Atara Weisberger's book, How To Soul, that she co-authored with Rabbi Dov Lipman, is a groundbreaking guide that blends ancient wisdom with modern insights to help you reconnect with your soul. Through relatable stories, practical exercises and guided meditations, this book provides a roadmap for living authentically and joyfully.

According to Atara, the first thing we need to do in order to live a life full of happiness, is to create an authentic relationship with ourselves. We need to be real with ourselves about who we are--our values and beliefs; our strengths and weaknesses; our likes and dislikes; who we currently are and who we genuinely want to be.

Once we know ourselves, we will begin to let go of judgements. We will stop judging ourselves and start accepting ourselves exactly as we are. Atara says that wherever we are right now is exactly where we need to be. We are ok right now, just as we are. Once we stop judging ourselves, we will stop judging others. Once we accept ourselves, we will be more accepting of others. Change the criticism to curiosity. Get curious and ask yourself questions, instead of beating yourself up about a mistake or a destructive pattern. Find out why you are doing a certain behavior.

Once we connect with ourselves, we need to connect with G-d. We need to know that G-d loves us exactly as we are. Knowing ourselves deeply, and having an intimate connection with Hashem, is the key to living a fulfilled life.

Atara advises us to get in touch with our soul in order to find out who we really are, and in what directly we truly want to go. Our minds are so filled with chaos--thoughts, feelings and emotions all over the place. Once we get our minds and bodies quiet, we can listen into that calm quiet voice. That is the voice of our soul. (The loud, critical voice is never our soul. Don't listen to that voice.)

At the end of our conversation, Atara leads us through a beautiful guided meditation to calm ourselves and guide our thoughts inward so that we can reconnect to our soul.

Rebbetzin Esti Simon, and her husband, Rabbi Sruly run the Chabad Student Centre of Kington, in Kingston, Ontatio, Canada.

Rebbetzin Esti is one of 14 children, and her husband is one of 13 children. Her story about her parents and family is inspiring!

Rebbetzin Esti shares the secrets of the unique power of a woman to lead, inspire, and nurture, in relationships. Rebbetzin Esti tells us that in a relationship, each person has their own strengths. According to the Lubuvitcher Rebbe, women should be partners with their husband in building a Jewish home. By allowing and making space for each person to fulfill the role that they are naturally good at, a dynamic is created where a husband and wife feel like they are contributing to the relationship without being stepped on.

Kabbalah teaches that men are the givers and women are the receivers. The feminine energy is about receiving. A woman receives from a man, and then creates something from that which she received.

Trust and relax, believing that everything comes from Hashem.

The Challah Mom (Anat Ishai) candidly shares her personal Jewish journey of making aliyah to Israel from Toronto, Canada. She speaks about being born in Israel and growing up in Toronto as the daughter of Russian Jews.

The Challah Mom describes the process of how she and her family made the decision to come to Israel for a year during Covid, how they moved back to Toronto afterward, and then officially moved back to Israel, making aliyah just 30 days before October 7. Her story is beautiful, soulful and authentic. It highlights the importance of listening to our inner voice, and it encourages people to embrace their light and potential. Don't be afraid of succeeding!

Anat shares how she felt a return to self in Israel. Throughout our conversation, you can tangibly feel her deep, soulful connection to Israel and to Torah. As she navigated the ups and downs of life, Anat progressed on her Jewish journey. Instead of asking, 'Why?' when things happened, The Challah Mom learned to ask, 'What am I supposed to learn from this?' It's such a powerful shift in perspective. It's not so much that we need to know why something is happening, but more importantly, we need to know the hidden message inside of what is happening, and how we can grow from it.
This is a very powerful message!

The Challah Mom also shares her story about how she began covering her hair and why she wears her beautiful scarves.
