Happy Thanksgiving to everybody. Thank you to all of our First Responders working this holiday, including but not limited to Police, Fire, EMS, Corrections, Dispatch, Military and Healthcare Workers!

Prayers to all families of which has lost a loved one, in the line of duty.

Take time to count a dozen things, relationships or what have you that you are personally grateful for; or share something with your family before eating.

Thank you to all of our First Responders working this Thanksgiving, missing time with your loved ones!

Prayers to all who are having their Thanksgiving without a loved one who has passed away. May eternal light shine upon them.

There’s a lot of talk about self-care, and yeah, that matters… but service isn’t something we clock in and out of.
Being useful — truly useful — is one of the deepest things we can offer. Whether it’s showing up for a call, caring for family, or simply making someone’s day easier, our purpose grows every time we choose to serve.
“We should never think we’ve done too much for others, or even enough.”
That’s not about burnout — it’s about identity.
It’s about remembering who we are when we step toward someone who needs us.
If this hits you the way it hits me, share it. Repost it. Tag someone who lives this.
And if you want to keep building a stronger, fortified first responder community, check out foundationfortified.org and give this page a follow. 🙏🔥

💙 TMPA Stands with Louisiana 💙

Friday night, a Vivian, Louisiana Police Officer was shot and killed in the line of duty.
To our LEO family in The Boot — we are holding you close.

“When one of our own falls, every badge across this country feels it. TMPA stands shoulder to shoulder with Louisiana as they mourn this loss.”
— Zach Hicks, TMPA President

To the officer’s loved ones and department:
You are in our prayers.

Rest in peace, hero. 💙🕊️

THE JOB WILL TAKE EVERYTHING YOU DON’T PROTECT.

Corrections isn’t just a career — it’s a grinder.

It grinds down your patience.
Your sleep.
Your relationships.
Your health.
Your spirit… if you let it.

You don’t notice it at first.
A little more anger.
A little less energy.
Another night of trash sleep.
Another shift feeling like you aged a year.

Then one day you look in the mirror and realize the badge changed you in ways you never planned.

Here’s the truth nobody wants to say out loud:

If you don’t create balance, this career will become your entire identity — and when it’s gone, so are you.

That’s why you need something outside the wire.

Something that keeps you grounded.

Something that reminds you that you’re human before you’re staff.

Something that pulls the stress out of your body before it turns into disease.

Lift heavy.
Walk in the sun.
Breathe fresh air.
Ride. Train. Create. Sweat.
Do something that fills your tank instead of draining it.

Your body is not made to run on adrenaline and cortisol for decades.

Your mind is not meant to live in hyper-vigilance 24/7.

Your heart is not supposed to be numb.

You have to fight for your longevity.

You have to build your exit while you’re still inside.

Because this career won’t slow down for you.
It won’t check on your mental health.
It won’t make sure you’re okay.

That’s your job.

Protect your health with the same intensity you protect that institution.

You deserve to retire and live long enough to enjoy it.
