start his own journey for balance and peace in his life. In addition, Peter lectures to both the public and private sector on topics such as, "The Schindler Syndrome" and "Compassion Fatigue." Individuals are extremely vulnerable to both these issues.

Check out their link at www.cjevolution.com On to the show As you head into your Monday, please remain calm, stay optimistic and remember to take care of each other. I know a big part of your job is remaining calm in the midst of chaos but remember that a lot of people are going to the "dark side" with the Coronavirus pandemic. Your job is to help them remain calm and remain positive. While I am not trying to mitigate the severity of the virus, I do believe that there is a lot of hysteria and fear out there that is not warranted. In my opinion, the Fear and Hysteria that surrounds Coronavirus is much more contagious now.  We will get through this and this too will pass. Remember to take care of the people that need extra help right now. Such as the elderly or people that need help. We need to continue to come together as a community because that is what is going to get us through this.

I love having law enforcement professionals on the show that are not only protecting and giving back to their communities, but they are also giving back to the law enforcement community as well. Scott Savage is one of those unique individuals. Scott is not only a successful law enforcement officer, but he is the Founder of Savage Training Group. Most law enforcement officers are frustrated by a lack of high-quality training classes. Our expert instructors teach advanced courses that help officers advance their careers, become experts and save lives. The Savage Training Group provides advanced training to law enforcement officers by employing expert instructors who present on a variety of topics including Response Tactics for Critical Incidents and In-Progress Crimes®, Field Training Officer, the Response to the Non-Criminal Barricade and more. More information about Savage Training Group: The Savage Training Group was founded in 2018 with two clear goals in mind. First, we want to provide training that will save lives, both cops and citizens alike. Whether you are a cop or not, something we can all agree on is that officers need the best training we can offer them. It’s simply the best way to prevent the countless tragedies that so often fill the nightly news or viral videos. Our second goal is to increase the professional capabilities of law enforcement officers even if it doesn’t amount to something as dramatic as life and death. That means if we find an opportunity to use training courses to give today’s officers and supervisors the tools they need to thrive, then we’ll do it. The way we will accomplish these goals is simple but not easy. We’ll provide advanced law enforcement training in a modern way. We’ll take advantage of the latest up-to-date information and techniques and we’ll use the skills of the best instructors available. There won’t be any shortcuts or settling for mediocrity. We’ll just aim to bring you the best law enforcement training, period.   Such a informative interview with such great advice and takeaways.

They have faced so many roadblocks and hit rock bottom so many times. Yet, they developed that never-quit attitude and they have that there is only one way out and that is up attitude. My next guest is Chris Cavallini. I met Chris at Conclave of Warriors last year and he is an amazing person. But it wasn’t always that way. From leaving the US Navy as a decorated Navy Diver to almost going to prison for dealing drugs Chris had been through a lot because of the bad decisions he has made in the past. Yet, he didn’t give up and now is a very successful entrepreneur who continues to give back to his community and is helping so many. Chris describes himself as the following: I’m just an average guy with average circumstances that figured out the key to experiencing a superior quality of life on both a personal and professional level, starts first with taking control and mastering your physical body. My goal, and what I believe to be my destiny in life, is to help people produce positive, LASTING change and become the upgraded versions of themselves. I spend my days educating, coaching, and mentoring others so they can experience the same. I have the privilege of working with people who are 150-200+ pounds overweight, all the way to professional athletes and celebrities that you see on T.V. on any given day. A few things about me; I’ve studied extensively in nutrition, mechanics, strategic intervention (life coaching) and psychology. I’m also well versed and fluid in just about every style of training from old school weights and boxing, Pilates, to more modern systems like TRX and HIIT.   Chris is such an amazing guy and you can find him here:   https://christophercavallini.com/   https://nutritionsolutions.com/   https://nutritionsolutions.com/ns-team/chris-cavallini/   https://www.instagram.com/chriscavallini/   https://twitter.com/nutrition_sol   Stay tuned for more great episodes on The CJEvolution Podcast   www.cjevolution.com   Patrick

Hello everyone and welcome back to Microcast Monday. Happy Monday. Yes, I said Happy Monday. Monday's are days to be celebrated because you have many opportunities ahead of you, and its the start of a brand new week. Remember it's all about the right mindset. Set the day off right by sending out that positive message to the universe. Special thanks to all the brave men and women who work in the criminal justice field.

If you would like an ebook version of this must have book, head over to www.cjevolution.com On to Microcast Monday I was talking with a friend a few days ago and we were just talking about life. He then started to tell me he wished he hadn't made some of the mistakes he had in the past, and he started coming down on himself pretty hard. If only he had done things differently he kept telling me. We all wish we would have made different choices at some point, but we can't live in the past. Remember that your past isn't as relevant as you think. If you are a person who lives in the past, you have to get over it. You are wasting precious energy and time over something that doesn't matter anymore because it's already done. Today, I want you to do something. 1st - Think about the 3 biggest mistakes you have made. 2nd - What did you learn - Did deep. How were you made stronger? 3rd - What are the patterns you see? Are you falling into the same patterns? Then you have a good chance of making the same mistakes. What is the definition of insanity? Doing the same things you have expecting a different result. Remember to keep your head high, stop making the same mistakes you have and move forward. I would love to hear from you all. Reach out to me on social media or email me and I will respond to you.

Hello everyone and welcome back to the show. I love MONDAY's and you should too. Remember if start your Monday, and any day for that matter, that is what the universe is going to give you in return. Special thanks to all the brave men and women who work in the criminal justice field. Very few can do what you do. Thank you for your continued service in a very difficult environment.

It's better for you than regular coffee and best of off it doesn't taste like mushrooms! Check out their link at www.cjevolution.com On to the show... I had a friend of mine recently ask how I became so fearless. I laughed and replied I am scared all the time! I just don't let my fears cripple me to the point of not taking action. I head into my fears and overcome them. Everyone fears something, but what most do is stay in the fear mindset. They don't realize that EVERYTHING they want, success, money, the new job, the new shift, the new promotion, is on the OTHER side of your fears. And here is another secret. Most of the things we fear about NEVER come to pass. That's right. And if that fear does come, its usually not as big or as problematic as we made it out to be. Once you begin taking on your fears and overcoming them, you become more confident, resilient and happier. Conquer your fears and you will conquer your life. Like what you hear? Work with me 1:1 with my EVOLVE Coaching. I help first responders and criminal justice professionals who are overwhelmed with personal and professional obstacles become more stronger and more resilient so they will become happier and more successful.

If you are pissed off or irritated and no one wants to be around you, I want you to do one thing. I want you to think about the OTHER YOU. Let me explain.  I want you to think about a time when you were happy and content, and I want you to tap into that feeling and remember how you felt. As we all know there are peaks and valleys in a criminal justice career and personally I stayed in a valley for many years of my career until I shifted my mindset. I started doing things that made me happier. I started taking care of myself better, starting reading better things and started associating with people who lifted me up instead of keeping me down. I want you to do the same. I know the job can and often wears on you, but you don't have to let that consume you all the time. Shift your mindset for the better and your life will change for the better. Stay tuned for more great episodes on The CJEvolution Podcast. www.cjevolution.com   Patrick

If you are in the criminal justice field and are struggling with personal or professional obstacles ,or you are looking to make a transition to the private sector, and you feel STUCK -  I want to help you with my EVOLVE Personal Coaching. I have helped many in the criminal justice field re-kindle that fire they once had, develop that overcome mentality and become more resilient, and I can that for you too. Let's get your back on your road to success. Let’s hop on your DISCOVERY call now. Follow this link: https://www.cjevolution.com/personal-coaching/ Ever wonder why some Police Chiefs or Sheriffs are more successful than their counterparts? I am willing to bet one of the reasons for their success is their ability to develop, cultivate and sustain positive relationship, both within the community and within the agencies they lead. I believe so many senior law enforcement executives are lost to this. Either they don’t care, or they don’t believe its important enough to pay attention to. On to the show with Sheriff Leon Lott. Sheriff Lott is the Sheriff of Richland County Sheriffs Office, which is one of the largest sheriff’s department in the Southeastern United States, and is often seen on the very successful law enforcement show, LIVE PD. Sheriff Lott lot has been the Sheriff of Richland County SO for 20 years. He is obviously doing something right and we dig into that, along with important topics, on this great interview. A little more information on Sheriff Lott. Sheriff Lott is a 43-year law enforcement officer who has served as the Richland County Sheriff for more than 20 years. In January 2018, the Richland County Sheriff’s Department (RCSD) became the first sheriff’s office in the country to conduct research on the impact of adding the words “PEACE OFFICER” to its fleet of 600-plus marked patrol vehicles. The success of this first-ever PEACE OFFICER identity initiative is now measurable.   Simple Cost-Effective Program Demonstrates Change is Possible   As part of a charitable initiative operated by the nonprofit Police2Peace, the RCSD study commenced in January 2018. The randomized controlled trial collected data from RCSD’s eight regions, which had the wording “PEACE OFFICER” placed on certain patrol vehicles and not on others. Data was collected through surveys of RCSD deputies, employees, and the citizens living and working within the county’s various communities. The objective was to gauge the impact on citizens seeing, and officers driving vehicles, displaying “PEACE

Whether it’s leadership, resiliency, overcoming obstacles and developing the proper mindset and so much more. My next guest is Boyd Renner. Years ago, Boyd went into a Navy Recruiting office in Colorado with a dream on his mind of becoming a NAVY SEAL. Instead of hearing words of encouragement, the recruiter laughed at him and told him he was too small, too weak and he would never become a SEAL. Thank God Boyd didn’t listen to that SHIT and instead used it as his fuel to become a NAVY SEAL, and then he went on to become a member of legendary SEAL TEAM 6 Community where he served with honor and distinction until his retirement. Highly respected and decorated, I had the honor meeting and speaking with Boyd at Conclave of Warriors in December. He truly is an American patriot and hero, and you are going to love the show. We talk about his amazing journey as a SEAL, life lessons for everyone, his work with Endeavor Life Sciences and the next steps in his life. More about Boyd. CWO4 (RET) Boyd Renner grew up in a one-stoplight town in Colorado and joined the military in 1988. After graduating Navy SEAL Training, he served at SEAL Team Two for four years and served over 23 years at NAVAL SPECIAL WARFARE DEVELOPMENT GROUP (Seal team six)  He earned every rank from E-1 to E-9, and then he transitioned to Chief Warrant Officer in 2010. Boyd served over twenty-eight years in the Navy before retiring in November 2016. Since 9/11, he completed ten tours in Afghanistan, two tours in Iraq, as well as deployments to Albania, Sarajevo, and to the Arabian Peninsula. In 2014 Boyd graduated with honors from Saint Leo University with a degree in Business Admiration with a focus on technology management. Last month he completed his master’s in project management at Penn State University. Boyd is a recognized keynote speaker and is a co-founder of Endeavor Life Sciences, a company that has patented a way to safely add DNA to a new or existing tattoo and jewelry.  He is currently the Chief Operations Officer at FINAO Coastal Group in Virginia Beach Virginia, where he resides with this wife of 26 years, Wanda.

It really starts with your thinking and mindset. Remember if you want big things to come into your life you need to start thinking big. Thinking small never accomplishes anything. V - Visualization. Start visualizing what you want in your life. Want that promotion? Visualize yourself in that role. There is so much power in practicing this because you mind will start to push yourself, subconsciously, in the direction you want to go. O - Others. Who are you surrounding yourself with? The people who you surround yourself with are key to your success. You are the average of the 5 people you associate with. L - Love yourself. If you don't love yourself how do you expect to love anyone or anything else? You have much to be grateful for. V - Victory is yours. You are victorious. You are here. You are talented and gifted and you can do anything. E - Everyday, be your best. Remember to always put your best foot forward even on the bad days. The universe will take care of the rest.   Want more? Let's set up that Discovery call.

Hello everyone and welcome back to MicroCast Monday. Special thanks to all the brave men and women who work in the criminal justice field and who protect us everyday. Thank you so much. Remember you are honored and loved. Keep up the great work. If you haven't picked up my EVOLVE Micro book you need to. This is a must have book that I wrote for you the criminal justice professional. It's small and easy to read and I did that for a reason. I know how busy you are. But, it's filled with vital information and knowledge that you need to be successful in your personal and professional life. Hit me up on social media, PM me or email me and I will get you an autographed copy of EVOLVE. If you want a FREE ebook version of EVOLVE head over to www.cjevolution.com On to MicroCast Monday. Sarah Lewis said the the following " Grit is not just a simple elbow-grease term for rugged persistence. It is often an invisible display of endurance that lets you stay in an uncomfortable place, work hard to improve upon a given interest and do it again and again." We all have talents - Often many talents, but talent alone won't get you were you want to go. How many people do you know who are talented and are wasting their talents, and not going anywhere? I know many. No, the real successful people not only have the talent but they also have the GRIT. What is GRIT? My definition is when you try something and you fail and you get back up and go after it again and again until you succeed. That is a drive that a lot of people don't have, and that is what is going to separate you from your competition. See, there is less competition at the top because most people don't play at those levels. Ready for TRIAD Leadership & Development in 2020?

EVOLVE Coaching - https://www.cjevolution.com/personal-coaching/ Welcome back everyone. I am very excited to have with Dr. Jaquish on the show. Dr. John Jaquish began his experience in life sciences after being told by his Mother that she had been diagnosed with osteoporosis. John, to help his mother, created a device to place axial loading through bone to safely cause osteogenic loading events. The device was to trigger the effects of high-impact loading, but without the risk of injury. After successfully reversing his Mother's osteoporosis, as part of his doctoral dissertation in biomedical engineering research at Rushmore University, he conducted four years of testing with human subjects focused on user comfort, biomechanics, and optimal musculoskeletal stimulation. Next, the device he designed was put into production, and has since been placed in over 300 clinics worldwide. Osteogenic loading has now helped over 30,000 individuals with their bone health. Published data has shown, treatment with this osteogenic loading device has resulted in over 14% gains in bone density in both the spine and hip over one year of once-weekly treatment. Dr. Jaquish is currently advancing osteogenic loading research and speaking worldwide about its implications, as well as developing other biotechnology devices and products that will aid in the advanced health and wellbeing of people all around the world. He formerly a member of the Board of Directors of American Bone Health, and the editorial board of the Journal of Steroids and Hormonal Science. Dr. Jaquish is also a partner with Tony Robbins, and Dr. Jaquish is the inventor of Osteostrong Devices and the X3 System.

Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Head over to www.cjevolution.com and see the link to Four Sigmatic. On this Microcast Monday episode, I want to talk a little about the benefits of sleep. I remember as a first responder, I thought I could get by on 4-5 hours of sleep a night and I did for many years. I thought with a little sleep I would be operating at 100%. Wrong! Your body needs it's sleep and so much is connected with good sleep. Your health, Your mindset and your motivation are connected for starters. Here are some benefits of good sleep: 1) You will have a sharper brain - When you don't get enough sleep you might have problems remembering details and recalling events. 2) Mood boost - When you get enough sleep you are generally in a better mood. 3) Healthier Heart - When you sleep your blood pressure goes down. When you don't get enough sleep your blood pressure stays elevated. 4) Athletic Achievement - Lack of sleep robs you of your motivation, which gets you to the finish line. 5) Steadier blood sugar - Not getting enough sleep can increase your chances of diabetes. 6) Germ Fighting - Lack of sleep can affect the way your body fights off germs. You can get sick more often. 7) Weight control - When you are well rested, your are less hungry. Is too much sleep bad? Too much of anything isn't good for you. Research indicates you should get at least 6-8 hours of sleep a night.

Detecting illicit drugs and explosives this is must have technology for any law enforcement agency. Check out their link at www.cjevolution.com On the to show with Herb Thompson. Herb had a successful military career in which became the only person ever to earn the Green Beret and Army Drill Sergeant of the Year award. Finishing up his military career he had doubts about leaving the military and becoming a civilian. The Army was the only thing he knew since enlisting at the age of 17. Like most veterans, the transition process was not easy for him, and he had bad days filled with self-doubt. However, after over 2,000 informational interviews, thousands of hours of internet research, and hundreds of hours of personal reflection, he found his way. He landed a job at a top-tier Management Consulting firm and a seat in the Executive MBA program at Cornell University. In his free time, Herb has mentored hundreds of transitioning service members.   Herb wrote the very popular book The Mission Transition. This book is for military members who are transitioning into the civilian world, maybe now and in the future. This book is not a checklist to follow for a soft landing upon exiting the military. There is no possible checklist, every service member’s situation is unique. What Herb has done is lay out a different approach and way of thinking for the transition. Instead of teaching you what to think he opens your eyes with how to think about the transition. Herb doesn’t sugar coat the process but reveals his failures in transition and demonstrates vulnerability with personal anecdotes from hanging up his uniform. The reality of transition. The hard questions you need to answer. Techniques to be successful. Ways to succeed and others destined for failure. Herb is also an ambassador of Green Marines. The Green Marines believe we need stop relying on the Government and corporations to make changes on our behalf. We need to stand up and take account of our own actions, our own choices. Be responsible for our own future and make changes from the base up. This is a generation where the peoples voice is stronger than ever, and we have the potential to make real changes that matter. The Green Marines welcome everyone and celebrate them at their best. We help others get out and reconnect with the planet one micro mission at a time. The Green Marines provide inspiration, aspiration and education all in one place. We advocate and encourage positive solutions to modern life. We believe in small, impactful action and that small steps aggregate to make global change. The Green Marines provide micro solutions from across a diverse community of advocates. We

Sign up for a FREE 45minute Discovery Call here: https://www.cjevolution.com/personal-coaching/ For the rest of this great day I want you to think about and reflect on what I am about to tell you. Forgive yourself. Forgive yourself for making those mistakes you have make with your personal and professional life. Unless you forgive yourself first, it will be very hard for you to move forward and be successful. Here are some ways to help you. 1) Remember that it's ok to feel guilty, but understand there is a difference between guilt and shame. Guilt serves a purpose, shame does not. 2) Admit you messed up - We all mess up at points, but stop blaming others. 3) Apologize to anyone you may have hurt. 4) Imagine what forgiveness would feel like. 5) Write yourself an apology. 6) Learn from your mistakes - Stop doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. That is insane. 7) Be Patient - Don't rush things, especially the feelings of others. First you can't control it and when you rush things you will probably make them worse. 8) Don't try to change other people - You can't. But you can change yourself. 9) Practice what you preach.   Reference https://www.oprahmag.com/life/a26028888/how-to-forgive-yourself/   I hope you have a great rest of your Monday and week.

There are so many but I want to give you some of the information that I thought was really good. Hopefully you will too. - What are you spending your energy on? With good people who are motivating and inspiring you or people who do the opposite? - Most of us spend too much time putting your energy at the wrong things. Are you over-investing in your career and under-investing in    your family? I know some of you are. - Start working on how many people you can help. If you are doing that already great, if not start today. - Be Intentional at everything you do. - What does success look like to you? - If you want to start a business or if you have one remember that People buy solutions. Business is solving problems. - STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT YOU OR THINKING ABOUT YOU! - Life Strategy - Your choices about allocating your personal time, energy & talent ultimately shape your life. - If you want more, DO MORE! - Mirror test- What kind of person do you want to see in the morning when you look in the mirror?

Michelle is widely respected for her law enforcement expertise, and commitment to the care and protection of children, and even more loved for her unrelenting positivism, passion, and dedication to the community. A strong proponent of community policing, and “building villages” to instill, nurture and foster a strong, fundamental support for children, her zeal for bettering the lives of others took on an amazing life of its own. She was inspired to develop the L.E.A.P. (Leadership, Empowerment, Awareness, Protection) Program in 2013, which offers a solution-focused method for connecting the police with the schools and parents as a pathway to children’s success in four areas: happiness, health, safety, and resilience. Michelle’s method for “policing youth” is astoundingly authentic, trauma-informed, and mindful of cultural biases and age/gender stereotypes. She believes in seeking out the root cause of risky/criminal behaviors, as this is the only way one can truly “protect and serve.” Michelle’s personal and professional stories of inspiration cultivate a re-dedication to policing as a public service rooted in compassion and greater understanding. Michelle has received numerous accolades and awards for her work, and her thought-provoking conversations have been shared across the nation. As a Massachusetts Certified Teacher and Children’s Yoga/Mindfulness Instructor, Michelle has used her diverse skill set to become a leading voice in a most unique combination of community and youth policing, police leadership, education, mindfulness, work/life balance, and parenting. When she’s not working and changing the world for our kids, she’s home with her family (husband, daughter, three bonus children, and the most zen dog, a Siberian Husky named Denali).   You can find Michelle here:   https://michellepalladini.com/   https://www.linkedin.com/in/michelle-palladini-b45b8310a/   Stay tuned for more great guests on The CJEvolution Podcast www.cjevolution.com     Patrick
