 Welcome to this very special episode of From the Inside Out with Rivkah & Eda! Usually, we invite guests to share their insights, but for the first time since the inception of our podcast, we turned the mic on ourselves and shared our stories. 

A few months back, the Montreal Torah Center flew us down for a unique event where we had the privilege of interviewing Rabbi Moshe New. (Be sure to listen to that inspiring episode here: https://youtu.be/KXqo5NqqVfw ) 

During that visit, we were also interviewed (for the very first time!) by Rabbi Getzy Markowitz (https://www.instagram.com/getzym/?hl=en), Director of the Family Store (https://www.instagram.com/tfsmtl/?hl=en) and Young Jewish Professionals of Montreal, and Amanda Bindman (https://ca.linkedin.com/in/amanda-bindman-b27555130)

In this candid conversation, we open up about our own journeys—sharing stories of growing up in homes of generosity, overcoming personal challenges, and embracing so many stages of transformation throughout our lives. 

We want to thank you-  our amazing listeners - for joining us on this journey. We hope our stories resonate with you and inspire you in some way. Please let us know your thoughts and share your own experiences in the comments below!

We are excited to share this with you and hope you enjoy.

With gratitude,

Rivkah & Eda

In this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah and Eda, we explore what truly makes marriage “great,” from the sacred concept of soulmates to practical skills for everyday harmony. Our guests—Rabbi Manis Friedman, Rabbi Shais Taub, and somatic healer Miriam Racquel Feldman—challenge the idea that marriage is about personal gain or mere happiness. Instead, they show how viewing marriage as a shared mission—anchored in spiritual purpose and mutual respect—can transform conflict into connection and routine coexistence into genuine intimacy. We discuss the difference between love and oneness, how to create a safe emotional space at home, and why authentic growth often emerges from life’s toughest moments. Whether you’re single, married, or somewhere in-between, this conversation offers uplifting insights and practical wisdom for building a grounded, purposeful, and deeply fulfilling marriage.

In this episode of From The Inside Out with Rivkah and Eda, we tackle the paradoxes and puzzles that we come up against in Torah and Judaism with Rabbi Dov Schochet. Right in time for Rosh Hashana, this episode will help you enter the new year with clarity, drive, and purpose. We cover questions such as: 

-What are the Torah’s guidelines on seeking and granting forgiveness?

-What is the Torah’s view on healing and finding joy?

- What does Teshuva mean practically for us today?

- What is the Torah's view on balancing materialism and spirituality, especially when asking for blessings on Rosh Hashanah?

- How should one navigate the political landscape as a Torah-observant Jew?

- Can the Torah laws adapt to modern developments?

- How do you reconcile the idea that "the world was created for me" with humility?

-What guidance does the Torah give on deciding between staying in yeshiva and entering the workforce?

- What is healthy love according to the Torah, and how does it differ from selfish or destructive love?

And many more!

We hope you enjoy this episode and wish you a sweet year full of revealed goodness and

miracles!

Even with the best intentions, it’s easy to forget or miss a day of giving charity. Imagine the opportunity to partner daily with the Lubavitcher Rebbe in giving Tzedaka.

71 years ago, the Rebbe launched Keren Hashana, a fund ensuring that no day goes by without giving charity. By donating an amount reflecting the 355 days of this year, Keren Hashana disburses charity twice daily—before Shachris and Mincha—guaranteeing your daily giving.

The amount doesn’t matter; the key is consistency- to give Tzedaka every year. Funds support those in need through Chabad’s global network, from single-parent households to educational subsidies and emergency assistance. Join thousands worldwide and be
