It Didn't Start with You: How Inherited Family Trauma Shapes Who We Are and How to End the Cycle

I found this fascinating and beneficial. Bought several copies to give to family members.

This book taught me so much, as a psychology student I naturally wondered about the roots of my own trauma as I learn about the roots of typical textbook trauma, this book had almost all the answers! Generational trauma is so real, my mom and bestfriend have both borrowed this book to learn more. Awesomely informative!!
