This episode welcomes bestselling author and host of the podcast Family Secrets, Dani Shapiro.
Dani and Rabbi David explore how Dani’s mid-life discovery that her beloved father was not her biological parent reshaped her world, brought clarity to a lifelong sense of disconnection, and inspired her prolific creativity. With honesty and depth, Dani reflects on the power of secrets, the concept of the “unthought known,” and the healing that comes from facing the truth.
