And I'll start out by saying to the audience here, get the book. It's really worth reading.
It really is. And it's really, really well-written and engaging. So I'll give it a 10 to start out with. Okay. So Tom is a master's level licensed psychologist with 40 years of experience in this arena. His journey from his own childhood trauma, which is he explains in the book. led him to writing the book, The House That Resilience Built.
