Coping With the Death of a Child | Scott Shellady's Story of Grief & Resilience

What happens when a seasoned trader known as The Cow Guy opens up about the deepest loss of his life? On What Makes The Cow Guy Cry, host Jim Dedelow sits down with market veteran Scott Shellady for one of the most raw and personal conversations you'll hear in podcasting. This isn't about politics.
