I was honored to appear as Aro’s guest, where I shared the deeply personal journey behind my transition into writing Holocaust-era historical fiction. We discussed how the discovery of decades-old family letters completely shifted my path as an author, counselor, and theologian, forcing me to navigate the immense emotional and ethical responsibility of translating real human trauma and resilience into a powerful story. He beautifully guided the conversation touching on my research process, spiritual insights gained along the way, and my passionate belief in why legacy and preserving forgotten voices matter more than ever.
