Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing
“What Happened to You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience, and Healing” by Dr. Bruce D. Perry and Oprah Winfrey, published in hardcover on April 27, 2021, is a profound and compassionate exploration of how trauma shapes our lives and how healing is possible.

Through intimate conversations, Dr. Perry, a renowned neuroscientist and trauma expert, and Oprah Winfrey explore the science of trauma and resilience, illustrating how early experiences impact brain development and emotional well-being. They share inspiring stories of individuals overcoming adversity and offer practical guidance on how to build resilience, foster connection, and create environments that promote healing. This accessible and empathetic book is valuable for anyone seeking to understand trauma’s effects, whether for personal growth, parenting, education, or therapy, emphasizing the power of empathy and the human capacity to recover and thrive.
