Who should listen to Summary & Discussions of What Happened to You??
It is written for everyone because it is about trauma and getting to know other people to form a real connection. Whether you have trauma in your life or know someone who has, trauma affects us all somehow. The book explains a trauma-aware approach that leads to healing and hope in the interesting back and forth of questions and answers and stories shared by Perry and Oprah.
What's in it for me and why is it important?
Everyone has some form of trauma in their lives. Trauma is not just about abuse or even any specific action. Trauma is about how we process or perceive an event in our lives. What is a trauma for one is not the least bit traumatic for another. We must understand how we process events in our lives and why.
You'll soon discover....
Each of us develops a stress response over time, and this response can cause us to display different behaviors, some healthy, others maladaptive. When a person is overly stressed, the brain processes at the lowest levels to survive, even when the stressor perceived is not real. Our brains are highly malleable, especially when we are children, but you must start retraining at the level someone is functioning, not their chronological age. Trauma-aware training for organizations and personnel is just a start in helping people struggling to function in their lives.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

Trauma is a fact of life. Veterans and their families deal with the painful aftermath of combat; one in five Americans has been molested; one in four grew up with alcoholics; one in three couples have engaged in physical violence. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, one of the world’s foremost experts on trauma, has spent more than three decades working with survivors. In The Body Keeps the Score, he uses recent scientific advances to show how trauma literally reshapes both body and brain, compromising sufferers’ capacities for pleasure, engagement, self-control, and trust.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 4,094
Sydney Shaw, like every single woman in New York, has terrible luck with dating. She’s seen it all: men who lie in their dating profile, men who stick her with the dinner bill, and worst of all, men who can't shut up about their mothers. But finally, she hits the jackpot. Her new boyfriend is utterly perfect. He's charming, handsome, and works as a doctor at a local hospital. Sydney is swept off her feet. Then the brutal murder of a young woman—the latest in a string of deaths across the coast—confounds police. The primary suspect? A mystery man who dates his victims before he kills them.

Flight attendant Allegra Patel likes her job—she’s generally happy with her life, even if she can’t figure out why she hooks up with a man she barely speaks to—but today is her twenty-eighth birthday.

But in the real world people don’t make financial decisions on a spreadsheet. They make them at the dinner table, or in a meeting room, where personal history, your own unique view of the world, ego, pride, marketing, and odd incentives are scrambled together.
