Former Green Beret and CIA war contractor Chris Cathers visits Mickey in the Chicagoland to talk about important work with the Brothers Keeper Veteran Foundation. Cathers did 12 deployments to the Middle East and North Africa. State-side he spent fifteen years in the defense industry and became a corporate turnaround specialist. For years, Chris silently struggled with post-traumatic stress (PTS), depression, and suicidal ideation, fearful that such a diagnosis would negatively impact his career. Additionally in late 2019, he was diagnosed with a sporadic form of advanced bone cancer called chondrosarcoma. Facing these trials led Chris to get involved with “Brother’s Keeper,” a documentary to raise awareness of the veteran suicide epidemic and help for our veterans. You can follow Chris on Instagram @Chris_Cathers or learn more about the documentary and non-profit at BKVF.org.   RELATED PODCASTS: Unlocking the Human Brain | Higher Line Podcast #123 Finding Peace Through Fear // Higher Line Podcast #197 Turret Gunner in The Battle Of Mogadishu | Higher Line Podcast #161 --- Music Attributions: Intro - "3rd Eye Blimp" by Otis McDonald Outro - "I Want More" by Silent Partner   The Carry Trainer Higher Line Podcast is available on iTunes, Google Play, YouTube, Stitcher and most importantly CarryTrainer.com.
