  • Summary

  • What happens when your world falls apart—and you’re left standing in the wreckage, asking, “Who am I now?” In this moving Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with the wise and radiant Devi Brown to talk about grief, trauma, surrender, and the surprising strength we find in our most broken moments. Devi shares how a series of devastating events—including the death of a dear friend, the end of her marriage, and the unraveling of long-held identities—sent her into a deep spiritual reckoning during the pandemic. Yet what emerged was a new, more rooted version of herself, one anchored in faith, self-worth, and radical presence. Devi opens up about how she learned to stop resisting pain and instead, soften into it—finding not only healing, but beauty and transformation. We talk about faith (even when you're not sure what you believe), the difference between self-worth and self-esteem, and why it's okay (and necessary!) to fall apart. She also shares tools from her new book Living in Wisdom, including daily practices to reconnect with your body, spirit, and sense of purpose, even in the depths of sorrow. Here’s what we explore: Why trauma often comes in layers—and how grief can open the door to deeper healing. The difference between surrender and giving up. What it means to have a relationship with God (even if you weren't raised with one). How to recognize the sacred in everyday “tiny joys.” The difference between self-esteem and true self-worth. How meditation can help you move through pain and connect with divine guidance. The practical power of mudras, breathwork, and daily ritual to restore your soul. Why being present with your pain increases your capacity for joy. You can connect with Devi on her website or LinkedIn, and don’t forget to grab a copy of her book Living in Wisdom for even more insights and inspiration.
