About this listen
Through its four essential steps, A Good Apology gives groundbreaking advice on how best to make an effective apology toward rebuilding any relationship, for listeners of The Body Keeps the Score.
We've all done something wrong or made a mistake or insulted someone - even if by accident. We've all been hurt and wanted the other person to help us heal. It may be surprising, but the breaches themselves aren't the real problem; our inability to fix them is what causes us trouble.
In A Good Apology, Dr. Molly Howes uses her experiences with patients in her practice, research findings, and news stories to illustrate the power and importance of a thorough apology. She teaches how we can all learn to craft an effective apology with four straightforward steps.
An apology is a small-scale event between people, but it's enormously powerful. This comprehensive book gives listeners the tools to fix their relationships, make amends, and move forward. With it, you'll fully understand the meaning and importance of this universal and timeless endeavor: a good apology.

Molly Howes has given us a life-changing gift with her sage advice and evocative stories of hurt, apology, and reconciliation." (David A. Hoffman, Esq., mediator, arbitrator, collaborative lawyer)
