About this listen
Healing from trauma is possible. fulfillment is possible.
Sara appears to have everything it takes to be happy: a loving wife, a beautiful home, and a successful biotech career. But inside, she’s battling a perplexing, self-destructive impulse that has driven her to sabotage relationships—including her marriage.
Through a journey of self-exploration she discovers that, unknowingly, she is suffering from complex post-traumatic stress disorder (c-PTSD), a condition caused by a series of traumatic events occurring over an extended period of time. It is preventing her from living a fulfilling life and connecting to her loved ones—and herself.
Mending My Mind gives listeners a up-close, touching look at life with PTSD, its causes, and the remedies that help. As Sara seeks to heal and retrain her mind, she tries cutting-edge treatments and ancient approaches to overcome the emotional distancing that has shielded her from the pain of childhood trauma and the long-buried memory of witnessing a murder. When she begins to change her destructive patterns, she can at last live a more meaningful life.
This gripping, candid memoir provides hope and inspiration for those struggling with trauma, as well as valuable insights for all.

"Deliberate and analytical…. Strong and forthright…. Mending My Mind is a powerful memoir about childhood trauma, life-changing experiences in therapy, and becoming a purposeful mother. Emotional highs partner with academic approaches to trauma recovery, resulting in a balanced, moving narrative. (Aimee Joidan, Foreward Reviews, rating 5/5)
