Rona Lalezary’s The Divine Download Podcast

Is manifestation actually supported by Torah? In this episode of The Divine Download, Rona explores Parshat Eikev and the powerful teaching: “Gd is the One who gives you the power to create abundance.”

This isn’t about controlling the universe or simply thinking your desires into existence. It’s about becoming a vessel for the vision Gd places within you- through faith, gratitude, aligned action, and surrender.

Discover the Torah’s formula for manifestation: listen, envision, speak, move, and release- and learn how to recognize when a dream may actually be a divine download asking to come into the world through you.

What if your deepest vision isn’t random? What if it’s an invitation?

What if the problem was never your body… but the identity you’ve been living in?

In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Regina Oswald, wellness expert and author of Liberation from the Diet Prison, to explore what it truly means to break free from diet culture and come home to yourself.

We go beyond food and into something deeper, the emotional, psychological, and spiritual patterns that keep so many women stuck in cycles of control, self-judgment, and disconnection.

Regina shares her personal journey from a Soviet childhood to the pressures of the fashion world, and the moment that shifted everything, leading her to help others reclaim their bodies, their identity, and their freedom.

Together, we unpack:
• Why willpower isn’t the answer
• How to stop treating your body like a problem to fix
• The connection between body healing and spiritual alignment
• What it really means to return to who you were before the world told you who to be

This episode is your invitation to release who you’ve been told to be and step into who you truly are.

In this episode, I sit down with Moy Schwartzman and Gabriel Mondlak, the founders of Attesi Lodge, a village in the mountains outside of Mexico City, whose journey will challenge everything you think you know about success, happiness, and spirituality.

They had everything.

Careers in law. Financial success. Status. Opportunity.

And yet… they felt empty.

In this deeply honest conversation, Moy and Gabriel share how that realization led them to step away from the path they were told would make them happy—and instead build something entirely different.

What started as a search for meaning through nature and indigenous wisdom eventually brought them full circle… back to Torah, back to their roots, and back to a life of true connection.

Moy Schwartzman, co-founder of Attesi, is a lawyer by profession and a farmer by passion. He has spent over 20 years studying and applying permaculture principles and sustainable design, integrating environmental stewardship with a deep commitment to Torah and lifelong learning. His vision is centered on creating intentional spaces where people can truly connect—to themselves, to others, and to Gd.

Gabriel Mondlak is a Mexican entrepreneur and founder of Attesi. After building a successful career in law and business, he felt a deeper calling to reexamine his path and pursue a more meaningful life. That search led him to create Attesi—a living, evolving model that brings together families, education, regenerative agriculture, and hospitality into a cohesive, values-driven way of living. Today, he is fully dedicated to expanding this vision and exploring how modern life can be aligned with deeper purpose and responsibility.

Together, we explore:

• The hidden emptiness behind success and achievement
• Why so many people today feel disconnected despite “having it all”
• The moment they realized Judaism held what they were searching for
• How Attesi Lodge was built from nothing into a thriving, purpose-driven community
• A new model of living that integrates spirituality, family, and intention
• And what it actually means to create a life you don’t need to escape from

This conversation is not about leaving your life.

It’s about learning how to live it differently.

If you’ve ever felt like there has to be more…this episode is for you.

In this special live episode of Divine Download, Rona Lalezary sits down with Levi J. Shmotkin, author of Letters for Life, for an intimate conversation recorded in Beverly Hills.

Drawing from the teachings and letters of the Lubavitcher Rebbe, one of the most influential spiritual leaders of our time, this episode explores a powerful and deeply human approach to mental health, emotional resilience, and inner strength.

Together, they unpack how the Rebbe addressed real struggles people face today, including anxiety, hopelessness, shame, and the search for meaning. His perspective offers clarity and grounding not only for those rooted in faith, but for anyone navigating the complexities of modern life.

This conversation is a reminder that even in moments of uncertainty, there is wisdom available to guide us back to ourselves.

What do you do when you’ve prayed, you’ve done the work… and nothing is happening?

In this powerful Part 2 conversation, I sit down with Gedale Fenster to talk about one of the most difficult parts of faith, the waiting.

We explore what it really means to trust Gd when there’s nothing tangible to show for it, how to stay grounded when you feel stuck in what I call “Gd’s waiting room,” and why so many people lose faith right before their breakthrough.

I open up about a personal realization that shifted everything for me, that true abundance began to flow when I stopped chasing and started feeling genuine joy for where I already am.

We dive into:

✨ The balance between being happy with what you have and still wanting more✨ Why joy is a vessel for receiving blessings✨ The difference between surrender and passivity✨ When to take action and why action, nefesh, is what reveals miracles✨ What the Torah teaches us about impatience through Adam and Eve and the Golden Calf✨ How to hold onto faith when nothing seems to be happening✨ Why we are not meant to all look the same in our observance and how to respect each person’s journey✨ The deeper dynamic between men and women and restoring balance in relationships

This episode is for anyone who feels like they’re waiting, questioning, or trying to understand how to move forward without losing faith.

If you’ve ever wondered:

Am I supposed to act… or am I supposed to trust?

This conversation will give you the clarity and the tools to do both.

🎧 Listen now and take one step closer to living with more faith, joy, and alignment.

In this episode of The Divine Download, we’re opening up a conversation that so many women experience but far too few feel comfortable talking about. I’m joined by board-certified OB-GYN Dr. Karen Toubi to discuss the realities of hormonal changes during perimenopause and menopause. From brain fog and shifting hormones to changes in sexual health and intimacy, we unpack the symptoms many women are told to simply accept as part of aging. Dr. Toubi shares her expertise in menopause care, vulvovaginal health, and genito-pelvic pain, offering insight into why these changes happen and what women can do to support their bodies and reclaim their vitality. This conversation is about breaking the silence around women’s health and empowering women with the knowledge they need to advocate for themselves, feel heard, and live fully at every stage of life.

In this deeply human conversation, Rona sits down with Alon Lachman, a former IDF paratrooper who served from 2020 to 2023 and was redrafted on October 7. Alon shares what it means to witness history firsthand — and what comes after the noise fades.

Now on a personal healing journey, Alon has turned to photography as a way to process trauma, reconnect with himself, and find beauty in unexpected places. Together, they explore resilience, identity, creativity as medicine, and how art can become a bridge between pain and meaning.

This episode is an invitation to slow down, feel deeply, and witness healing in real time.

In this episode, I sit down with Sara Jensen, co founder of Hugh & Grace, to talk about turning personal pain into purpose. After a 14 year journey through unexplained infertility, Sara built the hormone supportive brand she couldn’t find, rooted in science, prevention, and education. We explore her why, the intention behind Hugh & Grace, and what it truly means to create something that serves women at every stage of life.

In this episode, I sit down with Melissa Ellin and Staci Koondel, the founders of Divorce Friends, whose bond was forged through divorce. What began as shared heartbreak became a powerful friendship and a path to healing, growth, and new beginnings. We talk about leaving lives that looked perfect from the outside and finding peace, purpose, and truth on the other side.

In this enlightening episode, Rona sits down with Ora Shorts to dive into the question: Is manifestation truly a Jewish practice? Together, they explore the spiritual foundations of manifestation through a Jewish lens, revealing how timeless Torah wisdom intersects with modern-day manifesting principles. Tune in for a heartfelt conversation that bridges the mystical and the practical, offering listeners a new perspective on bringing divine energy into their everyday lives.
