What Happened To You?: Conversations on Trauma, Resilience and Healing

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.

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.
