We know that there are unhappy situations that cannot be changed. Sometimes, there are no easy solutions and we’re forced to live with the reality that Hashem has given us.

How can we learn to let go of the hurt and anger we may feel deep inside?

Parshas Vayigash- An Honest Man is Hard to Find In this week’s parsha we learn of Yosef’s impeccable honesty as he personally oversaw each and every sale during the years of famine. Although his behavior went above and beyond, as Torah Jews we can certainly use Yosef’s yashrus as an inspiration for our own business dealings. In this shmuz, Rabbi Shafier discusses some common pitfalls that can occur when in the workplace or handling money, and has a sobering message for those that think they could never be guilty of gezel.

Live your truth. Love is love. You do you. You’re worth it. Just do it. These are some of the phrases common in today’s culture. The problem is, they are completely at odds with Torah hashkafa. Lo sachmod beis rayecha. Lo sachmod aishes rayecha. Do not desire your friend’s house. Do not desire your friend’s wife. In fact, don’t desire anything that belongs to him. So says the aseres hadibros in this week’s parsha. But why not? Society cries. ‘How can I deny my feelings? Why should I oppress my love for this person? Why shouldn’t I have the house I want, the car I want? Afterall, I can split the payments, put it on the credit card…’This week's Shmuz on the Parsha invites you to embrace a complete paradigm shift. The Torah tells us we can and must control our thinking, our emotions and our actions. We are held accountable to a high standard. How can we train our brain to become more elevated, more holy and simply nicer people? Catch this week’s shmuz and prepare to become a better version… of yourself.

Mordechai’s timings were extraordinary. He demanded that Esther risk her life and approach Achashverosh, even though Achasverosh was imminently due to summon her. He refused to delay a national taanis, and instead called for Klal Yisroel to fast from the first day of Pesach, forgoing the zechus and mitzvas aseh of achilas matzah. What was Mordechai’s cheshbon? And what does his reasoning teach us for our own lives? In the second class on Megillas Esther, learn why Mordechai’s rebuke is so on point.

Esther stands at the threshold of the throne room, prepared to forfeit her life in this world and the next. Instead, she is assisted by three melachim, achieves ruach hakodesh and is the catalyst for Klal Yisroel’s eventual salvation. Aside from the obvious message that Hashem can always flip things around in an instant, there are many other life lessons to be learnt. Firstly, Esther’s people skills are exemplary. Want to ask for a raise? Just follow Esther’s three point plan on how to submit a request. Need chizuk in following daas Torah? Use Esther as an example. And if we want a clear warning on how not to behave we need look no further than Haman. His relentless drive for kavod shows us how if a person doesn’t control his middos, he’s destined to be utterly miserable in this world. It’s all here.

The Shmuz on the Parsha: Parshas Terumah- How Much Histadlus Should I Do?
Feb 23, 2023
54:22
This week's parsha is about the creation of the menorah. The menorah was destined to be made through miracles. So why did Hashem give Moshe instructions on how to make it? What was the purpose of Moshe's effort? Knowing the balance between bitachon and hishtadlus is something we all struggle with. Health, shidduchim, parnassah...how much effort should I do? What if too much histadlus is driving me crazy? Wouldn't a real baal bitachon leave it all to Hashem? In this clarifying shiur, Rabbi Shafier exposes some crucial misconceptions. If you're wondering how to balance your life according to the Torah, this Shmuz is for you. You'll learn how to set goals, make money and pay those bills- without losing sight of the ratzon Hashem.

Ki Sisa: For the Love of Money
Ki Sisa: For the Love of Money
Mar 8, 2023
50:38
In today’s society, you are relentlessly bombarded with two fallacies: One, that money equals happiness and two, that your sense of self should be defined by your net worth. The Torah rejects both of these ideas. Yet we see from this week’s parsha that attraction to money is something inherent in the briah. In this uncomfortably relevant Shmuz, Rabbi Shafier encourages you to take a long hard look at how you judge yourself and others- are your attitudes towards money in line with Torah hashkafa? Or are you constantly pursuing the next best thing, hoping that it will give you the elusive satisfaction for which we all crave? This podcast has been graciously sponsored by JewishPodcasts.fm.
