Resilience is a vital trait that shapes both personal and professional success — the kind of resilience, paired with faith and determination, that can transform life’s obstacles into opportunities.
Sharon sits down with Jordan Jo Hollabaugh on In The LOOP from The Cowboy Channel to share the story behind Don’t You Dare Let Go.
Thirty-five years after the 1989 kidnapping, Sharon talks with Jordan Jo about the battles that followed, her long pursuit of justice, and why she believes God called her to finally put the story on paper. A conversation about faith, resilience, and trusting God’s timing.
Earlier appearances — the same story, told to different rooms, with different questions asked.
In 1989, Sharon was kidnapped and held captive for four days and five nights. Here she tells how faith and strategy carried her through those days — and through the life-threatening medical complications and long fight for justice that followed. A hard conversation, and ultimately a story of perseverance.
The conversation turns to what carried her through it all: mental toughness. Sharon shares her ABCs of surviving — attitude, belief, and choice — and how faith, forgiveness, determination, and a refusal to let the past have the last word helped her build an extraordinary life.
Sharon speaks candidly about the kidnapping and assault that tested her mental strength and her faith — and about the gratitude, forgiveness, and community of friends that made healing possible. A conversation about resilience, justice, and the quiet power of showing up for one another.
Asked what resiliency means, Sharon answers: embracing God’s promise for our lives. From a challenging childhood to an accomplished career, she traces the community, mindset, and perseverance that shaped both — and why living well is the most powerful answer to adversity.
