Description

In this extraordinary episode of The HEAL Podcast, we bring you a story that will touch your heart and inspire your soul. Join us as we delve into the remarkable life of 95-year-old Dr. Edith Eva Eger, a survivor of Auschwitz, distinguished clinical psychologist, and bestselling author. Edith's life's journey is a testament to the incredible power of resilience, healing, and the unwavering human spirit. At just 16 years old, she and her family were transported to the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp where she would barely survive the horrors of the Holocaust. After being liberated and immigrating to the United States, she embarked on her own healing journey which led to a career in psychology and a deep desire to help others break free from victimhood and become a survivor.   Accompanied by her grandson Jordan, who helps her navigate the tech and sometimes awkward world of ZOOM, Edie shares her insights on how we can all harness the power within us to overcome trauma and transform our lives.   In this episode, we touch on Dr. Eger's most recent book, The Gift: 12 Lessons to Save Your Life. These 12 lessons shed enormous light on the transformative power of choice.  She reminds us that even in the face of unimaginable trauma, the power to choose how we respond remains within our grasp, igniting the path towards healing and living a fulfilling life.    Dr. Eger leaves us with a message of hope, encouraging us to embrace our wounds as gifts that unlock our very potential, so we can lead a life of courage, empowerment, and purpose. I truly believe if Edie can survive the unfathomable evil of Auschwitz, and then go onto thrive in all areas of life, we can overcome ANYTHING.    LINKS Dr. Eger's Website: https://dreditheger.com/ Dr. Eger On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.editheger/ 'The Gift' on Amazon - https://amzn.to/44lyeCa 'The Choice' on Amazon - https://amzn.to/3OIARIH Unlocking Your Potential Course: https://yoursoulsearch.org/unlocking-your-potential Forgiveness Course: https://yoursoulsearch.org/forgiveness SHOW CHAPTERS: 0:00 Introduction 2:05 Dr. Eger's Personal Story 7:15 The Power of Hope & Flexibility 10:00 The Choices We Make & The Permission We Give 16:00 The Love-Time Connection 20:15 Processing & Finding Forgiveness 31:45 Overcoming Survivor's Guilt & Imprisonment 40:50 Dr. Eger's Advice For Today's World 44:50 Jordan's Favorite Dr. Eger Story
