14. How Can I Embrace My Family Secrets? With Dani Shapiro

Every family has secrets, but some secrets can change everything
we thought we knew about ourselves. At age 54,
writer Dani Shapiro discovered that the father who raised her
wasn't her biological father. For over two decades, Dani has
written memoirs mining her life for truths and understanding of
what makes us who we are, including how this shocking revelation
reshaped her own identity. This episode’s practice is about
understanding that the past doesn’t define who you are today -
you do.
