Broken in the Stronger Places - Signed Copy
A copy of Broken in the Stronger Places - From Resilience to Resourcefulness signed by author Elizabeth A. Estabrooks, MSW.
What happens when life breaks you—again and again?
For most survivors, the goal is resilience—to bounce back, to recover, to be “okay.” But Elizabeth A. Estabrooks, MSW, knows there’s something beyond resilience. After nearly three decades working with survivors of violence, interviewing thousands of women, and navigating her own journey through military service, retraumatization, and a transformative year-long solo road trip, she found it: resourcefulness.
Drawing on psychology’s Kintsugi metaphor—that we become stronger in the broken places—Broken in the Stronger Places challenges everything we think we know about healing. Because healing isn’t linear. It isn’t finished.
And it doesn’t have to be.
Whether you’re a survivor seeking validation, a loved one trying to understand, or a professional supporting those in crisis, this book offers hard-won wisdom, unflinching honesty, and real hope.
Healing is never truly 'done'—and in that truth, there is hope.
