Dr. Carie Manke: Turning Trauma into Healing and Hope
“So if I were to give advice to the medical community, it would be that to take the time to actually learn about the patient, learn about their life, learn about what's their past like, and a lot of times maybe you can even identify areas that are stress, that are causing pain or making the pain worse.”
Ever wondered how someone can transform personal tragedy into a force for good? Meet Dr. Carie Manke, who joins Evan the Counselor in this deeply moving episode. Surviving a horrific sexual assault and domestic violence, Dr. Manke didn't just overcome her challenges—she used them as a springboard to become a medical professional dedicated to helping others in similar situations.
