Live Your Life | Trent Shelton
About this video
Shelton discusses his approach to healing from loss and pain, particularly the deaths of close friends and family members. He explains how he transformed grief into purpose by starting RehabTime after losing a best friend to suicide, and shares how his grandmother’s deathbed wisdom about connection shaped his messaging. Shelton argues that while pain from loss never fully disappears, people can honor the deceased by celebrating their lives, keeping their memory alive through action, and refusing to surrender to depression or hopelessness.
