For years, Kathleen Buhle—formerly Biden—has been a tireless advocate for women. Whether by helping provide legal support for domestic abuse victims or fostering community among women in DC, her advocacy and nonprofit work has given many women critical support for sharing their stories and voices. Now she’s giving voice to the most difficult story she’s faced yet: her own. In her memoir, If We Break: A Memoir of Marriage, Addiction and Healing, Kathleen opens up about her marriage and very public divorce from Hunter Biden; addiction’s devastating impact on relationships; and how she found resilience and healing through it all. In this episode of Beyond the Prescription, Dr. McBride and Kathleen talk about parenting through trauma; the power of forgiveness; and the myriad health benefits of facing adversity head on. As Kathleen’s doctor, Dr. McBride has watched her struggle and grow—emotionally and physically. Now as Kathleen tells her own story, the power of personal story-telling and self-compassion is abundantly clear.
