Make Mental Health Matter with Kelli Melissa Reinhardt: Beyond the Badge

Beyond the Badge: Shifting Mindset and Leadership

On this episode of the Make Mental Health Matter Show, Kelli chats with Richard Bistline.

In the aftermath of a fight with depression, several challenges in his life and work as a police officer, he came close to dying by suicide. He could only recognize the needed help with a nudge from a supervisor he worked for who saw his humanity and knew he was struggling. Since then, he has found hope in shifting his thinking and behavior toward a different way of being through a change in mindset. He is now driven by a passion centered on the art and science of leadership, philosophy, and understanding human behavior. His work focuses on helping others understand the importance of self-awareness, mental health and wellness, and professional growth through a change in mindset.

Dr. Richard Bistline is challenging the status quo in leadership development practices across the law enforcement and public safety professions. Dr. Bistline is a seasoned Business Leader and Subject Matter Expert in Public Safety and Law Enforcement, boasting over three decades of diverse experience.

Dr. Bistline cares deeply about fostering growth, self-awareness, and building resilience in others. His purpose is to give back and support those dedicated to public service. His passion lies in helping organizations become people-centric, fostering cultures where learning and development are integral. Committed to improving public safety leadership, Dr. Bistline challenges conventional development practices, working with diverse clients and teams to achieve personal and professional goals while focusing on the mission.
