From Auschwitz to the Eiffel Tower : Transgenerational Trauma and Creative Defense with Dr. Agnieszka Piotrowska
[Content Warning]: Child sexual abuse, grooming, domestic abuse
Today, Jan is joined by Dr. Agnieszka Piotrowska, award-winning documentary filmmaker, academic, and psychoanalytic life coach, who is here to discuss trauma, healing, and the power of creative expression. Dr. Agnieszka and Jan explore themes of transgenerational trauma, silence, and the complex legacy of family history, drawing on Dr. Agnieszka’s personal experiences as the granddaughter of an Auschwitz survivor and a survivor of childhood grooming and abuse. The conversation covers her documentary work (such as Married to the Eiffel Tower), the use of creativity as a reparative tool, the pitfalls of "toxic positivity," and the spiritual journey that led her to the Quaker community. Throughout, they emphasize the importance of naming trauma, finding pathways to the light, and helping others through shared vulnerability and support.
