Deep Meaningful Conversations

Finding Meaning in Mourning with Sarah Rivkah Kohn


Listen Later

We’ve entered the Three Weeks, and the Jewish calendar instructs us to have mourning on our mind. Yet it can be challenging to embrace the meaning of mourning smack in the middle of summer barbeques and road trips. We knew that Sarah Rivkah Kohn, founder of Links Family, would help us find the meaning in mourning. Links Family is an organization that provides support to children and teens who have lost a parent. Through her own personal loss, and her work with Links, Sarah Rivkah has learned so much about the process and significance of mourning and how it can apply to all of us, even if we haven’t lost a loved one. 

On this DMC we discuss:

  • How and why Sarah Rivkah founded Links Family

  • What Sarah Rivkah has learned about mourning

  • The various forms of loss  in the human experience

  • How Sarah Rivkah’s experience informs her understanding of the loss of the Beis Hamikdash

  • How we can make Tisha Baav more meaningful in our lives

  • We love hearing from our listeners. You can find Deep Meaningful Conversations on Facebook and Instagram, join our WhatsApp group https://chat.whatsapp.com/IjG33sXCYgFGJSdncnN4nX, and you can always email us at [email protected].
