075: Embracing Pain and Beauty with Myra Sack
EPISODE SHOW NOTES
Sex.Love.Power.: Sacred Sexuality, Conscious Polarity, and Waking Up In Love
Today, I'm so grateful to share with you a profoundly moving conversation with Myra Sack, a woman who embodies the essence of resilience and intimacy with life.
In her newly released book, 57 Fridays: Losing Our Daughter, Finding Our Way, Myra brings us into the intimate journey through the immense grief of losing her daughter, Havi, to Tay-Sachs disease. I wanted to bring Myra onto the show to explore the delicate balance between the most painful and beautiful moments of our lives. This episode is an exploration of how we can navigate our deepest fears and emerge with a stronger, more intimate connection to ourselves and others.
It's a must-listen for anyone seeking to face their pain and find a source of profound connection and authenticity.
In this episode, you’ll hear about:
Myra's practice of "Shabbirthdays" and the power of ritual in creating sacred spaces for healing and connection
How to face and embrace fear to avoid being paralyzed by it
The importance of emotional granularity in understanding and articulating our feelings to better navigate life's challenges.
The role of self-awareness and self-trust in developing psychological resilience and maintaining our sense of self amidst grief and loss.
How to foster meaningful connections and community support during times of profound personal crisis.
And more.
May you find the courage to embrace both the beauty and the pain in your life, allowing them to coexist and transform you in ways you never thought possible.
