"She brings a rare combination of expertise, empathy, and clarity to her work. Her voice is not only needed—it is transformative. Her ability to interweave rigorous research with her personal story created a powerful and deeply humanizing exploration of traumatic invalidation and its far-reaching impacts—particularly as it relates to Jewish identity and experience. She is one of the most moving and dynamic speakers I’ve encountered. "
