Bio in Brief

Bryan Wolfe is an accomplished scientist and author who grew up surrounded by trauma that altered the course of his life. In the years following this trauma he would endeavor to do the work required to change and heal.

Using his background as a scientist to understand and explain difficult concepts and draw difficult to see connections between concepts like neuroplasticity and psychology would eventually become his passion.

My Story

Breaking the Cycle: The Epigenetics, Psychology & Trauma of Narcissistic Families, not only tells a story about the author’s journey through healing and recovery, but also dives deep into the science and psychology behind generational family disfunction.

Part one of this book tells the author’s story and discusses the problems which are pervasive within broken families, including mental illness, addiction and generational trauma. Part two of the book discusses the underlying science and psychology, like epigenetics and neuroplasticity in a way that very few books have. In part three of the book, the author integrates these concepts with his own story, and these complex topics become relevant and relatable to healing in a way which few books have made them.

This isn’t a self-help book; it is a primer about the underlying scientific and psychological principles that allow people to heal and change when they are willing to do the work. Where possible, the author tells the reader exactly what he did to overcome his own traumatic past and change his broken thinking to become whole again.

This book has been written to inspire others and prove that no matter where you are in your life, healing is possible, but only with the work of change. Right now, more than ever, so many people are searching for a way to heal, and many find themselves unable to change their lives. This is the crux of the issue, a desire to change without a willingness to go the distance, and most of all it’s this challenge, this book attempts to address.
