    When the Alerts Stop | Identity — The 1st Silent War | Judy Crockett
    2026/10/07
    Send us Fan MailWhat happens when you spent decades being the person who had to be ready for what could go wrong—and suddenly, nobody needs you to carry that responsibility anymore?The radio gets quieter.The routine changes.The emergencies belong to someone else.But your brain may not immediately understand that the mission has changed.In this episode of Your Thoughts, Your Reality, Michael Cole sits down with Judy Crockett, who spent 33 years with Utah State University Public Safety and served as the university’s emergency manager. Her career included emergency preparedness, campus alert systems, critical-incident planning, and helping people prepare for the moments nobody ever wants to happen.Today, Judy is a Certified Brain Health Trainer and Neuroencoding Specialist, founder of the Thrive Tribe, and is building a new mission focused on helping first responders protect their brain health and prepare for life beyond the role.Together, Mike and Judy explore Identity — The 1st Silent War and a transition many veterans, first responders, and public-safety professionals understand:Who are you when people no longer need you in the same way they once did?For years, Judy would walk into work thinking about the worst-case scenario.Could today be the day of an active shooter?Were the alert systems working?Was everyone prepared?Even the sound of opening her morning Diet Coke became connected to the beginning of that state of readiness.Then she retired.The responsibility stopped almost overnight—but the conditioning did not.Judy describes retirement as a genuine grieving process. She loved public safety, the camaraderie, the mission, and knowing that what she did mattered. When it disappeared, she had to learn something that became central to her transition:Being needed and being valued are not the same thing.Leaving the role did not diminish her value.But emotionally understanding that took time.This conversation connects directly to several of The 10 Silent Wars:Identity — The 1st Silent War: “Who am I when the role that defined so much of my life is gone?”Mission — The 2nd Silent War: “What gives me something meaningful to move toward now?”Connection — The 3rd Silent War: “Who are my people when the professional relationships and camaraderie change?”Control — The 4th Silent War: “Can I recognize a potential threat without feeling responsible for controlling it?”Direction — The 8th Silent War: “How do I intentionally prepare for the next chapter before the old one ends?”One of Judy’s biggest messages is simple:Do not wait until retirement to start thinking about what comes next.Have something that pulls you forward.It does not have to be another career. It could be volunteering, learning something new, physical activity, a hobby, time with family, or discovering a new way to use the strengths you spent decades building.Judy also talks about the hidden cost of constant preparedness.She shares a moment at the Pro Bowl when, instead of enjoying some of the best football players in the world, she found herself focused on a fight developing in the crowd.Her public-safety brain was still working.The skill was not necessarily the problem.The challenge was learning when it was appropriate to use it—and when it was safe to come back to the present.Mike and Judy discuss practical ways to interrupt those automatic patterns, including recognizing automatic negative thoughts, asking whether a thought is actually true, changing physical state, movement, breathing, smiling, getting outside, and intentionally redirecting attention.Judy’s approach is not about erasing the awareness that made someone effective in public safety.It is about learning that awareness does not always have to become alarm.And when the professional touchpoints disappear, connection becomes even more important.That is part of why Judy created the Thrive Tribe—a place centered around connection, growth, self-care, and having people who support one another through life’s transitions.Because rebuilding identity is not always about finding another title.Sometimes it is about finding your people again.In this episode, you’ll learn:Why retirement from public safety can feel like grieving a lossHow being needed can quietly become tied to identityWhy your value does not disappear when your professional role endsHow decades of preparedness can follow you into retirementThe difference between useful awareness and constantly anticipating dangerWhy preparing for transition should begin before your final day on the jobHow learning, movement, sleep, nutrition, and connection can support your next chapterHow Judy challenges automatic negative thoughtsWhy maintaining relationships matters when professional touchpoints disappearHow the strengths built in one mission can become part of an entirely new oneIf something in this conversation resonated with you, take a minute before moving on.Ask yourself:If the alerts ...

  • Untitled EpisodeWhat Are We Building Together? | Mission — The 2nd Silent War | Justin & Misty Williams

    Untitled EpisodeWhat Are We Building Together? | Mission — The 2nd Silent War | Justin & Misty Williams
    2026/09/25
    Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the uniform comes off—but the part of you that wants to serve is still there?Military life gives you a mission, a team, structure, and a reason people are counting on you.Then transition comes, and nobody hands you the next set of orders.For a married couple who have both served, the question becomes even more interesting:How do you build the next mission together without trying to recreate the life you just left?In this episode of Your Thoughts, Your Reality, Michael Cole sits down with Air Force veterans Justin and Misty Williams, husband and wife and founders of Bombshell Suds Company.Justin served more than 20 years in Air Force Security Forces, including about a decade as a military working dog handler. Misty is an Air Force veteran and registered nurse whose healthcare background helps shape the couple’s approach to skin care, ingredients, health, and function.Together, Mike, Justin, and Misty explore Mission — The 2nd Silent War and what happens when purpose is no longer assigned to you.For Justin, retiring from the military itself was not the hardest part.The bigger question was:“What now?”Misty found another way to serve through nursing, fitness, and helping others. Justin found himself searching for what would pull him toward the next chapter.That distinction becomes one of the strongest themes in this conversation.There is a difference between doing something because you have to and finding something you genuinely get to do.Justin describes Bombshell Suds as something that can keep him up late and get him up early without feeling like another obligation. What began after seeing handmade soap at a Texas market and thinking, “I bet I can make this,” gradually became something much bigger.They experimented.They changed formulas.They worked on longevity, dry skin, scents, and the experience of actually using the product.Then customers began coming back.Families started referring other families.And what started as an idea began feeling like a mission.This conversation directly connects to several of The 10 Silent Wars:Mission — The 2nd Silent War: “What are we choosing to build now that nobody else is assigning the mission?” Identity — The 1st Silent War: “Who are we after military service becomes part of our past rather than our daily role?” Connection — The 3rd Silent War: “How do we stay connected as spouses while also becoming business partners?” Control — The 4th Silent War: “What can we actually control when entrepreneurship is unpredictable?” Direction — The 8th Silent War: “How do we know when we’ve found something worth moving toward?” Justin and Misty also get honest about something many couples who work together understand:Marriage does not have rank.The work ethic, persistence, and “no quit” mentality they developed through military life have helped them tremendously as entrepreneurs.But some military habits do not belong at home.Misty jokes that Justin cannot “pull rank” on her, and they discuss the importance of remembering that your spouse is not one of your troops or employees.For them, working together requires communication, flexibility, asking for help, and recognizing that both partners will not always be operating at 100%.Sometimes one person carries more.Sometimes the other does.The mission still belongs to both of them.Misty also brings another perspective into the conversation through nursing: you cannot serve everyone else indefinitely while completely neglecting yourself.She sees what can happen when people spend years pouring into everyone around them while ignoring their own physical, mental, and emotional health.Self-care is not separate from mission.It is part of maintaining the person responsible for carrying it.Justin and Misty ultimately describe their next chapter in a simple way:Their commitment to service did not disappear.The mission changed.Instead of serving inside a military organization, they are building something of their own—one product, one customer, one family, and one bar of soap at a time.In this episode, you’ll learn: Why transition can be less about leaving the military and more about finding what comes next How Justin and Misty experienced military transition differently What it feels like when a new purpose begins pulling you toward it How Bombshell Suds grew from an experiment into a family mission Which military habits helped them become stronger business partners Which military leadership habits absolutely do not belong in a marriage Why communication matters when spouses live and work together How Misty’s nursing experience shapes their approach to health and self-care Why entrepreneurship requires focusing on what you can actually control How service can remain part of your identity even when the mission itself changes If this conversation resonated with you, ask yourself:What are we building now?Maybe your next ...

  • What Did Strength Cost You? | Identity — The 1st Silent War | Chris Chandler-Yates

    What Did Strength Cost You? | Identity — The 1st Silent War | Chris Chandler-Yates
    2026/09/19
    Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the version of you that keeps everyone safe starts costing you the people you love?For men in policing, military service, first response, and other high-pressure careers, control, vigilance, emotional restraint, and the ability to stay composed under pressure can become part of who you are.Those traits may make you exceptional at the job.But what happens when they never switch off?In this episode of Your Thoughts, Your Reality, Michael Cole sits down with Chris Chandler-Yates, a former New Zealand police officer who spent seven and a half years in law enforcement, including nearly four years in protection services.Burnout and PTSD eventually forced Chris to confront what the job had changed—not only in his health, but in his identity, his behavior, and his marriage.Today, Chris is a men’s coach, speaker, and host of Motivated Masculine Men, where he focuses on burnout, relationships, purpose, and healthier definitions of masculinity.Together, Mike and Chris explore Identity — The 1st Silent War and a question that goes far beyond leaving a uniform or badge behind:Which parts of the person you became still serve you—and which parts are hurting the life you were trying to protect?Chris speaks openly about how quickly policing began changing him. He remembers becoming more reactive, increasingly hyperaware, emotionally shut down, and constantly prepared for something to go wrong.Eventually, things deteriorated to the point that he nearly cheated on his wife and told her he wanted a divorce.Instead of walking away, his wife challenged him to get help.A counselor recognized burnout and probable PTSD and encouraged him to step away. What followed became part of Chris’s rebuilding process: a three-month, roughly 8,000-mile motorcycle journey designed to help him reconnect with himself.That trip became more than an escape.It became an opportunity to ask:Who am I underneath the cop?Chris describes how policing taught him to switch into a particular persona—the person who needed to remain alert, controlled, and capable when everyone else was moving away from danger.Mike and Chris discuss the importance of learning how to intentionally “switch off” that identity when the shift ends. Chris shares examples of officers using physical anchors—zipping up a vest, tying boots, or entering the station—to signal when the professional role begins and ends.Because the goal is not to eliminate the warrior.It is learning when you need him.This conversation directly connects to several of The 10 Silent Wars:Identity — The 1st Silent War: “Who am I beyond the badge, uniform, or role?” Control — The 4th Silent War: “Can I stop trying to control everything around me just to feel safe?” Connection — The 3rd Silent War: “Can I communicate honestly enough to stay connected to the people I love?” Emotional Armor — The 7th Silent War: “What protected me on the job but keeps me closed off at home?” Trust — The 5th Silent War: “Can I safely open up, ask for help, and let someone see what I’m carrying?” One of the strongest themes in this episode is communication.Chris describes trauma like putting rotten fruit into a box and hiding it away. You may surround it with good memories and keep functioning, but if you never deal with what is inside, eventually it begins affecting everything around it.For Chris, asking for help was not about becoming weaker.It was about becoming a better husband, a better man, and a healthier version of himself.He and Mike also talk candidly about marriage and why real connection often requires taking off the emotional “vest” and allowing yourself to be vulnerable.Chris credits brutal honesty and communication as major reasons his marriage survived some of its darkest moments.His message to men is simple:You can still be strong.You can still protect.You can still run toward danger when everyone else is running away.Just don’t lose yourself in the process.In this episode, you’ll learn: How high-pressure careers can quietly become part of your identity Why traits that make you effective professionally can damage relationships at home How burnout and PTSD began showing up in Chris’s behavior and marriage What his 8,000-mile motorcycle journey helped him rediscover How intentional anchors can help separate work identity from home identity Why risk-taking can become a way of trying to feel something again How unprocessed trauma can begin affecting every other part of life Why asking for help is an act of courage rather than weakness How honest communication can rebuild connection in a relationship Why healthy masculinity includes knowing when to put the armor down If something in this conversation sounded familiar, don’t just move on.Ask yourself:What part of the person I became to survive am I still carrying into places where I no longer need it?Then do what Chris says changed ...
