Dr. Edith Eger: Holocaust Survivor and Author of The Ballerina of Auschwitz (ep. 710)
Description
At almost 97 years old, Dr. Edith Eger is a Holocaust survivor, renowned psychologist, and author of the bestselling and award-winning memoir The Choice. In 1944 as a Jewish teenager living in Nazi-occupied Eastern Europe, Edith was sent to Auschwitz where she endured the most unimaginable hardships. And yet, rather than being defined by the trauma of her past, she’s chosen to rise above it – and inspires others to do the same.
Today, Edith is joined by her grandson Jordan. Together, they share a story of love, loss, survival, and most importantly, the freedom found in choosing how we respond to life’s greatest challenges. Edith’s journey is a reminder that we can’t always choose the path that we walk in life, but we can always choose the manner in which we walk it.
My friends, if you’re in need of a message of hope and the reminder that, in spite of the headwinds, the best is yet to come, this conversation is for you.
