Turning Tragedy Into Purpose: Regan Falk’s Story and the Legacy of Kevin Regan

Guest: Regan Falk – Founder, Kevin Regan Family Foundation

Summary:
In this heartfelt and deeply emotional conversation, Conrad talks with Regan Falk, widow of Philadelphia police officer Kevin Regan. Regan shares her family's journey—beginning with Kevin’s dream of becoming a police officer, the toll of years on the force, and the trauma that ultimately led to his tragic suicide.

They discuss:

  • Kevin’s passion for policing and dedication to service

  • The warning signs Regan noticed, and the difficulty of recognizing mental health decline

  • The lack of support from the department in the aftermath

  • Regan’s decision to launch a foundation to help other law enforcement families

  • How the Kevin Regan Family Foundation offers financial aid, therapy support, and more for first responders and their loved ones

This episode is a call to action—for departments, officers, and communities—to address mental health before it’s too late.

Topics Covered:

  • Signs of PTSD and emotional burnout in first responders

  • Challenges faced by law enforcement families

  • Institutional shortcomings in addressing officer wellness

  • The impact of suicide on surviving family members

  • Regan’s mission to change the system and support other families
