Seven days ago, 9/10/25 at 12:24pm (MST), Evergreen was shaken by the tragedy of another school shooting—the 47th in the United States this year. This is unacceptable, and no community should ever have to endure such pain. While this episode is not about the event itself, it focuses on recovery and the difficult journey that follows such trauma.
Joining the conversation are Brandon and Elliot Young, a father and daughter who experienced the 2019 STEM School shooting in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. Elliot was in one of the affected classrooms. Rather than retelling the details of that day, this episode explores what comes after—the ongoing path of healing, navigating PTSD, and finding strength to move forward as a family.
Brandon Young is a principal at Applied Leadership Partners, an author, former U.S. Army Ranger, and combat veteran who has built his life around leadership and resilience. His daughter, Elliot Young, a survivor of the STEM School shooting, is now a CU Boulder graduate and marketing professional, pursuing her MBA at Northern Colorado. Together, they share their perspective on life after violence, offering hope, honesty, and the tools to keep going.
This conversation is hosted by Bobby Marshall, Evergreen High School class of 1998 and host of The Mountain Side. Bobby is deeply committed to supporting his community and raising awareness of the families across the United States who are impacted by the epidemic of school shootings and unacceptable acts of mass violence.
This episode is about healing, resilience, and the power of moving forward—even after the darkest moments.
