00:00I couldn't remember my mom's laugh.
00:02I couldn't remember what she looked like.
00:05I felt like I had to be sad in order to prove to her that I missed her.
00:15I consider myself a student of grief,
00:17which is why we've got Dr. Mary Frances O'Connor joining us,
00:21because she is the neuroscientist expert.
00:24Grief shows up whether you've lost a loved one, a job, or anything in between.
00:28In my 20s, I went to war twice, thinking I could outrun my feelings.
00:33But that's not what happened.
00:35Your brain doesn't register your loved one as gone.
00:38It registers them as lost.
00:40And it will keep searching until you teach it otherwise.
00:44We still expect that they're going to walk through the door.
00:48I must be crazy.
00:50You're not crazy.
00:54I'd spent so long emotionally numb, to a large extent,
00:57because nobody told me joy was still allowed.
01:01But it wasn't betrayal.
01:03This class will hopefully give you that permission,
01:05and the tools to access it.
01:07This is for anyone rebuilding.
01:09Whatever you've lost, there is a path forward.
01:12And what you've lived through isn't just something to survive.
01:15It's the foundation for what comes next.
01:25I'm Dr. Mary Frances O'Connor.
01:27I'm Harry, and this is Masterclass.
01:30Masterclass.
01:31Masterclass.
