Family Dynamics and Lashon Hara with Yocheved Davidowitz
Family Dynamics and Lashon Hara with Yocheved Davidowitz
Jul 10, 2023
49:20
It’s the Three Weeks, and we knew we wanted to provide something meaningful for us all to help us get in the mindset of this unique period in the Jewish calendar. As we’re leading up to Tisha B’Av, we really should be thinking more about mitzvos bein adam l’chaveiro since sinas chinam, baseless hatred, is the reason given for the destruction of the second Beis Hamikdash. So we asked Yocheved Davidowitz, licensed counselor, a certified nutrition coach, writer, educator and the host of the podcast, A Deeper Conversation, to join us on this DMC and come up with the topic. Yocheved hosts Wake up Words with the Chofetz Chaim Heritage Foundation and runs a daily Shmiras HaLashon chat for hundreds of women worldwide. One of the areas she’s been focusing on lately is bein adam l’chaveiro when it comes to those closest to us: our family. We knew that was a topic we wanted to learn more about. In this episode, we discuss: Yocheved’s experience running a daily Shmiras haLashon chat for women worldwide Why she’s lately been interested in the topic of bein adam l’chaveiro as it applies to family members Do we have a get-out-of-jail pass when it comes to speaking lashon hara about family? The Torah’s perspective on venting to family members or confidants about family members We’d love to hear from you.

Welcoming the Guests: Mindfulness of Emotions (3 Weeks)
Welcoming the Guests: Mindfulness of Emotions (3 Weeks)
Jul 15, 2023
35:18
In this week’s Pause™ cast we bring our attention to the practice of mindful awareness of our emotions. Emotions are there to guide us – sometimes to point us in the right direction, and at other times to highlight which path we should not be taking. The problem is never with what we are feeling; the only problem is with how we relate to that feeling. Quote: The problem is never with what we are feeling; the only problem is with how we relate to that feeling. Meditation: Mindfulness of our Emotions (All the Feels) For further questions, comments, observations and feedback please be in touch with Dr. Benjy @ drbenjy.com Pause with us with the whatsApp status that’s there for your mental health and wellness.

Shloimi and Feige Steinmetz, self-proclaimed “simple Jews” from Montreal, were catapulted into international ambassadors for Emunah and resilience after the tremendous tragedy in Meron, where their son Dovi perished along with 44 others. Shloime’s eulogy for his son set a campaign that would change people’s lives in motion, leading to the formation of the Ani Maamin Initiative. Thousands of people have developed deeper Emunah and Bitachon through the different projects of the initiative, and the Steinmetzs’ story of creating light amid terrible darkness continues to strengthen and inspire everyone who encounters them.

Spiritual Self-Care with Adina Shmidman
Spiritual Self-Care with Adina Shmidman
Jul 24, 2023
1:28:04
This episode of DMC is about spiritual self-care. This means, what are we doing to take care of our neshama? What are we doing to invest in our connection to Yiddishkeit and Hashem? Because if we don’t take care of our spiritual side, we know what happens. It’s the same with when we don’t take care of our bodies, or our relationships, or our linen closets…the law of entropy entails and things start falling apart. Our guest for this deep meaningful conversation is Rebbetzin Dr. Adina Shmidman, the founding director of the OU Women’s Initiative. This topic is one near and dear to Rebbetzin Shmidman’s heart as her life’s work is creating ways for women all over North America to stay connected to their communities and their Torah learning. Rebbetzin Shmidman understands why spiritual self-care is so vital to our well-being as Jewish women. On this episode we discuss: How Rebbetzin Dr. Shmidman became the director of the OU Women’s Initiative Her goals for Orthodox women in her capacity as an organizational leader An initiative she’s particularly proud of that she was able to implement in this role The definition of spiritual self-care and why she’s passionate about it The main challenges frum women face in practicing spiritual self-care Rebbetzin Dr. Shmidman’s favorite self-care practice We’d love to hear from you.

We all know the frightening reality facing Jewish students on college campuses today. The stories are horrifying and unbelievable. We want this episode to be somewhat uplifting as well, and that’s why we’ve invited Mariel Goldstein to speak with us. Mariel is the director of women’s education at MEOR Maryland, a campus-based organization dedicated to extending Jewish learning opportunities to the broadest spectrum of Jewish students at the University of Maryland, College Park. University of Maryland College Park is the fourth largest public university by Jewish population. According to Hilllel, there are 6000 Jewish students on campus, 20% of the student population. So Mariel is in the trenches, supporting Jewish students who are struggling right now – and doing her best to support herself as well since October 7th. On this episode we discuss: The impact of October 7 on the lives of the Jewish students Mariel works with Rising anti-semitism on campus and how it’s impacted University of Maryland The safe haven MEOR provides and the increased interest in programming and Jewish pride The biggest takeaway for college students from this current experience Mariel’s thoughts about the future of Jewish college students on secular campuses Show notes: Donate to Meor’s campaign to support Jewish students on campus during these challenging times! https://causematch.com/meor23/goldstein Meor Maryland’s website https://www.meormarylandonline.org/ DMC YEARLY SPONSOR: Town Appliance https://www.townappliance.com/ 1-866-309-8119 https://www.townappliance.com/pages/contact-us DMC EPISODE SPONSOR: Amudim https://unitetoheal.com/ https://amudim.org/ 646-517-0222 646-517-0221 [email protected]

Firsthand Witness: The Uncensored Truth About Oct. 7 | ZAKA's Yossi Landau
Dec 2, 2023
1:02:40
This week we sat down and spoke with Yossi Landau from ZAKA. Founded in 1995, Zaka's volunteers arrive at the scene with one mission: to recover the bodies of those who die in an unnatural way. In Judaism, a person must be buried whole. ZAKA's crews work tirelessly to recover as many body parts as they can from the scenes they are called to. It's considered the greatest mitzvah a Jew can perform for another person. Yossi Landau has been with the organization for 33 years and has been all over the world. Yossi was a first responder on October 7th. In this episode he tells us what he experienced. (Viewers discretion is advised.) ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- They are still there! Another day, and another, and Zaka volunteers are still out in the field. Among the smoking wrecks that were homes, the remnants of the horrid inferno, they are not giving up until the last of the murdered is brought to proper burial. The houses are empty, but they are still there, at risk to their own lives, doing the holy work of honoring the bodies. And where are we? We must stand by them. We must help Zaka now!

Food As Fuel with Esti Asher
Food As Fuel with Esti Asher
Dec 18, 2023
1:18:24
We hope all our listeners had a wonderful Chanukah! With any holiday or yom tov, there is that week after when we’re trying to get bedtimes back to normal, work schedules back to normal, and our eating schedules back to normal. But this year, we haven’t really had the luxury of “getting back to normal.” Nonetheless, taking care of ourselves during stressful and disruptive situations is extremely important. We can’t get completely consumed and not be able to take care of our responsibilities – and ourselves. It’s so easy to put our care on the back burner. And if we aren’t eating properly, that can impact our psychological state too. It’s during stressful times that we’re more likely to not tend to our needs (sometimes we even think “how can we” with the news) – but we must. Esti Asher, a registered dietitian based out of northern Israel, joins us for this DMC. Esti provides us with some mindset and perspective shifts to help us understand the concept of food as fuel as well as deal with any negative feelings associated with our holiday splurging. She also provides tips to help us get back to a more balanced everyday eating routine. Esti’s approach is practical, positive, and holistic. She focuses on many factors that contribute to overall health. Esti places a strong emphasis on healthy habits and behaviors that are optimal to reach your ultimate health and well-being potential. Most importantly, Esti encourages self-awareness, self-care and self-love. On this episode of DMC, we discuss: The main principles that guide Esti’s work as a nutritionist Mindset and practical tips to help us get back on track with our eating post chag Dealing with negative feelings associated with splurging The concept of food as fuel The most helpful approach for those of us who are motivated to adopt a more healthy lifestyle Esti’s take on diet culture Esti’s website https://www.estiashernutrition.com/ DMC YEARLY SPONSOR: Town Appliance https://www.townappliance.com/ 1-866-309-8119 https://www.townappliance.com/pages/contact-us

Holding Down the Fort with Nina Tokayer
Holding Down the Fort with Nina Tokayer
Apr 1, 2024
51:02
So many of us in Chutz LaAretz want to understand what it’s like for the women who are holding down the fort in Eretz Yisrael with their husbands off fighting this war. These mothers and wives are true heroes, taking care of everything without the support and presence of their husbands who are risking their lives to protect our Holy Land. We want to learn and know more about what these special women – our Jewish sisters in Eretz Yisrael – are going through. So we asked Nina Tokayer on the podcast to DMC with us. Nina lives in Pardes Chana with her husband Yoni and children. Many of you may be familiar with Yonina which is the name of her singing duo together with her husband. Yoni was just released from miluim – reserves– this February. We’re excited to talk to Nina about her music as well as about what this experience has been like for her and her children. On this DMC we discuss: How Yonina got started and has evolved October 7th for the Tokayers Nina’s experience as the wife of a reservist How Nina’s identity as a musician impacted her experience Nina’s message of chizuk for fellow wives of soldiers Nina’s message of chizuk for Jewish women outside of Israel We love hearing from our listeners.

Jen Airley | Mother of Fallen IDF Soldier's Message To The World
Jen Airley | Mother of Fallen IDF Soldier's Message To The World
Jan 6, 2024
1:09:15
The Airley’s made aliyah from the United States in 2006. Binyamin attended yeshiva, spent time in Eilat, and worked on the family’s farm, including most Shabbats. Binyomin Airley joined the front lines of the battle VS Hamas to secure the land of Israel and protect the Jewish people. He unfortunately was killed in battle. At his shloshim, a moving kumzitz led by Shlomo Katz began with people singing softly in their seats and evolved into heartfelt t’filah with people standing and swaying, arm in arm, many with tears in their eyes. Jennifer interrupted the singing in the middle of a song and commented that she noticed too many sad faces in the room. She explained that this was not meant to be an evening of crying. It was meant to be an evening to honor Binyamin and open our hearts using songs for t’filah. She begged that people open the gates of Shamayim with t’filah b’simchah, even with the pain. Jennifer teaches by example how to keep going. She is leading the way and bringing her community along with her. The Airley's Emunah and Bitachon has been on full display since Binyomin was suddenly killed in battle. ►Ceremian (Alpert and Associates) Call Moshe Alpert!

Special Edition: Dvir and Maya Rosenfeld | How We Survived Hamas's Attack On Our Home
Jan 9, 2024
1:15:15
On October 7th, Hamas terrorists stormed into the home of Hadar and Itay Berdichevsky in Kibbutz Kfar Aza, one of the Israeli communities along the Gaza border. Hadar and Itay— both 30 years old—were butchered in their own home. Miraculously, their 10-month-old twins survived. The babies were found—rescued by the IDF—14 hours later, crying in their cots. Their parents’ bodies lie in pools of blood around them. Maya and Dvir also survived the massacre on Kfar Aza that day. They hid in their safe room for more than 24 hours with their own baby boy—holding their hands over his mouth to keep him quiet—as they heard the terrible sounds of their neighborhood being turned into a slaughterhouse around them. Please help the Weiner and Rosenfeld families from Kfar Aza rebuild. https://www.migdalohrusa.org/wiener-and-rosenfeld Sponsor ► Yeshiva Nishmas HaTorah Some things are just AS GOOD AS IT GETS =Nishmas Hatorah Our building is Nishm*AS GOOD AS DONE!* Finish our building.

Developing a Geula Mindset with Faigy Blumstein
Jan 15, 2024
1:30:09
These days, it seems Geula is very much on our mind. Geula, as our guest Faigy Blumstein explains, is very much a mindset as well hat needs developing. Geula, redemption, will happen with Hashem’s help in the future, but it isn’t something that we passively wait for. Every day we yearn for the Geula, and there are things we can do right now to put into place as an expression of that yearning – and as a means to an end to bring the Geula closer! Faigy, with her signature Thank You Hashem attitude, gives us the low down on how to make this a reality in our daily lives. On this DMC we discuss: How Faigy and her husband started the TYH movement Faigy’s passion for teaching and the topics she’s loving to give over these days What is a “Geula mindset” and how we can develop it Why developing a Geula mindset is so critical these days during the challenges facing Am Yisrael Thank you for the recent flurry of emails!

Tziri Preis is one of those people who is living her dream. Classroom teacher turned podcaster and “General” of the Tehillim Army nightly Zoom and livestream, she reaches thousands of children (and their parents) each night. The Tehillim Army was Tziri’s response to October 7th, and little did she know what a need it would fill and the impact it would make. Tziri’s story has so much to teach us about doing our part to fill a need as well as making dreams come true. On this DMC we discuss: Tziri’s journey from the classroom to her InKredible Kids podcast and her “InKredible” Tehillim Army initiative The feedback she receives and the impact of the Tehillim Army How Tziri’s lifelong dream came true, and the takeaway for our listeners How we can also see Hashem guiding our work How we can all make a difference in our own way We love hearing from our listeners.

Mrs. Tzili Schneider | The GROUNDBREAKING Project To END Charedi & Secular Strife In Israel
Mrs. Tzili Schneider | The GROUNDBREAKING Project To END Charedi & Secular Strife In Israel
Feb 10, 2024
1:13:16
Tzili Schneider is a veteran teacher, a member of the Orthodox mainstream, the mother of eleven and a woman who cares. Deeply. Tzili grew up in Meah Shearim surrounded by all shades and hues of Jewish life. She remembers as a little girl dancing joyfully with soldiers following the capture of the Kosel at the end of the six-day war. As she grew up, Tzili noted that the general atmosphere in Israel outside the sheltered alleyways of her youth was diametrically different. She began to encounter hostility and mistrust, dissension and stigma. In fact, when she worked as a teacher, she rode the public bus every day alongside another staff member. But they never spoke because Tzili was religious and the other woman was not. Tzili desperately wanted to do something to bring her people together again. In 2012, she fulfilled her dream. She founded Kesher Yehudi, a groundbreaking platform for diverse sectors to meet and connect through Torah learning. Kesher Yehudi welcomes all segments of the Jewish nation with love, providing the support and tools necessary to foster personal connections and long-term unity. With her relentless determination, Tzili has created an unprecedented movement that has transformed lives and changed Israeli society for the better. ►Toveedo The Jewish videos your kids will love all in one happy place!

The Kichels with Bracha Stein & Chani Judowitz

1:27:01
Purim is on its way, so we’ve invited who we think are two of the funniest (and maybe cleverest) ladies to grace the pages of Mishpacha Magazine, and that’s Chani Judowitz and Bracha Stein, the masterminds of The Kichels’ comics. We say that The Kichels is social commentary in its best form. They manage to point out silly things about frum life in a way that’s highly relatable, while doing it in such a loving and playful way. It’s like mussar and validation all in one hilarious package. (Oh, and by the way, you can’t miss our very special “guests” this episode to provide some extra laughs this Adar season.) On this DMC we discuss: How the Kichels were born Chani and Bracha’s process of collaboration Their goals in starting the comic strip Their reaction to its popularity What they think the Kichels has accomplished in starting communal conversations Their funniest, most loved, and most controversial strips What’s next for the Kichels We love hearing from our listeners.

In this Season One finale for the Pause™ cast, the topic we focus on is hope. We always come back to the beginning and that beginning is hope- The beginning is always hope. How can we effectively address the current circumstances, both for ourselves and others, while also contributing to the betterment of our world? And the answer I kept and keep coming back to is hope.

Wiring Our Children for Happiness with Beth Perkel
Wiring Our Children for Happiness with Beth Perkel
Aug 7, 2023
1:12:33
Being happy is an aspiration that is thrown around so easily and often, we wonder if it’s really even a goal in life. But happiness is crucial for healthy children, and we’re going to be talking all about it with our guest, Beth Perkel. Beth is an author, freelance writer and essayist. Her recent book is called Light At the Beginning of the Tunnel: Wiring our Children for Happiness. Beth believes that most children need to be taught the “talent” of happiness, that it doesn’t happen automatically, and that it’s the central key that enables them to lead successful, productive and meaningful lives. In her book, she synthesizes deep concepts from ancient wisdom, the most up-to-date psychological methods, scientific studies and research and weaves them into a practical, personalized system for us and our children. In the episode we discuss: -Beth’s journey as a writer, and how she learned to dig deep and be vulnerable -Why she wrote a book on parenting, and how her approach is unique -What happiness looks like in different people -Her favorite chapters in the book -Advice for parents with children who are “not happy” -Examples of parenting wins from her own life Beth’s book and speaker recommendations: Beth’s book - Light at the Beginning of the Tunnel: Wiring our Children for Happiness (best to purchase from Feldheim or Mosaica) Rav Wolbe’s Planting and Building Rebbetzin Spetner as a parenting educator Stress Less: Stop Stressing, Start Living by: Kate Hanley The Power of Now by: Eckhart Tolls Rebbetzin Dina Schoonmaker’s shiurim We’d love to hear from you.

Torah, Psychology & Religious Overwhelm with Chani Juravel
Torah, Psychology & Religious Overwhelm with Chani Juravel
Sep 18, 2023
1:14:45
Yom Kippur is our most serious and arguably most important Yom Tov in the Jewish calendar. But what happens if our feeling of overwhelm about the seriousness of the day (and the practical physical requirements of the season) robs us from feeling truly connected? More broadly, how does our mental health impact our Torah observance in general? When we're feeling anxious, depressed or overwhelmed, is Yiddishkeit simply something else on the to-do list that may get pushed off for another day? When we discussed tackling this topic, we knew it needed to be with someone firmly rooted both in the worlds of psychology and Torah. And that’s why we turned to Chani Juravel, LCSW. Chani shares her insights on how our psychological/emotional state plays a huge role in religious life. With her extensive experience as a therapist and Torah educator, Chani's passion is the intersection between Torah and psychology. She also explains to us the Torah-true nature of therapy, how it can be fused with our spirituality, and how we find models of so many therapeutic tools and principles in Tanach, particularly from Hashem's model. We hope this episode enriches your Yom Kippur. Wishing all our listeners a Gmar Chasima Tova. We’d love to hear from you.

Chizuk from the Holy Land with Dini Coopersmith

1:04:18
Like everyone right now, no matter where you live, our everyday lives are not the same due to the tragic unfolding of events in Eretz Yisrael. Certainly, our brothers and sisters in Israel are facing the most formidable challenges. Those of us watching and davening from afar are challenged in different ways, but challenged nonetheless. Eretz Yisrael and Am Yisrael are constantly on our minds, as we try to get back to whatever our regular life and work looks like here in America. For this episode, we wanted to DMC with someone in Eretz Yisrael who can share with us her experiences, insight and chizuk about the current matzav. Those of us in chutz laaretz feel so far away, many are feeling helpless, but maybe this DMC will give us the opportunity to feel that closeness that we are longing for. We speak with Dini Coopersmith of Maalot Dafna who shares with us what life has been like in Eretz Yisrael the past week and a half. Through this interview, we get a glimpse into the clarity, emunah and bitachon that is so characteristic of the special Jewish people living in the Holyland. In this DMC we discuss: Dini’s experiences when the sirens went of Shmini Atzeres morning What life is like right now living through this war The general feeling and morale in Israel currently Dini’s connection to the communities in the South through her Women’s Reconnection Trips How Dini is witnessing the unity of the Jewish people at this time The feelings surrounding outside threats to Israel Chizuk for those of us in Chutz La’aretz We love to hear from you.

Opening Our Hearts and Homes with Sarah Levy
Opening Our Hearts and Homes with Sarah Levy
Nov 6, 2023
51:25
We’re thinking about all of our listeners during this extremely challenging time for the Jewish people worldwide, and here at DMC, we’re committed to providing content for you that will be helpful and hopefully uplifting. There are many heroes in this war, and some of them are the special individuals in Eretz Yisrael who have done whatever they can to support their fellow brothers and sisters who have been displaced from their homes due to the war. We’re privileged to have been connected with Sarah Levy who lives in Ramot and has opened up her home and heart to a displaced family from Southern Israel.

Shannon Nuszen | Ex-Christian Missionary Reveals Path to Judaism
Shannon Nuszen | Ex-Christian Missionary Reveals Path to Judaism
Mar 15, 2025
1:24:28
From Evangelical Missionary to Orthodox Jew: This is Shannon Nuszen's Unbelievable Journey! In this powerful interview, Shannon Nuszen shares her extraordinary transformation from being an evangelical missionary—trained to convert Jews—to embracing Orthodox Judaism. Raised in a fundamentalist Christian family, Shannon later joined the Christian messianic movement, working with missionary groups targeting Jews, but eventually converted to Judaism and now regrets her past involvement. What led her to question her beliefs? How did her deep dive into Jewish texts change everything? What challenges did she face in leaving Christianity and converting to Judaism? With over 15 years in the counter-missionary field, she educates Jewish communities about missionary tactics. She founded Beyneynu, an organization that monitors missionary activity and raises awareness among Jewish leaders. Now, through her organization Beyneynu, she works to protect Jewish communities from deceptive missionary tactics. This is an important mission, as the there are more and more Jews converting to Christianity. In 2015, there were 15,000 Jews belonging to Messianic congregations here in Israel – as of 2020, there were more than 30,000 reported. Beyneynu has watched this community grow from 120 Messianic congregations and outreach programs to over 300, and there are currently over 200 websites dedicated to converting Jewish people to Christianity, mostly through media in English, Hebrew, Russian, and Arabic. https://beyneynu.com This episode was made possible thanks to our sponsors: ► PZ Deals - Download the app and never pay full price again! https://app.pz.deals/install/mpp ► Eretz Hakodesh - Vote to Keep Israel Holy!

On Lag BaOmer, Mirlana Morris opens up about the life and legacy of her son Donny, who tragically passed away in the Meron disaster of 2021. In a deeply moving conversation, Mirlana shares intimate memories of Donny’s character — a vibrant, kind, and meticulous young man who touched countless lives with his quiet acts of kindness and sincerity. From his early years in Teaneck, NJ, to his transformative time at Yeshivat Sha’alvim in Israel, Donny stood out for his warmth, discipline, and inclusivity. Mirlana recounts the events of that painful night, the confusion and heartbreak that followed, and the powerful stories that emerged afterward — from Donny comforting kids at camp to always making sure to call his grandmother before Shabbat. Despite the unimaginable loss, she speaks about Donny’s enduring impact and how he continues to inspire others through small, thoughtful actions. This emotional tribute is a testament to how one young life can make an everlasting difference.
