Today we reconnect with a very special part of my self defense journey my brother, mentor, friend and teacher Jeff Pierson.

For all who know him understand that he has such a powerful effect on the family environment at Kindred Jiujitsu. I hope this giver you some insight into the why behind the smiles and positive encouragement that he brings every day into the youth program and why Kindred Jiujitsu is a exemplary kids program.

I am very thankful to have my friends kids attend his stewardship and he is one of the most impactful people I have ever met.

Jeff I want you to know that you are such a light in this world and I value every second you invested into myself and Jackson. Without you our lives would have a lot left laughs, lessons and smiles.

In todays episode we return to the life and lessons surrounding first responders.

I can think of noone better than todays guest, Dennis Pishock. He is a 24 year veteran in Law Enforcement, Firefighting, Swift Water Rescue, EMT-I, and Peer Support.

He hold's rank in multiple martial arts, defensive tactics & combatives.

He holds certifications in all aspects of public safety, including SPEAR Instructor, Defensive Tactics Instructor, Peer Support Counselor, Hostage Negotiator, EMT-I, and Swift Water Technician. Dennis also is the author of “Demons and Angels”, a book about Trauma, Peer Support and how to care for yourself while in a career in public safety. Dennis ran his own martial arts school for 17 years and has always demonstrated an uncanny ability to motivate employees and to lead teams through high stress situations.

I hope that the topics discuss add perspective to the people who operate under the immense stress daily and help to keep our communitys safe. I have often spoke out about the importance of our Law Enforcement Officers training in defensive tactics and relying on physical fitness to power through the obstacles in life. Dennis embodies the exact characteristics we need to ripple though our LEO's.

It is no secret that I am not a political expert. You do not have to be one to talk with someone about things surrounding America.

In this crazy time of political tension it can seem hard to discuss anything with the ones around you. Today we try to contradict that.

As a new segment of ELOTDE we are sitting down with someone to discuss local, Federal and International Political topics in a unconventional matter and thinking through the different opinions we hear about current events.

One of the major failures I see in our country is that we forget we are first and foremost neighbors. The political stances we take do not define us nor should we let our identity dissolve into a political party.

As we continue to do these episodes I hope it acts as a conversation starter for you and the people around you. I truly believe we can find common ground on at least one thing we hold dear to our hearts.

THIS EPISODE CONTANS ASPECTS THAT MAY BE EMOTIONALLY TRIGGERING. AND UNSUITABLE FOR CHILDREN.
