There are so many things that happen in life against our will. Traumatic experiences that were 100% out of your control still leave you feeling like you\u2019re somehow to blame.

She decided to share her story and her lessons in her book, The Urgent Life.\nThis is the episode you\u2019ll want to take a seat for.
