Raw. Real. Redemptive. A Must-Listen.

Christi Bundukamara (Dr. B) doesn’t just tell her story—she lives it out loud in Pain and Purpose: My Journey to Mental Strength. Her ultra-vulnerability is striking, walking us through unspeakable trauma with truth and grace.

She shares real tools for mental strength, including her simplified Cognitive Behavioral Therapy approach:
Think. Organize. Choose.
It’s practical and powerful, especially when emotions feel overwhelming.

Her Mentally Strong Method is born out of her lived experience as a wife, mom to seven (biological and adopted), and a clinician. From losing a child to navigating special needs, substance abuse, and the heartbreak of reactive attachment disorder—she holds nothing back.

What stayed with me:
• Her honesty about limiting beliefs like “I’m not good enough.”
• Her courage in naming pain and choosing purpose anyway.
• Her ability to equip and inspire.

This book is more than a memoir—it’s a manual for healing.
Highly recommend.
