Beyond the Uniform

Beyond the Uniform is a podcast for law enforcement officers who know the job doesn’t just stay at work. Fitness may be the entry point, but this show goes deeper. Hosted by Justin Hesse, Beyond the Uniform explores what it really means to show up strong in your body, clear in your mind, and present at home while carrying the weight of the badge. Through short solo episodes and conversations with other cops, dads, and leaders, we talk about: Reclaiming confidence and energy Using fitness as a tool for mental and emotional resilience Navigating identity, stress, and burnout without losing yourself Becoming the kind of man, father, and partner your family deserves This isn’t about perfection, but it’s about responsibility and building a legacy that lasts on the job and beyond it.
