Since we last spoke, Bruce has published a New York Times best selling book with Oprah Winfrey called: ‘What Happen to You?’ Bruce & Oprah's book just sold over 1 million copies & I could not think of a better way to wish each of our subscribers a happy 2023 than to share this carefully crafted conversation! The main theme of this episode is 'self-regulation', my intention in this interview was to lay out a simple neuro-scientifically backed, step by step process on how anyone can transform Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) into Post Traumatic Wisdom.
