A proposito di questo titolo

After a divorce, many people notice something unsettling: their mind feels more negative, more guarded, and quicker to expect the worst. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. In today’s conversation, we explore positivity bias—the brain’s natural tendency to notice and expect good outcomes—and why that bias often weakens after divorce. Drawing on brain research highlighted by psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen, we’ll talk about how trauma and emotional loss shift the brain into survival mode, making negativity feel automatic—not because something is wrong with you, but because your brain is trying to protect you. We’ll also look at how healing happens—not through forcing positivity or denying pain, but by gently retraining the brain to recognize safety, hope, and goodness again. From a faith-centered perspective, we reflect on the steady optimism of President Gordon B. Hinckley, who taught the importance of believing that tomorrow can be better than today—even when life feels heavy. If you’ve been wondering why hope feels harder after divorce—and how to rebuild it without guilt or pressure—this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical encouragement. ✨ If this podcast has been helpful to you, make sure you’re subscribed so you don’t miss an episode.
