Why our family secrets need to be told with Galit Atlas

Об эпизоде

I have an incredible episode for you today. My guest, Dr. Galit Atlas, is a psychoanalyst, clinical supervisor in private practice in New York City and a leader in the field of relational psychoanalysis. She has published three books for clinicians and numerous articles and book chapters, including Her New York Times publication “A Tale of Two Twins” which was the winner of a 2016 Gradiva Award. Her new book Emotional Inheritance is now being translated into 17 languages. In this episode, We talk about Emotional inheritance, which is the name Galit gives to the trauma passed down to us from previous generations. As you might know, I am fascinated, passionate and really curious about generational work, specifically how pain gets passed down the generations. And while it can be a hard topic, for sure, I think it's ultimately really freeing to see ourselves as part of a way bigger picture of our lineage. It's just not talked about enough with parents and mothers. I've done some amazing episodes on this topic, a couple that really stand out are with Gabor Mate and Julia Samuel, so definitely go back and listen to those if you haven't already.
