We have talked a little bit about Dr. Cory's childhood trauma several times on the podcast, but now we are going into detail about what his life experiences have meant for finding purpose, healing, and becoming a person.
The good thing about trauma is that it's not the thing that happened to you, it's really how your brain and body react to it. So that means, you have the ability to work through and heal from it.
It might not be easy, but it is possible.
