Ashley and Erin bring on special guest, Kat Pope, from Forensics Found. Kat shares her mental health story throughout her forensic career and how she stopped leaning on unhealthy coping mechanisms and developed a better way to handle work-related stress (even after you exit the field). We appreciate her vulnerability and willingness to help other forensic professionals who may be struggling with similar symptoms.

Also, if you’re new to Gap Science or aren’t active on social media, you may not be aware that Ashley and Erin had a segment called “Taboo Topics Tuesdays” where they went live on Instagram and talked about topics that are avoided or “brushed under the rug” in the forensic world. These discussions quickly became a fan favorite and many followers chimed in with questions, insights, and varying perspectives.
FORENSIC-SPECIFIC TRAINING AND RESOURCES FOR CAREER ADVANCEMENT ARE OFTEN LACKING (OR JUST PLAIN NON-EXISTENT!)
While forensic technician courses are widely available, they may not prepare you for new roles and responsibilities.
Generic leadership courses also may not address the unique challenges of a Forensic Unit. What if you could access forensic-specific training and resources to support your career growth?
Gap Science training courses and resources may be just what you’re looking for!
