EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Modern Wisdom, featuring Heather Morris and Chris Williamson, Lessons In Listening From The Tattooist Of Auschwitz | Heather Morris | Modern Wisdom Podcast 227 explores Holocaust Testimony, Deep Listening, And Stories That Create Hope Heather Morris recounts how a casual yes to meeting a stranger led to The Tattooist of Auschwitz and a life-changing friendship with survivor Lale Sokolov. She explains the listening skills honed in hospital social work that enabled her to patiently unlock his traumatic memories without notes or recordings. The conversation widens into survivor guilt, the power of individual stories to make vast atrocities emotionally graspable, and how readers’ letters inspired her follow‑up book, Stories of Hope. Morris and Williamson close by distilling practical lessons on listening to elders, children, traumatized people, and to ourselves in an increasingly noisy, disconnected world.
