Episode Summary

In this episode of Judaism With Altitude, Rabbi Danny Wolfe shares why he made the decision to ditch his smartphone and switch to a simple “dumb phone.” After years of constant notifications, endless scrolling, and always “being available,” he realized the device in his pocket was stealing his presence, his patience, and his peace of mind.

Rabbi Danny walks through the moment he knew he needed a digital detox, the fears he had about going low-tech, and the unexpected benefits that came from switching to a flip phone — including better focus, calmer mornings, and deeper relationships with real people in real life.

Episode 28: Becoming an Enlightened Jewish Master: A Conversation with Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen on Life, Relationships and Dating

Welcome back to Judaism with Altitude. In this episode, we sit down with Rabbi Dov Ber Cohen — a world-renowned educator, author, and speaker known for his teachings on mindfulness, emotional health, and spiritual growth through authentic Torah wisdom.

Together, we explore how to navigate the pressures of modern life with clarity, compassion, and inner strength. Rabbi Cohen shares practical guidance for both singles and marrieds on building themselves into the best version of who they can become — with joy, balance, and a deep relationship with Hashem.

Rabbi Cohen introduces a powerful practice: hitboninut — taking a few minutes each day to reflect, with compassion, on the choices we’re making.

Questions to ask:

• Are my actions leading me toward the life I truly want?

• Is this habit giving me lasting happiness or just a momentary hit?

• Does this choice align with the person I want to become?

This reflection isn’t about guilt or pressure — it’s lovingly checking in with your soul.

The conversation explores modern dating challenges, the realities of Jewish matchmaking, the importance of vulnerability, and the spiritual practices that help daters show up as their most authentic selves. Barbara also speaks about her family heritage, possible crypto-Jewish roots, her love of Shabbat and Torah learning, and how Jewish values shape her work both professionally and personally.

This episode is full of warmth, honesty, and practical wisdom — whether you’re dating, matchmaking, or just trying to build deeper human connections.
