  • Why Fitness Is a Spiritual Practice: Shuli Goldstein of Studio Soul
    Jun 22 2026

    What does fitness have to do with spirituality?

    In this conversation, I sit down with Shuli Goldstein, founder of Studio Soul, to explore the connection between physical movement, emotional well-being, personal growth, and spiritual life.

    We discuss why exercise can be more than a tool for weight loss or appearance, how movement affects our mindset and sense of self, the relationship between body and soul, and what it means to approach fitness as a spiritual practice.

    Together, we explore discipline, self-respect, presence, resilience, health, and the ways that caring for the body can deepen our connection to ourselves and the world around us.

    Whether you're passionate about fitness, interested in spirituality, or simply looking for a healthier relationship with your body, this conversation offers a thoughtful perspective on movement, meaning, and personal transformation.

    Topics discussed:
    • Fitness and spirituality
    • Mind-body connection
    • Emotional wellness
    • Personal growth
    • Healthy habits
    • Self-care and self-respect

  • Intrusive Thoughts in Uncertain Times: A Jewish Answer
    Jun 15 2026

    In times of war and uncertainty, how do we practice gratitude? In Israel right now, we’re all navigating fear, intrusive thoughts, and the question: where is faith when everything feels unstable? This episode explores a Torah based approach to gratitude that doesn’t require you to feel okay, it requires you to know what’s true. A teaching for anyone living through Iran tensions, conflict, or any moment when your mind won’t stop catastrophizing. Featuring Chassidic wisdom on da’at (knowledge), tikkun (elevation), and how to stay conscious when uncertainty is loudest.
