Leading the Brave Way: Mental Health, Courage, and Culture with Matt Davis
Manage episode 512232594 series 3455794
Let’s not pretend. Leading is hard! Especially when you’re carrying your own scars. In this episode, I sit down with Matt Davis, a law enforcement leader and former crisis negotiator who’s walked through the fire and lived to talk about it.
We get honest about mental health in law enforcement. The kind that sneaks up on you, fills your bucket drop by drop, until you’re drowning and nobody else can see it. Matt doesn’t sugarcoat his story. He talks about asking for help before hitting rock bottom, the messiness of relationships, and what it’s like to feel like an imposter even when everyone else thinks you’ve got it together.
We talk boundaries. The kind you set for yourself, not to keep people out, but to keep yourself whole. We talk about leadership that’s more than rules and rank. We talk about leadership that’s about showing up, being real, and building trust, even when it’s uncomfortable.
This is a conversation about the real work: facing your own pain, owning your story, and finding the courage to lead yourself first. Matt shares what he’s learned from crisis negotiation, from heartbreak, and from rebuilding his life one honest conversation at a time.
Let’s talk about what it means to lead the brave way.
No bullshit. Just truth, heart, and hope.
