What to Do When Someone Interrupts You


Listen Later

Have you ever been interrupted mid-sentence — and felt frustrated or deflated?
In this powerful clip, Rabbi Leib Kelemen explains what a truly wise person does when interrupted, drawing from Pirkei Avos (Ethics of the Fathers 5:7) and the Pesach Seder itself.

Discover:

  • Why a wise person doesn’t interrupt others

  • How the Haggadah reveals the secret to true communication

  • The difference between dialogue and monologue — and why it changes everything

  • How to respond when someone clearly isn’t ready to hear you

Rabbi Kelemen’s answer goes beyond etiquette — it’s about understanding the spiritual vessel (keli) of the other person, timing, and the humility of true wisdom.

📘 Listen till the end to hear how this connects to genuine closeness and emotional connection in relationships.
