  • Life Is Golden: How Love Survived the Holocaust

    Life Is Golden: How Love Survived the Holocaust
    Jan 19 2026

    Rebecca Nissel grew up in post-Holocaust Vienna, a city still marked by darkness and loss. Yet her childhood was filled with warmth, safety, and joy, intentionally created by parents who had survived the unimaginable and chose love anyway. In this conversation, Rebecca shares what it means to be raised by survivors who refused to pass on fear, how a golden childhood can exist in the shadow of trauma, and why light is not naive, but a deliberate legacy. Drawing from her book Life Is Golden, this episode explores survival, inherited resilience, and the quiet power of love to outlast history.
