Read by the author.

Why does our past pain continue to affect our present?

Though many of us can point to patterns of brokenness in our lives, we don’t know why they're there. No matter how hard we work, we can’t seem to outrun the very things that break our hearts. That's because our everyday setbacks are rooted in our unaddressed wounds.

In Why Am I Like This? seminary-trained, licensed trauma therapist Kobe Campbell helps us understand why it’s so hard to break these patterns as she offers us a deeper understanding of how our past shapes our present. With tender wisdom, rare vulnerability, and profound honesty, Kobe reminds each listener that they’re not alone, empowering them to step into healing with evidence-based, faith-filled coping skills and resources.

In Why Am I Like This?, you will:

• gain an understanding of what trauma and healing really are,
• explore the roots of your dysfunctional patterns,
• learn how your trauma shows up in your everyday life, and
• find trauma-informed, faith-based coping mechanisms to heal your mind and deepen your intimacy with God.

Kobe marries theological insight with therapeutic principles to give listeners the tools and insights needed to begin their journey of restoration.

Reflection questions, checklists, and personal exercises are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Refreshing approach

Kobe’s book is the best I have encountered at blending the science of trauma and psychology with (Christian) spirituality and theology. So grateful to have these words in my life.

Thank you!!

This book was so great in every way, and I thank God for people like Kobe Campbell who pour unto other in such a special way. It was so good that I will be listening again just in case I missed any nuggets.

Spoken directly to me and my community

This book was very insightful, and I plan to give it as a Christmas gift to all my siblings. I think God for giving her the strength and ability to articulate these words.

Changed my life

THANK YOU! I am in tears over how this helped me. I cannot express enough how this is a book FOR EVERY ONE!!! Thank you Kobe. Thank you!

Great book

This book will open your eyes to see your trauma and begin the work to healing yourself.

About to listen to it for the 2nd time

So much to take in. I “just listened” to the book the first time. I hope to work through the book the 2nd time. I wish that Kobe could be my therapist! So much truth to take in, absorb, work through. Praying for God to use this in a deep way to enable me to walk in the freedom that He intends for me to walk in! At 61 years of age, still trusting God and growing. Thank you Kobe for such a needed book!

10/10 read 👏🏻

One of the best books ive read well in this case listened to lol. Just wow! It really made me look within and evaluate some things internally. The right questions were asked and it helped me put words to things I couldn’t properly understand about myself. Such a healing type of book. I might read a second time that’s how good it was. 10/10

Inward perspective

Great book, one of the few I will probably go back to reading! It’s a therapist perspective but she allows us into real life scenarios. To help learn how to help clients in this space and help others be present in their feelings

Let healing begin

I loved the heartfelt truth of the author’s story as she walked me through her healing. The practical wisdom and direction are incredible.

Best story ever!

It’s amazing how easily the author was able to break down how many times we allow our trauma to influence our actions especially when we aren’t aware.
