Summary
In this week's series of the podcast, we are sharing more of the stories featured in Tana Amen's upcoming memoir, "The Reluctant Courage of a Scared Child". In the previous episode, Tana reflected on what it felt like to shut everything in her life down when she was diagnosed with cancer. In this episode, she and Dr. Amen discuss the depression that followed that awful diagnosis, and why one of the most important lessons she learned during that time was that doctors can make mistakes, and if you don't do your own research, the effects can be devastating.
