Matt Crawford speaks with author Dr. Angela Bowers about her book, Overcoming. A psychotherapist for over 40 years Dr. Bowers decided to share one of her most challenging and complex patients with us. Using the name Emma to protect her identity, Dr. Bowers shares the intense therapy Emma needed for 6 years to try and heal from the vast trauma, of all different types that she had suffered. A story that can be difficult to read it is also one that is sure to uplift. Emma's words are also included in this book, and it shows how indominable the human spirit truly is. While we all may have not experienced what Emma has, her story will strike resonance with some of our struggles and illustrate that there is always hope.
