THE DECISION HOUR
Welcome to The Decision Hour, the podcast where we explore the tough decisions that people from all walks of life have made and the impact those choices had on their lives.
Each episode, we sit down with a different guest who shares their personal story of a time when they found themselves at a crossroads, with their feet on the line, and they had to make THAT decision. Our guests come from all different backgrounds, from business leaders and entrepreneurs to athletes, artists, and everyday heroes.
Through these candid conversations, we delve into the thought process and emotions behind each decision, exploring the challenges and obstacles that our guests faced, as well as the lessons they learned along the way.
Whether you’re facing a tough decision in your own life or just looking for inspiration and motivation, The Decision Hour is the podcast for you. So join us each week as we explore the tough choices that shape our lives and help us become the best versions of ourselves.
In one of the most important conversations The Decision Hour has had, host Mr. Adam Bird sits down with Matt Cahill, Army veteran, combat medic, and founder of Green Star Families of America — to confront an issue that doesn’t get nearly enough attention: the families left behind after a veteran dies by suicide.
Matt’s path wasn’t easy. After serving as a combat medic and facing his own mental health battles, he channeled his pain into purpose — launching a movement to honor and recognize the families who have lost loved ones to veteran suicide through the Green Star service banner.
In this episode, Matt and Mr. Adam Bird dig into the story behind the Green Star initiative, the push for national legislative recognition through HR6022, and the recent wins being achieved at the state level. They break down what advocacy really looks like on the ground, why reducing stigma is still the most critical battle, and how everyday people can take action to support veterans and their families.
This isn’t just a conversation about loss. It’s about legacy, resilience, and a movement built to make sure no grieving family feels invisible.
Don’t miss this inspiring story of courage, compassion, and the fight to bring a long-overdue recognition to families bearing the silent weight of veteran suicide.
