126 - The Hidden Injury Behind the Anger with Jeff Casselman

What happens when the trauma isn’t just emotional — but neurological? In this powerful episode, Conrad Weaver talks with retired police officer and Army veteran Jeff Casselman about the devastating intersection of PTSD, cumulative concussions, and traumatic brain injury. Jeff opens up about blackout rage, memory loss, seizures, personality changes, and the painful impact those injuries had on his career, marriage, and identity. This is an honest conversation about what policing can cost when injuries go unseen, symptoms get misread, and officers keep pushing through. If you serve in law enforcement, lead first responders, support officer wellness, or love someone in the job, this episode is a wake-up call you need to hear.
