Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain development and trauma expert, Dr. Bruce Perry, discuss the impact of trauma and adverse experiences and how healing must begin with a shift to asking, “what happened to you?” rather than “what’s wrong with you?”
Through wide-ranging, and often deeply personal conversation, Oprah Winfrey and Dr. Perry explore how what happens to us in early childhood – both good and bad - influences the people we become. They challenge us to shift from focusing on, “What’s wrong with you?” or “Why are you behaving that way?,” to asking, “What happened to you?” This simple change in perspective can open up a new and hopeful understanding for millions about why we do the things we do, why we are the way we are, providing a road map for repairing relationships, overcoming what seems insurmountable, and ultimately living better and more fulfilling lives.
Many of us experience adversity and trauma during childhood that has lasting impact on our physical and emotional health. And as we’re beginning to understand, we are more sensitive to developmental trauma as children than we are as adults. ‘What happened to us’ in childhood is a powerful predictor of our risk for physical and mental health problems down the road, and offers scientific insights in to the patterns of behaviors so many struggle to understand.
A survivor of multiple childhood challenges herself, Oprah Winfrey shares portions of her own harrowing experiences because she understands the vulnerability that comes from facing trauma at a young age. Throughout her career, Oprah has teamed up with Dr. Bruce Perry, one of the world’s leading experts on childhood trauma. He has treated thousands of children, youth, and adults and has been called on for decades to support individuals and communities following high-profile traumatic events. Now, Oprah joins forces with Dr. Perry to marry the power of storytelling with the science and clinical experience to better understand and overcome the effects of trauma.
In conversation throughout the book, the two focus on understanding people, behavior, and ourselves in the context of personal experiences. They remove blame and self-shaming, and open up a space for healing and understanding. It’s a subtle but profound shift in our approach to trauma, and it’s one that allows us to understand our pasts in order to clear a path to our future - opening the door to resilience and healing in a proven, powerful way.
Grounded in the latest brain science and brought to life through compelling narratives, this book shines a light on a much-needed path to recovery – showing us our incredible capacity to transform after adversity.

Ein mesti og besti fróðleikur sem ég hef hlustað á fram til þessa.Ætti að gera þessa bók að skyldulesningu til fræðslu í okkar nútímasamfélagi til þess að hafa meiri getu til að aðstoða þá sem eru hjálparþurfi , eins fyrir þann sem hefur staðið i þeim sporum sem er lýst i bókinni , því skilningurinn á því sem er að gerast í höfði fólks i aðstæðum sem þessu , hjálpar meira en orð fá lýst.

Breathtaking. This book has answered so many questions I didn't have the words to ask. If you want to understand what happened to you and break the cycle, this is the book for you. It's concise, articulate, and easy to understand.

Mun lesa aftur eftir að malla í smá. Frábær bók og vel lesið. Rólegheit og erfið málefni er erfitt að blanda saman en þeim tekst það. Get ekki mælt meira með þessari bók. Sérstaklega fyrir fólk sem vill skilja betur annað fólk (börn og fullorðna sem sýna kvíða, skapstigð, sjálfskaða eða þunglyndi etc ekki tæmandi listi). Oprah er notla barasta frábærust. Dr. Bruce er neuroscientist og barna og fullorðins geðlæknir. Saman eru þau flott dúó. Margar sögur og reynslusögur sem gerðu að gat ekki lagt frá mér bókina fyrr en hún var búin 🤯 Þú munt ekki sjá eftir því að lesa/hlusta á þessa bók 🙌

Allir ættu að lesa þessa bók!! Útskýrir svo vel tenginguna á milli áfalla og hegðunar og einnig hvernig áföll fara á milli kynslóða. Mikilvægi tenginga fyrir börn strax frá þeim degi sem þau mæta í heiminn og hvað það skiptir okkur miklu máli að tilheyra og að eiga okkar fólk sem alltaf er hægt að leita til. Það sem stakk mig samt mest var mikilvægi þess að foreldrar hugsi um sig og Regulated sjalfa sig til að geta verið til staða fyrir börnin sín, það er ekki hægt nema að eiga tíma fyrir sjalfa sig. 🩷 Mæli með !! Endaði grenjandi yfir seinasta kaflanum því ég tengdi svo mikið !!!
