From Badge to Brew A Marine and Cop's Battle with Trauma PTSD Addiction to Redemption
š„ Episode 129 In this compelling interview, former Marine and Idaho police officer Jarad Webb opens up about his turbulent journey from a traumatic childhood marked by abuse and abandonment to a high-stakes career in law enforcement filled with adrenaline rushes, unprocessed PTSD, and a devastating spiral into opioid addiction. Rock bottom hits with a felony arrest, job loss, and a suicide attempt, but Jarad's redemption arc shines through Vet Court, intensive therapy programs like Save A Warrior, and the unwavering support of his family and a pivotal friend. Today, he's channeled his experiences into Zero Dark 30 Coffee, a veteran-owned business that funds mental health resources for vets and first responders, breaking generational cycles of pain and inspiring others to seek healing. A raw, hopeful tale of resilience and service.
