In this episode of Toward a Meaningful Life Podcast, hosts David Cohen and Levi Goldstein explore powerful insights from a Rabbi Simon Jacobson class examining how radically different narratives can exist around the same reality — and what Torah perspective contributes to understanding identity, history, and purpose.

Drawing from timeless Jewish wisdom, they unpack the contrast between material and spiritual frameworks for interpreting events and discuss how perspective shapes not only global discourse but also personal growth, resilience, and meaning in everyday life.

Rabbi Simon Jacobson is a renowned educator and founder of The Meaningful Life Center, known for presenting Torah teachings as a practical blueprint for navigating the human experience and bridging the secular and spiritual worlds.
