We need resilience, now more than ever. Surprisingly, the newest research on the true burden of trauma also reveals that there is extensive untapped wisdom about resilience. Dr. Hamby reveals what she has learned from her own experiences overcoming trauma and more than 20 years’ experience listening to stories of resilient people. Sherry Hamby, Ph.D. is a researcher, psychologist, and, like most people, a survivor of trauma. She dedicates her work to reducing the burden of trauma and identifying the under-appreciated strengths of marginalized communities. Dr. Hamby is a research professor of psychology at the University of the South and an award-winning scholar. When she’s not working, she enjoys spending time with her husband and two children and going for long walks with her two dogs. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx
