Not every story begins in safety. In this powerful episode of The Human Side, we sit down with Dr. Emad Rahim—author, educator, and genocide survivor. Born in a Cambodian concentration camp, Emad’s earliest memories are marked by trauma, displacement, and violence. But this is not where his story ends.

With raw honesty and deep insight, Emad shares how he transformed pain into purpose, using education as a tool to rebuild his life and inspire others. From refugee camps to university lecture halls, his journey is a profound reminder of the resilience of the human spirit and the power of second chances.

This episode explores trauma, healing, and the ability to break generational cycles to build something lasting.
