In this powerful and deeply moving conversation, Craig welcomes back New York Times bestselling author and therapist Dr. Laura Berman to explore somatic grief healing, spirituality, and how love continues after loss. Drawing from the devastating loss of her 16 year old son Sammy, Laura shares how her journey through unimaginable pain transformed her understanding of grief and led her to embrace somatic work, therapy, yoga, and spiritual practices. Together, they unpack why grief cannot always be resolved through intellectual understanding alone, why we must learn to feel rather than manage our emotions, and how guilt, anger, and family dynamics can shape the healing process. Laura also explores the idea of continuing bonds with loved ones, raising our frequency, and allowing ourselves to experience joy without feeling that we're leaving someone behind. This is a conversation about learning to live alongside grief without losing our connection to love, and discovering how opening ourselves to the full depth of our pain can make us more present, less fearful, and more alive.
