Chaos Getaway: A Travel Guide to Key Largo

Welcome back to Relative Chaos, the podcast where family meets frenzy—and somehow we all survive.

And today we’re kicking off our brand new travel series, Chaos Getaway—because nothing says "relaxing vacation" like packing the family into one itinerary.

First stop? The salty breeze, sun-drenched streets, and low-key quirks of Key Largo, Florida.

We’ll tell you where to eat, what to skip, what we accidentally broke, and how we managed to turn a tropical paradise into a full-blown episode of—well, relative chaos.

So whether you're planning your own escape or just here for the stories, grab your flip-flops and brace yourself for...

Chaos Getaway: Key Largo Edition!

Beyond the Badge: The Silent Struggle — PTSD and Suicide in Law Enforcement

"Behind the badge, there’s a human being — and far too often, that person is suffering in silence."

In this powerful episode of Relative Chaos, we shine a light on one of the most pressing and often overlooked issues in law enforcement: PTSD and suicide among our officers.

You’ll hear raw, honest stories from Lt. Kenneth Barrett who has walked the thin blue line — stories of trauma, resilience, and the silent battles many face long after their shift ends. We talk about mental health and how it affects officers, their family members and about the toll this job can take — and what we must do to change the culture around mental health in policing.

💡 Why is mental health still taboo in law enforcement?
💔 What support do officers really need?
🛑 And how do we stop the silent epidemic of suicide before it claims more lives?

This episode is not just a conversation — it’s a call to awareness, compassion, and action.

Tune in to Beyond the Badge: The Silent Struggle — PTSD and Suicide in Law Enforcement.
Because protecting those who protect us should never be optional.

In this deeply personal episode, we open up about losing my brother to suicide — the day our lives were forever changed, and the grief that followed. This is a raw, honest conversation about love, loss, mental health, and the painful questions that come after suicide.

We talk about who my brother was, what we shared, the signs we missed (or didn’t), and how we’ve been navigating grief, guilt, and healing in the aftermath. This episode is for anyone who has lost someone they love — especially a sibling — and for those trying to understand the ripple effects of suicide.

This is not a polished story — it’s real, vulnerable, and unfiltered. Whether you’re grieving, supporting someone who is, or trying to make sense of your own pain, we hope this space brings you comfort and connection. Bear with us as we speak about the Fight Without someone we love.
