The Holocaust in Serbia: Julie Brill’s Uncovered History

Welcome to Wellbeing and Career World Podcast, Today’s guest, Julie Brill, brings us on a powerful journey—one rooted in memory, mystery, and the legacy of silence. As a child, Julie lived with a contradiction: she knew the Nazis had killed her grandfather in Yugoslavia, yet believed the Holocaust had somehow bypassed his hometown of Belgrade. That tension sparked a lifelong quest for answers. With few survivors left to speak for the Jewish community of Serbia, Julie became a voice for what was nearly lost to history. Her work, including her ongoing project Hidden in Plain Sight, sheds light on the overlooked chapters of the Holocaust in the Balkans. Her writing has appeared in Haaretz, The Forward, Balkan Insight, and more, and she brings these stories into classrooms through the Living Links program. But Julie’s story doesn’t end there—she’s also a doula, a lactation consultant, and the editor of Round the Circle: Doulas Share their Experiences. She lives just outside Boston and is the proud mother of two adult daughters. #JulieBrill #HiddenInPlainSight #LivingLinks #wellbeing #serbia #holocaust Contact Julie: https://juliebrill.com/ Instagram:   / juliesbrill   Book: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/hidd...
