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:
