Rabbi YY Jacobson and Dr. Shloime Zimmerman engage in a profound discussion about the intersection of mental health, spirituality, and cultural identity. They address the rise in antisemitism post-October 7th, examining the external blaming of Jews and the internalization of associated shame and trauma. The conversation spans diverse topics, including AI's role in reminding humanity of intrinsic values, parental vulnerability, emotional honesty, and the struggle for authenticity in today's world. This dialogue integrates psychology and Torah insights, offering a pathway to healing through confronting rather than avoiding difficult truths.
