🎙️ Green Beret veteran, father, artist, and advocate — Michael “Rod” Rodriguez has lived a life marked by deep service, both in and out of uniform. In this powerful episode of SOFcast, Rod shares his journey from multiple combat deployments to post-9/11 healing, and how his own traumatic brain injury and his son's military service redefined his mission.
Rod reflects on the power of storytelling, the burden of unseen wounds, and how art, policy, and advocacy became his new battlefields. From serving on the President’s Committee on the Arts and the Humanities to leading the Global War on Terrorism Memorial Foundation, he shows how special operations values translate to national service, community impact, and legacy.
This is about endurance, accountability, and continuing to lead long after the fight.
The uniform may come off — but the mission never ends. Listen now.
