Waterfalls & WTFs: Joanna and Rachel discuss life in uniform and nature as therapy
Download MP3This week I’m joined by Rachel, a police officer, mum, and full-time human being trying to keep it all together (relatable, right?).
We talk about:
What it’s really like working in the police force
How she balances high-pressure shifts with family life
The mental load of being the “strong one”
Why chasing waterfalls and spending time in nature has become her go-to for peace
The surprising moments that have shaped her life and mindset
Whether you're juggling a demanding job, parenting chaos, or just looking for a little calm in the storm — this one’s for you.
💬 And remember — if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, you’re not alone.
