Laura Davis is the author of six non-fiction books, including “The Courage to Heal: For Women Survivors of Child Sexual Abuse”, “Becoming the Parent You Want to Be” and “I Thought We'd Never Speak Again: The Road from Estrangement to Reconciliation”. Her ground-breaking books have been translated into 11 languages and sold more than 1.8 million copies. Laura shares her American mom Temme’s lessons on valuing friendships, forgiving and learning to love someone who hurt you in the past, travelling the world, and cherishing community. We also talk about Laura’s battle with cancer, her mother’s reaction after Laura remembered she was sexually abused as a child, Temme’s Alzheimer’s, about learning deep intimacy with a partner, and allowing your children “psychic privacy” and emancipation.
