Summary
In this episode, Mo and Tyler sit down with Vicki Speed, founder and CEO of Blue Cancer Connect, to discuss her husband’s battle with cancer, the emotional toll on their family, and how that experience inspired her to create a nonprofit dedicated to helping law enforcement officers facing cancer. Vicki shares honest, raw stories about caregiving, grief, and the vital support she received from her husband’s department. She explains how Blue Cancer Connect goes beyond fundraising to focus on education, prevention, navigating benefits and medical systems, and partnering with other organizations to build real solutions for officers and families.
