How to Talk about the Tough Stuff


Listen Later

In today’s episode, we dive into a tough—but crucial—topic: how to talk to our kids about the difficult things happening in the world. From rising antisemitism to unsettling headlines, our children are absorbing more than we realize—and they’re looking to us for guidance, safety, and perspective.

Join me as we explore:

  • 💬 Why silence doesn’t protect our kids—but thoughtful conversation can

  • 🧒 Age-appropriate ways to open up the conversation

  • 👂 Practical scripts for when you don’t know what to say

  • 🙏 How to help your child feel safe, empowered, and proud to be Jewish

You’ll walk away with:

  • Confidence to approach these conversations with clarity and calm

  • Tools to strengthen your child emotionally and spiritually

  • And a renewed understanding of the power of being a guiding voice in your child’s life

Whether your child is asking tough questions—or you’re wondering when and how to start the conversation—this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen now and let’s walk this journey together.
