A proposito di questo titolo

MC Hammer Time – Beyond the Badge is where real stories meet real leadership.
Hosted by Mike “Hammer” Cunningham, former police officer, undercover operative, and leadership coach, the podcast explores emotional intelligence, mental fitness, purpose, and the moments that define who we become under pressure.
It’s not about the badge, the rank, or the title.
It’s about the human behind it, and the purpose that lives beyond it.

    EP6 – The Negotiator Mindset: From Crisis to Calm

    There’s a moment before everything changes, a breath, a silence, a split second where a life can go either way.

    In Episode 6 of MC Hammer Time – Beyond the Badge, I take you inside that moment. Drawing on real experiences as a police negotiator, we unpack the mindset required to move from chaos to calm under extreme pressure.

    This episode explores:

    • Emotional intelligence when stakes are high
    • Why negotiation is about lowering emotional temperature, not winning
    • How calm, presence and listening can save lives — and relationships
    • Why people in crisis aren’t bad, they’re hurting
    • How negotiator skills apply to leadership, parenting, work and everyday life

    These principles don’t just resolve crises — they change outcomes, restore humanity, and remind us that presence can interrupt tragedy.

    If you lead, care, listen, or support others — this episode matters.

  • EP5 — Building Resilient Bodies & Minds (with Kerryn Waters)
    Dec 11 2025

    After last week’s raw and confronting story in EP4, this episode brings light, strength, and a different kind of resilience, the kind built through discipline, identity, and self-belief.

    Today I sit down with this Episodes Collaborator - Kerryn Waters — qualified nutritionist, personal trainer, natural bodybuilding competitor, and the heart behind Hibar Nutrition & Fitness.

    Kerryn doesn’t just train bodies…
    She helps people rebuild confidence, identity, and emotional strength through the process of lifting, fuelling, and showing up for themselves.

    In this episode, we go deeper than reps, macros, or motivation. We explore:

    💛 Why mindset is the missing piece in most people’s fitness journeys
    💪 How lifting weights transforms confidence, not just physiques
    🧠 The mind–body connection and its impact on emotional resilience
    🥗 Nutrition truths that cut through confusion and rebuild self-worth
    🔥 The identity shift that happens when people stop trying… and start becoming

    Kerryn opens up about the clients who changed her as much as she changed them, the emotional breakthroughs she witnesses every day, and the quiet power of choosing yourself — even on the hard days.

    This conversation lifts you.
    Grounds you.
    And reminds you that resilience isn’t built in a moment…
    It’s built in the choices you make every single day.

    Next week, we shift gears again — into EP6: The Negotiator Mindset — From Crisis to Calm, where I share real stories from my policing days about influence, pressure, and what it means to lead when everything is on the line.

    MC Hammer Time – Beyond the Badge
    Real stories.
    Real resilience.
    Real people becoming more.

    In this powerful solo episode, I share a story from my undercover career — a night in Kings Cross that tested my purpose, shaped my character, and changed the path of my life.
    This is where Purpose Over Position was born.

    EP4 is emotional, dark, and honest, a teaser of what’s coming in Season 2: The Undercover Chronicles.
    And next week, we move into EP5, Building Resilient Bodies & Minds, exploring how physical resilience fuels mental strength.
