About this episode
What can a man who survived the horrors of Auschwitz teach us about finding purpose? In the darkest corners of human history, psychiatrist Viktor Frankl discovered a profound truth: we cannot always control what happens to us, but we can always control how we respond. Man's Search for Meaning is more than a harrowing memoir; it’s a life-changing exploration of our deepest human drive. Frankl's timeless classic is a powerful lesson on suffering, resilience, and the ultimate freedom to find meaning in all circumstances, offering hope against all odds.
