How We Grow Through What We Go Through
Even in the best of circumstances, life can seem like a parade of traumatic events. The good news: we all have the ability to grow from adversity. Researchers call this “post-traumatic growth.” How We Grow Through What We Go Through brings us easy-to-understand practices to turn everyday experiences into a source of resilience and strength.
