In Ep 396 of The Past Has an Afterlife on hmTv, host Gilad Avrahami sits down with HMTC receptionist Tara Collins for a raw, deeply human conversation about memory, family history, and the ways the past continues to echo through our lives. Tara shares how Holocaust survivor stories shaped her understanding of resilience and forgiveness, then traces her own lineage through Irish political turmoil and centuries-old persecution of “wise women” during the witch hunts. With honesty and humor, she reflects on generational trauma, addiction in her family, hard-earned survival, and the choice to heal without becoming hardened. At its heart, this episode explores a simple but powerful idea: remembrance matters, and love, in all its forms, can be the antidote to hate.
