Episode 25: A Lesson In Patience-Bitachon and Emunah
Episode 25: A Lesson In Patience-Bitachon and Emunah
Feb 18, 2024
6:33
I believe having patience is directly related to Bitachon and Emunah. Waiting and knowing that you are meant to be waiting is hard. But nobody said working on oneself is easy. My challenge for this week is to repeat, Hashem cares about me, nothing is too small, and He will take care of it.

Moderation is necessary- you cannot just become an amazing person overnight. Growth is a slow process- be patient! My challenge to you all is to choose what you want to work on, something you've always wanted to but it felt too monumental to even think about starting, and try and make a plan on how it can be realistically attained. If you think you have an answer to my question, shoot me an email at [email protected]. I would love to hear your thoughts!

Having time just by yourself is extremely important to build your internal world. Without an internal world, it is hard to work on yourself. It is also hard to work on yourself when negative self-talk is involved. You are amazing! Never forget that. My challenge to you all this week is to find time to be alone, for however long you need. ALSO: I just realized that this is season 2 episode 8, and this will be released on Channuka! I just find that interesting :)

Negative self-talk is detrimental, aka BAD. People are generally meaner to themselves than to others. Additionally, Looking back, reflect on any growth you had, on the things you went through to become who you are today, and who you keep becoming. My challenge for this week is to combat negative self-talk in yourself with compassion and feel proud. I would love to hear your stories! Email me at [email protected]. I apologize for the audio, I don't know why there is such an echo.

Take a deep breath. It will all be okay. It is super difficult to not compare yourself or your achievements to other people. You have been through a lot to get to where you are, and you are on a different road. Your accomplishments are important, although to you they might not seem like a lot. This is especially true regarding older things- it has been so long since then, it doesn't feel like as big of a deal. My challenge to you all, and it is a big one this week, is to make a list of your accomplishments. Not other people, YOURS. This could be physical, spiritual, emotional, or psychological.

Oftentimes, we use distractions as a way to not think. This can be indicative of a bigger, underlying issue. My challenge to you all is to make a list of things you can control, things others can control, and things no one except Hashem can control. Hopefully, this should put things into perspective and help you be equipped to handle new starts. New mic, new intro sound, I would love to know what you think! Shoot me an email at [email protected] with feedback, questions, and comments.

Have you ever felt like you were the least qualified in the room? Me too. Have you ever considered... you are amazing? My challenge to ya'll is to recognize when you are what you are and not dismiss your traits and talent. Also, I know the past few episodes have had different music each time, or none at all. I switched recording websites and the new one doesn't have the same audio as before. Imirtza Hashem, the music will stay the same in the future.

Episode 29: What I Wish I Knew Sooner About My Subconscious
Apr 28, 2024

Things from our childhood have deep lasting impressions on us, affecting our fears, insecurities, hopes, and dreams. We may not realize it until years later, but we internalize much more than we think. For as long as I can remember, I have been under the belief that I am extremely forgettable. Therefore, I have been subconsciously using my talents to try and be recognized, stand out, and be different. Realizing that as the source has allowed me to start letting go of the shadows that follow me, so I can work on my projects unencumbered by the feelings of inadequacy. We need to be enough for ourselves, it does not matter what others think. As long as you are doing what's best for you, that is what really counts. Imirtza Hashem, after Pesach I will be interviewing a dating coach. If you have any questions you want me to ask her, you can reach me at [email protected]

If you want to accomplish and do great things, you need to work really hard. There are no shortcuts to success, and winning the lottery does not guarantee your future stability. If you don't invest, save, or plan, the money will slip through your fingers. Generally, you can tell how much effort and work has been put into something, and this can reflect positively or negatively on YOU. What type of reputation do you want to have? My challenge to you all for this week, is to make a to do list every day and check off at least one thing every day.

Change is good for us- It's incredibly hard, while at times seems suspiciously easy. How we react is up to us. Are you going through a change right now? My challenge for you all this week is dependent on your current situation in life. If you are going through a change period, then my challenge is to take time for yourself to spend some time on yourself and self-care, to make things seem less chaotic than they are, and also to think about your circumstance and how you are growing/what you can work on. If nothing in your life is changing, then my challenge is to think of a past time you went through a change/transitional period in your life and make a list of 3 ways you grew.

Jul 9, 2023

This episode does not have music, in contrast, to prove a point. “A moment of silence can silence the heavenly prosecutors.” You can annul negative things planned to happen to you by staying quiet. Why is silence so important to Hashem? The next time you want to say something, anything, wait 2 seconds before responding. Do this once a day, every day this week. If you have any examples where being quiet helped you, I would love to hear about it! Shoot me an email at [email protected], Have a great week, and work to be a better you than you were yesterday!

Having high expectations almost always leads to disappointment. How do I know when it's my expectations that are too high? A good starting point, if you want to grow and be better, is to expect better of yourself. My challenge to you all for this week, is to ask yourself, “Do I have expectations of others? What are these expectations? Is it causing me or others to be frustrated? Am I expected to do certain things or be a certain way? How do I feel about that? Can I try and work on not expecting anything from anyone but myself?” If you have any requests of topics you want me to cover here, then shoot me an email at [email protected]
