Ki Tavo and Can you be Codependent with God?

Terumah and Sharing Your Emotions

We are back with an exciting new episode about the mishkan, or tabernacle that the Jews were instructed to prepare so they could have a place to dwell with Hashem. A few questions… Do you show vulnerability? Is it hard for you? Do you think you’re doing people a favor by trying to make their lives “easier” even when it affects you negatively? While I may sound mean or harsh towards my father, it is not your place to judge. We all have soul contacts here on this planet and some of them might be confusing to you. That’s ok! If you suspect you’re an emotionally immature parent, please get yourself some help. Contact me for specific ideas. You think you’re only hurting yourself but you’re hurting everyone around you and it’s not OK.

Vayechi and Is This the End? Also, Good Luck in 2026

This episode sees the continuation of Joseph being scapegoated by his family. A story as old as time itself. But Joseph takes the high road, as many scapegoats do and shows mercy on his lying siblings. He would still do anything for them because that's the mensch he is. Bless his heart. This episode had some technical difficulties and I'm honestly not sure if it will continue. Not feeling the love after nearly 4 years. If you listened, thanks! Happy 2026. I hope it's a good one for you.

We are back! Miketz and the Tragedy in Bondi

Hello! Apologies for the unexplained absence. What began as internet difficulties in Cyprus turned into a needed break. We even had some father daughter therapy sessions. But our rabbi therapist told us there was nothing he could do...we were screwed. OK, that's not really what happened, but we fired him, and decided to work out our issues here, with all of you. My beloved purple car was destroyed by a drunk driver. My Sydney Jewish community is mourning the horrific murder of 15 innocent lives cut short. Rob Reiner and his wife killed by their own son. More violence. Tragedy. It goes on and on... BUT, it's chanukah and I have a new nephew, born TODAY to my brother, who is a bipolar narcissist. What a life! It's also Miketz, where we talk about Joseph being a chosen one. I, Briyah Ariel Paley, am a chosen one. Here we go...enjoy and shabbat shalom and happy Chanukah, wherever we find you.

Nitzavim and Shana Tovah U'Metukah!

It's a new year and also the lunar eclipse and energy is MOVING! This episode has some tense moments and you may feel uncomfortable at times. We certainly did. But that's OK. Growth requires change and change is not easy or comfortable. Still, we hope you get something out of this episode. Shana Tovah to you, dear listener!

We discuss blessings and curses in our lives and in this parsha. We didn't mention the fruit offerings, but Briyah's favorite fruit is passion fruit. Life is full of passion at the moment! How are you landing during this sacred time on earth?
