Recognizing our own worth is sometimes not an easy feat. We’ve learned from such a young age to make light of our talents rather than harness and celebrate them and building our own confidence takes time and immense patience to grasp. 

Joining me on the show today is Rabbi Iggy, a self-proclaimed ‘Spiritual Sherpa’, Talmud Teacher and Founder of the ‘T'Shuvah Centre.’ Having gone through struggles of his own relating to his identity, sexuality, sense of purpose, and spiritual wellbeing, Rabbi Iggy has used these profound hardships to help clients of his own in discovering their own life paths. 

Rabbi Iggy shares how his work has impacted the people he’s met along his journey, including those dealing with issues surrounding substance abuse and low self-esteem. He also gives insight into exactly how we can tap into our inner selves and use our connected experiences to find true fulfillment.
