    S6 E12 - GEN Fenton and CSM Shorter - We Owe It to the Force
    Sep 24 2025
    What does it take to lead the most elite warriors in the world? For GEN Bryan Fenton and CSM Shane Shorter, it starts with listening.
    In this rare and candid episode, the Commander and Senior Enlisted Leader of United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) sit down with SOFcast to reflect on the privilege and responsibility of leading at the highest level. They pull back the curtain on what it means to steward the force through strategic change, generational evolution, and the demands of global competition — while staying grounded in people-first leadership.
    They discuss everything from modernizing SOF capabilities to investing in families, transitioning service members, and building trust through accountability. Whether you're in the formation or supporting one, this conversation is a masterclass in servant leadership, legacy, and what it means to lead when the stakes are highest.
    🎧 In this episode:
    Why “transformation” isn’t just a buzzword — it’s an obligation
    How SOF leaders balance modernization with preserving culture
    Why caring for people and families isn’t extra — it’s essential
    What it means to “earn your seat” at every level
    And how to lead with humility, even from the top
    This isn’t just a leadership talk — it’s a call to action.

  • S6 E11 – The Carr Family - When Aggressive Is the Only Option

    S6 E11 – The Carr Family - When Aggressive Is the Only Option
    Aug 27 2025
    What happens when a life of service is interrupted by a life-threatening diagnosis? In this powerful episode of SOFcast, hosts Matt Parrish sits down with Major David Carr and his wife Lauren to share their extraordinary journey—one that takes them from the frontlines of special operations to the frontlines of a deeply personal medical battle.
    After experiencing unexplained symptoms, David—a Green Beret—was diagnosed with a large brain tumor, requiring emergency surgery and resulting in a stroke that left him temporarily paralyzed. Lauren, a longtime government contractor and now caregiver, stepped into a new role—coordinating medical care, navigating military bureaucracy, and advocating for the support they needed to survive the crisis.
    Together, the Carrs reflect on:
    The early warning signs and shocking diagnosis that changed their lives overnight
    The role of the SOCOM Care Coalition in helping them navigate a complex recovery
    The value of community, advocacy, and leadership during moments of extreme vulnerability
    David’s path back to active duty, including regaining mobility, setting new physical goals, and returning to serve
    Lauren’s voice as a caregiver and advocate, helping others understand the unseen challenges that families face
    This is not just a story about survival—it’s about service, resilience, and what it really means to take care of our people.
