  • Important podcast for our times

    R’ Wolff is an authentic voice of searching for a meaningful life in an increasingly self absorbed world. His approach to finding your own potential turns the “self-help” genre on its head. He shows us that the truest form of self actualization is using our talents to serve a greater cause and help others. We can only hope to live up to those ideals.

Rav Dovid Lichtenstein's Definition of Success
Q: How do you suggest that we as Ben Torah approach these different topics?

Rav Dovid Lichtenstein's Definition of Success
Q: What are the lessons that you take or would advise others who want to feel fulfillment in their learning based off of your experience building up headlines?
If you're learning something that you don't enjoy, you're not going to be able to stick with it.

Our job should serve as a means to fulfill our mission as Jews, not simply be seen as a vocation or calling.
