Erica Gaines is the founder of TacMobility, an organization whose vision is to heal the divide between police officers and communities of color by focusing on the health & wellness of officers. With her intolerance for BS and unique blend of Mindful Yoga Teacher and LEO drinking buddy, she brings a fresh perspective to topics like police suicide, talking about feelings and social issues. She embodies her belief that officers in ‘survival mode’ cannot tap into their compassion and creative problem-solving abilities, preventing effective and proactive training and policies. She teaches officers how to recover from stress, lower hypervigilance and move into a place of wellness in which they can thrive. Her insights into law enforcement are rare for a “civilian” and her heart for officers, their families and humanity is apparent.
Erica’s most captivating interviews encompass the following topics: Self-care for LEOs, Coping Skills for Law Enforcement Stress, Post Traumatic Growth vs Post Traumatic Stress, Trauma in law enforcement, cumulative stress/trauma exposure, Blue Lives Matter vs. Black Lives Matter and community engagement.
