About the Original Book:
What Happened to You? is a relevant and fascinating discussion about trauma and how it colors our world. When passions collide, people connect. Oprah reflects on her vast experience with trauma as a professional listener while Dr. Bruce Perry brings his science and sentiment to the table. When the brain stem takes over, rational thought stops, and connections are broken. These two unlikely cohorts reveal the secret to a better life: to regulate, dive into relationship, and reap the rewards of healing and progress.
