## Resource

The entertainment industry rewards performance, pressure, and pushing through. But eventually the nervous system keeps the score. The RED HEART Retreat is a space for high-performing women in high-pressure environments to step out of survival mode, reconnect to themselves, and learn a new way of operating, without losing their edge. Deep nervous system work, honest connection, rest, and emotional freedom. June 4–7 in Ottawa, Illinois. Limited spots remaining. SUMMARY In this conversation, Joe shares his journey from being a police officer and firefighter to teaching resilience and mental health strategies to first responders. He discusses the challenges he faced after a career-ending injury, including the loss of friends and family, and how he hit rock bottom, contemplating suicide. Joe emphasizes the importance of emotional awareness, mindfulness, and the need for open conversations about mental health. He highlights the significance of redefining success beyond material wealth and the role of self-compassion in personal growth. The discussion also touches on the importance of somatic work and the Enneagram as tools for understanding oneself better.
