Harnessing Joy Through Life’s Great Labors with Brandi Sellers Jackson

Language of Love with Dr. Laura Berman

Heart aches and and heart breaks will happen for each of us—trust being broken, losing someone we love, or wounds from the past—can shape our lives in significant ways. But the good news is that we can grow through adversity into even better versions of ourselves.

In this Language of Love Conversation, I have the honor of hosting the incredible Brandi Sellers-Jackson. Brandi, a masterful storyteller, birth and postpartum doula, and the creative force behind "Not So Private Parts," joins me to discuss her profound new book, "On Thriving: Harnessing Joy Through Life's Great Labors." We dive deep into the heart of trauma, infidelity, grief, and the powerful journey of healing.

We unpack:

• The four “labors”: relationship, mental health, grief and loss, and feeling bothered
• The path to and power of finding gratitude even in the darkest times
• The impact of childhood trauma on adult relationships and mental health
• The concept of re-parenting oneself for healing from childhood trauma
• The courage it takes to harness self-intimacy and truly know oneself
• The strength it takes to move forward after betrayal
