The Nerdy Psych Book Club gang finishes up their conversation about They Both Die at the End with our friend, Lindsay Armendariz, by talking about Post-Traumatic Growth. "Post-Traumatic Growth" is a concept where after you have experienced a stressful, or traumatic or any type of life-changing event you can experience significant shifts in thinking.

We talk about Rufus a lot; we loved him. Throughout the book we really see him going on a journey demonstrating the 5 main domains of Post-Traumatic Growth: appreciation of life, seeking connection to others, a great feeling of self strength, looking for new possibilities, and a spiritual change.

We cry-well Deanna does (only took a whole season!), we laugh a lot and have fun at our nerdy little book club.

This is book club, not therapy :)
