Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

(53) Welcoming the Convert: Rethinking Jewish Conversion Today
Q: What role do you think social media and online education should play in conversion education today?
They should complement in-person guidance by offering accessible, accurate information, personal stories, and a sense of belonging, while avoiding misrepresentation or sensationalism; the aim is to inform and support, not to pressure or mislead.
(53) Welcoming the Convert: Rethinking Jewish Conversion Today
Q: How does the community best support someone going through conversion, especially in light of challenges like family dynamics or living arrangements?
Welcoming, providing practical support like inviting to Shabbat meals, helping with Hebrew or prayers, and explaining halakhic requirements without pressure are crucial; community members should show ongoing hospitality and facilitate access to correct educational resources and mentors.
(49) Leading with Laughter: Rachel Creeger on Comedy, Courage, and Jewish Visibility
Q: How has being a woman in Orthodox Jewish leadership shaped your career and choices?
Being a woman adds complexity and scrutiny, but it also highlights the impact of visibility and leadership. I've leaned on community support and my own learning to navigate misogyny while continuing to perform and speak publicly.
(49) Leading with Laughter: Rachel Creeger on Comedy, Courage, and Jewish Visibility
Q: What moment convinced you that comedy was the path for you?
Two moments stood out: childhood family humor that sparked a love for jokes, and a pivotal conversation after which I decided to pursue it seriously, despite barriers and religious considerations.
(48) Strengthening Women Who Sustain Communities, with Aliza Bulow
Q: Can you describe the impact of the end-of-life care conference and the communities of practice you've built?
The end-of-life care conference demonstrated participatory learning and field-building, bringing together women across roles to discuss sensitive topics and create actionable initiatives. The communities of practice then scale that learning by connecting women globally, enabling knowledge sharing and collaborative leadership across continents.
