Many first responders find themselves forced to retire or leave their careers due to injury or other circumstances, and this can lead to feelings of uncertainty and a lack of purpose. Jess, however, took her own experience of losing her job and turned it into an opportunity to help others in similar situations.
Our guest, Jess Flores started her career in law enforcement at the young age of 21, but just ten years later, her career was abruptly taken away due to an injury. Uncovering a story that goes beyond the uniform and delves deeply into the complex struggles faced by those on the front lines, Jess opens up about the abrupt end of her career.
Jess uses here experience as a former law enforcement officer to support her brothers and sisters as founder of NextShift, a coaching program that helps first responders transition out of their careers and find their purpose. She also discusses the culture shock of entering the world of first responders at a young age, the traumatic incidents she experienced on the job, and the lack of support she received from her department.
From the topic of identity and the process of rebuilding one's life after a significant loss, her story highlights the importance of finding purpose and rediscovering one's identity outside of the uniform. By sharing her experiences and providing support through NextShift and The Next Shift Podcast, Jess is making a significant impact in the lives of first responders and helping to create a more supportive and understanding culture within the profession.
