Miri shares how her upbringing in Israel and her family history as a third-generation Holocaust survivor shaped her work, and she explains the difference between resilience and post-traumatic growth, focusing on how values-based action and meaning-making can help people move from surviving to thriving after trauma. They also discuss what many Jews have experienced since October 7, including traumatic invalidation in therapy spaces, academic settings, and public life, and why naming the harm is a key step toward healing. The conversation ends with Miri’s work in radicalization prevention through Parents for Peace, including warning signs for families and why antisemitism can appear across extremist ideologies, making this a powerful episode about mental health, advocacy, and reclaiming agency.
