Facing Adversity with Dr. Jeffrey Gurian
The Outer Limits of Inner Truth proudly welcomes back our very first guest and dear friend, Dr. Jeffrey Gurian. Gurian discusses his latest book “Facing Adversity: Stories of Courage and Inspiration.”
Three-year-old boy loses hands in an accident and grows up to be renowned spinal surgeon! Man born without arms and legs perseveres to become internationally known motivational speaker, husband and father of four children! True unbelievable stories of courage.
Have you ever faced some obstacle you thought you couldn’t overcome? Or spent time feeling sorry for yourself? If so, then this is the book for you!
Facing Adversity-Stories of Courage and Inspiration is a collection of true stories, collected by best-selling author, Dr. Jeffrey L. Gurian, about people who have had to face unimaginable difficulties, and somehow found the strength to overcome them, leading happy, fruitful, and meaningful lives.
Collected over a period of 20 years, the stories are accompanied by additional psychological and Spiritually based commentary from Dr. Gurian, a 20-year plus Board member of The Assoc. for Spirituality and Psychotherapy, and former Clinical Prof. in Oral Medicine and Oro-Facial Pain.
He was inspired to write the book after facing and overcoming many of his own adversities, like conquering a severe stuttering problem that plagued him through his 20’s and beyond, and surviving both a “widowmaker” heart attack and a hospitalization with Covid Double Pneumonia.
During the time he was recovering from Covid, he wrote this inspirational book, essentially taking a negative and turning it into a positive, which is the essence of the book.
