The Power of Shared Stories

In this episode of NeuroFaith, Dr. Curt Thompson interviews Dr. Connie Svob, an Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychology at Columbia University. Dr. Svob's research focuses on how memories of life events are shaped and passed down through generations. She looks at how memory, including dreams and involuntary memories, can be affected by trauma, loss, and spirituality. Dr. Svob discusses the idea of memory being a constructed rather than a stored thing, showing how our emotions, identities, and external factors influence what and how we remember. Listen in as she explores the link between memory, hope, and mental health, highlighting the importance of understanding memory's role in shaping our future and overall well-being. Resources:
