How do you keep moving forward after losing someone you love? In this episode of What Makes a Cow Guy Cry, Jim Dedelow continues his powerful conversation with Scott Shellady, better known as "The Cow Guy," about grief, the loss of Scott's daughter Chloe, and the different paths people take to process trauma and tragedy.

Scott reflects on the lasting impact of losing his daughter, explaining why grief never completely disappears, even after 12 years. He opens up about his skepticism toward traditional therapy, his experiences seeking help for his daughter after she was bullied, and why he believes personal accountability and getting back into the game of life helped him learn to live with his pain.

Drawing on lessons from football and wrestling, Scott shares how sports shaped his mindset, taught him to persevere through difficult moments, and helped him find the strength to keep moving forward.
