#30 Rwandan Genocide - Life After Tragedy | Dydine Umunyana
What does it take to survive and ultimately thrive after horrible trauma? Today’s guest, my friend, Dydine Umunyana, was a young child in 1994 during the Genocide against the Tutsis in Rwanda. She is a woman who has faced and dealt with severe trauma. Yet, she found healthy ways to ultimately return to a place of love, trust, and safety. How did she do that? We will find out.
Her book, Embracing Survival, is excellent, and has been described as “an important contribution to our understanding of trauma and healing after unbearable brutality and loss.”
Dydine speaks all over the world about her experiences about how she has come out of the worst experiences imaginable and how she now can bring out the best in herself and in others.
So, join Dydine and me as we have a candid conversation about life after genocide.
