This week I am joined by Rabbi, Author and Psychotherapist, Tirzah Firestone who comes to the podcast to discuss her book "Wounds to Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Jewish Trauma." She shares her insights from her years of research on transforming trauma and building resilience beyond our traumatic experiences whether lived or generational. We also discuss her significant work with Women and Kabbalah.

  Rabbi Tirzah Firestone, PhD is is an author, Jungian psychotherapist, and founding Rabbi of Congregation Nevei Kodesh in Boulder, Colorado. Raised in an Orthodox home in St. Louis, Missouri, Tirzah’s spiritual curiosity called her to search beyond the confines of her family’s strict Jewish upbringing. Tirzah left home to embark upon a life-changing spiritual odyssey, chronicled in "With Roots In Heaven: One Woman’s Passionate Journey into the Heart of Her Faith" Her cutting edge research on the impact and healing of collective trauma draws on the fields of neuroscience, psychology, Jewish literature and mythopoesis and can be studied in her book "Wounds to Wisdom: Healing Intergenerational Jewish Trauma."
