Nearly five years later, the organization has expanded to not only include their original principles of training, honoring, and engaging, but to provide Gold Star families with travel opportunities to attend the annual rededication of the Global War on Terrorism Memorial, an interactive and massive 9/11 Project traveling installation, Flag Missions, and much much more.

Entrepreneur Mary Crafts returns to Relentlessly Resilient to share lessons from her book “UNBOUNDED—From Sorrow to Summit.” Around the age of 50, she discovered that even though her life looked successful with family, friends, and amazing business endeavors, she lived it out of fear, not love. So, she CHOSE to start “Crafting a meaningful life,” chose to live a LOVE-based life, got healthy, got divorced, and literally climbed through adversity when she summited Kilimanjaro at age 65. Her book is an easy but impactful read, filled with outstanding advice on taking control of your life and living to your true self. As Michelle says in this episode, “A lot of people have the capacity to take this book and use it as a manual for your life. It’s that simple.”

Relationship betrayal can be just as traumatizing as a physical accident or any other traumatic event. For Jeni Brockbank, the sexual betrayal from her husband was heartbreaking and life-shaking. As an active member of her Christian faith, she chose to turn to God and the scriptures in her time of need, as well as therapy, couples counseling, trauma model recovery practices, and connecting with a community of individuals in similar situations. She has compiled her story and advice in her book “Healing In Christ's Light: From Patterns Of Sexual Betrayal.” She reminds listeners of the need for safety, boundaries, self and spiritual reflection, and the power of finding your voice.
