Ep. 48: Stand Firm & Keep Moving - Nitzavim Vayeilech 5786 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if you have been holding firmly to the wrong things? In this class, we explore why we often become flexible about the values that should ground us, yet rigid about the habits and patterns that need to change. Nitzavim–Vayeilech teaches us how to stand firm without remaining stuck, and how to enter the new year rooted in what matters while finally moving forward.
Ep. 47: When the Blessing Becomes Normal - Ki Tavo 5786 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when the things you once prayed for become so familiar that you stop seeing them as blessings? Parshat Ki Tavo begins with Bikkurim and ends with a powerful lesson about learning to see again. In this class, we explore gratitude, joy, success, and the danger of getting so used to Hashem’s gifts that they simply become part of the background. Maybe we don’t always need more blessing. Maybe we need new eyes to recognize what Hashem has already given us.
Ep. 46: Ki Teitzei & Elul: Returning to Who You Really Are - Ki Teitzei 5786 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Parshat Ki Teitzei reveals what the neshamah knew before life got noisy, what we picked up along the way, and how the very battles we struggle with can lead us back to ourselves. Elul isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about returning to who you really are.
Ep. 45: Va’etchanan: From Seeing to Hearing - Va’etchanan 5786 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Why does Hashem feel so hidden today? In this Parsha, the Rebbe reveals that our generation wasn’t given less - it was given a different mission. Discover how the journey from seeing to hearing transforms the way we experience Hashem today. ✨ For your to see as I mentioned in class https://www.instagram.com/reel/Da_A0WxOgkL/?igsh=bHoxbzh5bWU1Njg5
Ep. 44: What Happens After the Miracles End? - Devarim 5786 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As the Jewish people prepare to enter Eretz Yisrael, Moshe delivers one final message: the greatest challenge is not finding Hashem in moments of open miracles, but recognizing Him in everyday life. Discover why Sefer Devarim begins with a new voice, a new mission, and a timeless blueprint for bringing Torah into the real world.
