When Life Gives You Lemons
Welcome to the When Life Gives You Lemons podcast hosted by Sam Brinkman! In this personal and professional development podcast, we'll talk about the "lemons" life has given me and how I turned them into "lemonade." From childhood and religious trauma to mental illness and abusive relationships to failure and burn out, we'll discuss the ways that these "lemons" can lead to our growth as an individual and a leader. Let's make lemonade!
When Life Gives You Lemons
When You Learn to Stay - or Walk Away
What happens when love unfolds in front of millions — and falls apart just as publicly? In this deeply honest conversation, we’re joined by Jessica Cole, known for their time on the hit documentary series, Couples Therapy, now streaming on Paramount+ with Showtime. Jessica opens up about the journey from heartbreak to healing beyond the spotlight. Together, we explore what it means to grow in love, to grieve what’s lost, and to rewrite your story in your own voice.
This episode is for anyone learning how to stay soft after being hurt, how to set boundaries without building walls, and how to love again — starting with yourself.
Let's make some damn lemonade!
