    Cohost Conversation - 2025 New year, new beginnings

    In this final Cohost Conversation of 2024, our hosts, Michelle Scharf and Jennie Taylor, look back at a year of struggle and growth. As they look at the vast expanse of 2025, they understand it is time to make some changes. Jennie will be leaving the podcast to focus on her family and her continuing education as she works on her doctorate. Michelle will be taking the podcast from the halls of KSL to continue on her own with a renewed focus on resiliency and life coaching tools. Of course, their friendship and mentorship continue strongly as they continue on their personal journeys of grief, love, and resilience.  They will come back together in April 2025 for the “R.E.A.L. Connections Retreat,” so visit RelentlesslyResilient.com for those announcements and more.  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.  Presented by Minky Couture, makers of the most luxurious and soft blankets with a mission to share comfort and love during the special moments of life.
