Personal Details

Bio

Emily Wanderer Cohen is an international bestselling author, speaker, coach, and intergenerational trauma expert who helps trauma survivors and their descendants heal and live fuller lives.

A second-generation Holocaust survivor, she knows what it feels like to live with transmitted trauma and has helped hundreds of clients, including descendants of Holocaust survivors as well as other genocides, forced relocations, and severe traumas, reclaim their identity and move forward with their lives.

Emily is the international bestselling author of “From Generation to Generation: Healing Intergenerational Trauma Through Storytelling” and has been featured on BBC Radio, The Huffington Post, The Forward, and Kveller, as well as numerous podcasts that focus on trauma, entrepreneurship, and Jewish issues.

A graduate of University of California at Berkeley, Emily spent nearly three decades in Silicon Valley as a corporate communications executive, working with some of the biggest names in technology.

After hearing from numerous other second-gens (2Gs) that her story was their story too, Emily decided to make healing others her legacy.

Emily’s keen listening and communication skills, as well as her innate ability to uncover the “big a-ha” from even the most technical of engineers, enable her to connect with her clients and help them heal.

Is your employees’ emotional well-being costing you more than you know?

Discussions about the effects of traumatic experiences typically revolve around the personal damage and cost of trauma. What's missing in the narrative is how unresolved trauma impacts the workplace--as well as how to fix it. This talk will describe the common effects of trauma on creativity, productivity, thought processes, ability to manage change, interpersonal capabilities, and more, and give examples of how innovative companies are solving the problem of workplace trauma.
