The Science Behind Heartbreak and How to Heal From It, with Florence Williams

Journalist & author Florence Williams joins Jillian to discuss her new book, Heartbreak: A Personal and Scientific Journey. Florence explains how humans are hard wired for pair bonding, the powerful effects love has on our brain chemistry, and the physiological consequences of a “breakup,” from hormonal imbalance and compromised immune function to increased inflammation and elevated risk of heart failure. Florence then walks us through how to heal by finding calm, connection, and purpose.
