Lisa Braver Moss

Lisa Braver Moss is the author of the novels The Measure of His Grief (Notim Press, 2010) and the award-winning Shrug (She Writes Press, 2019). Her essays have appeared in the Huffington Post, Tikkun, Parents, Lilith, and many other publications.

Hear Lisa’s insightful takes on family life when one or more parents is mentally disturbed and abusive — and how children of such a family can become not only survivors, but advocates, torch bearers to light the way, and givers of voice to others. How does one family’s intergenerational trauma stop with one talented writer, mother, and wife? Drop in with Lisa Braver Moss and come away heartened and sensitized to this very real problem
