“Life is an oscillation between being very hard and very good.”
In this first ever episode of Therapy Works, Julia Samuel is joined by Minnie Driver who touches on some fundamental challenges we all face in life and gives a fascinating insight in how to manage them.
In this conversation we explore:
What we inherit from our parents and how that can impact our choices and outcomesHow we can learn to live with our wounds but can never erase themHow the loss of Minnie’s beloved mother has changed her outlook towards lifeThe crucial importance of hope and how that tiny flicker of light that can help us survive when we feel we can’t

Thank you for all of this. Incredible how grief comes at us but we have no known way to confront or organize it. I made my mother a rose gold posey ring not long before she died (she requested the idea and left the execution up to me ), and when I eventually received it back I engraved “love my memory *remember my love” on the inside as a kind of memento mori.

It appears to me that the rebirth she experienced for herself at the passing of her mother was a fundamental role change. She would no longer perform the part of a daughter, a role that was clearly foundational for her and I suppose it is for most of us. I still have one of my parents and I can only imagine the existential crossroads that are ahead thanks in part to what you have shared here. Thank you for acting, or rather continuing to act, as an emotional surrogate. It's what artists do, isn't it?

WOW! The whole shebang right here. Great work about the worst & best stuff about the dead still wrestling within you. And the importance of wearing black to signal your raw state...Just thank you both.
