“What I realized is it’s not enough to survive. We’ve got to bounce back – and we’ve got to thrive. And so here I am, publishing this book, knowing that loss is one of life’s biggest teachers. And it never stops giving.”

In this special episode recorded live from the launch of host Donna Y. Ferris’s new book, Bounce Back Stronger – Finding Peace and Purpose No Matter What Happens, we dive deep into the science of resilience and explore how our brains can adapt and heal after trauma. Donna also shares three key takeaways from the book, including the importance of making small investments in our healing each day, the value of connection, and the fact that, intuitively, we already know the best path to our own healing.
