About this listen

 When Emma Heming Willis’ husband, actor Bruce Willis, was diagnosed with frontotemporal dementia, she felt like her world has fallen apart. In this heartfelt conversation with Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen, Emma opens up about the hidden grief of ambiguous loss, the weight of caregiving, and how she’s turning pain into purpose through her advocacy and new book The Unexpected Journey. With raw honesty and hard-won wisdom, she shares how she found strength, community, and resilience while holding onto love in the midst of heartbreaking change. Whether you’re a caregiver, grieving, or walking alongside someone you love through illness, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone—and that hope can be found even in the hardest places.
