Chaplain 24/7

Retirement doesn’t have to mean losing your sense of purpose. After leaving the fire service, Jared Cheselske set out to rediscover his "why." That journey led him to Sharp Performance, where he now shares his story with firefighters, police officers, and other public safety professionals navigating their own challenges. Watch the full conversation: https://youtu.be/qSkRP0HRnlE

"A friend of mine made a call and saved my life, so I'm calling you." Watch this episode of The Hero's Journey: https://youtu.be/qSkRP0HRnlE Jared’s story proves that major impact starts with one person. One call can save a life. One coach can shape a community. We’re proud he’s part of our coaching team.

The military and first responder communities share many experiences, including the transition between service and family life. Former Green Beret Justin Crocker sat down with Sheriff (Ret.) Dr. Currie Myers to discuss how first responders make that shift at a high tempo.

On behalf of Chief Kelly Gordon and all members of the Santa Barbara Police Department, we offer our deepest condolences to the family of Officer Lauren Craven and the La Mesa Police Department. Her courage in the line of duty and the care she showed her community will be remembered by all who knew her.
