Book: ELEVATE for Veterans
“Dr. Rod’s Vet Talks at St. Petersburg College were truly life-changing! His powerful messages inspired our student veterans to prioritize their mental health and pursue the VA benefits they earned. The impact continued with his new book, ELEVATE for Veterans, an exceptionally well-written and practical workbook that our veterans genuinely appreciate. Dr. Rod’s commitment to empowering veterans is extraordinary!”

Book: ELEVATE for Veterans
“ELEVATE for Veterans fills a long-standing need for veterans and their families. As a veterans nurse and son of a Vietnam veteran, I found its message powerful, practical, and deeply personal. The book helped me finally understand my father's struggles after military service. Dr. Rod and Valerie Cunningham have created an invaluable resource with the potential to transform lives.”

Veterans Faith and Wellness Call
“Dr. Rod’s Faith, Wellness & VA Compensation Call changed my life! After 50 years of minimal VA benefits, my disability rating increased from 10% to 100%, resulting in $44,000 in back pay and $50,000 annually in tax-free income, allowing me to retire early. More importantly, Dr. Rod’s weekly wellness talks inspired me to prioritize my mental health through consistent therapy. His dedication to veterans is truly life-changing!”

Director, MDC Rising Scholars Program
Miami Dade College
“Dr. Rod and Valerie Cunningham are exceptional speakers and transformational educators! Their powerful presentations on emotional wellness, financial literacy, and mindset development consistently inspire our students to overcome challenges and pursue personal and academic success. In fact, our partnership began when students were so inspired by their presentation at a national conference that they personally approached our Executive Vice President and Provost to request their presence at Miami Dade College. Over the past three years, we have repeatedly welcomed them back and invested in more than 600 copies of their ELEVATE workbooks to reinforce these life-changing lessons. Dr. Rod and Valerie are invaluable partners in our mission to empower the next generation of leaders!”
