Attorney Erin Preston reluctantly learned to deal with death as she advocated for better mental care for youth in schools when a rash of suicides broke out in her school district. Amid the battle to help students feel loved and seen, her husband was a rock in life. Sadly, amid that fight, the Draper fire marshal passed away unexpectedly from a heart attack. In this part one of a two-part series, Erin shares the story of her beloved husband Bryan Robert Thatcher’s passing and how her family and friends, like our Relenteslsly Resilient hosts, rallied to support each other in their loss.
In the second of a two-part series, attorney Erin Preston continues to share the hard-earned lessons and tools of resilience she has learned from the unexpected passing of her husband Bryan Robert Thatcher. The grief over his death in 2018 was compounded by other tragic losses among her family and friends, including our Relentlessly Resilient hosts’ husbands. Together they discuss their journey of loss, communicating grief, and the choice to use loss to springboard into growth.
Even though we live in challenging times, we can become Relentlessly Resilient as we lean on and learn from one another’s experiences. Hosts Jennie Taylor and Michelle Scharf are no strangers to overcoming adversity; Michelle lost her husband to cancer, while Jennie’s husband, Major Brent Taylor, was killed in the service of our country. Their stories bond them together, and now listeners can join them weekly as they visit with others enduring challenges and who teach us how they are exercising resiliency, finding value in their grief, and purpose in moving forward.
