Chris explains how policing abroad has its own unique concerns with officer health. From Chris: "I thought a career in the NZ Police was what I was cut out for.I wanted to make the world a better place.18 months into the job, a fellow constable was assaulted on the job and I went to multiple suicides where I had to inform their family members, all in a short amount of time. This was when I began to lose touch with myself, my emotions and everything I thought I’d gone into this job for. Instead of making the world a better place, I couldn’t even understand my own world and what was happening to me.What developed was a burning desire to run away from everything and everyone I held close, depression, anxiety and paranoia. My mental state kept me barely existing and the job I had so desired and loved had literally made me sick. This was now going on seven years into the job. I realized I had to make a change and sought out the answers on how to get myself performing and living life on my terms again.Through the help and connection of a tribe, I quickly recognized how powerful it is to develop and truly understand your own emotions. Only then can you be effective and perform at a level where you are creating a life that is fulfilling at every turn. Through hours of coaching, studying, personal development and research not only on myself but with others, I now have a proven method to understand what happiness and health truly looks like.Let me show you how peak performance comes through being a master of your emotional state. Create a life where you can help others, be a better leader and be fulfilled no matter what your journey. Being prepared for what the future can through at you financially and emotionally allows you to stay in the moment and enjoy everyday to its fullest. Let me give you the knowledge and lets create that future of your dreams."
