“Chai is amazing — it should be right alongside a good cup of coffee, espresso, or cappuccino. This business helped me reconcile my American upbringing and my Indian heritage — that push and pull, that beautiful combination of everything.”Ayan Sanyal is co-founder of Kolkata Chai Company, a vibrant café and online brand redefining what masala chai means to America. Founded in 2018 by two brothers, Kolkata Chai Co has a simple mission: to bring the authenticity, respect and tradition behind a cup of masala chai to NYC and beyond. What quickly became clear to Ayan was that his work went beyond tea brewing. It was about creating a space - and product - to understand and celebrate culture, comfort, and connection.The Kolkata Chai story caught the attention of many, including comedian Hasan Minhaj, a passionate investor and advocate. Before founding Kolkata Chai, Ayan established a strong career in marketing and advertising — as Managing Director at Green Room Creative, driving growth strategies for startups and mid-stage companies, and held key digital roles at 2U, Havas Media, Hill Holliday and Connelly Partners. Bridging a life of rock music, marketing, and brewing - Ayan's journey is informed from travels between Amherst, Kolkata, Brooklyn, and everything in between. You'll enjoy this candid conversation about family, culture, and entrepreneurship, hopefully with a good cup of chai.This episode is from Modern Minorities, Raman's other podcast - where we share minority conversations for all of our majority years — which we hope will inspire new perspectives and learnings.
Chai Can't Even usually focuses on young adults and why they stay in the church, but this time, host Blake Smith is sitting down with Tore Nilsen, whose grandfather was one of the first converts in Norway, and who is himself in his 80s. As a matter of fact, he was a young adult when his grandfather thought he was old enough to be baptized. Since then, he's spent his years serving in various leadership roles in the church while the church changed… in a good way … around him. Listen in and be inspired by one who has stayed and still has great hope!

Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, I have Dr. Feigie Russ on the show.Dr. Feigie is a licensed psychologist specializing in anxiety and OCD. With over 20 years of clinical experience, she blends her psychological expertise with a deep love for Hashem, to help individuals navigate their inner struggles. This week, she is releasing a brand new book called Letting Go: Overcoming Anxiety Through Emunah and Bitachon.When I learned about this book I was intrigued, but when I got to look through an early copy, I was blown away. At the beginning, I was skeptical — how would this book be different than others out there on emunah, bitachon and anxiety? Dr. Feigie Russ totally turns the whole concept on its head by bringing ego into the mix. It's a unique perspective that I hadn't heard before, one that really clicked for me and is also super comprehensive — the book is more than 400 pages so she really tries to address every aspect around the topic. In this episode, I speak to Dr. Feigie about:-What prompted her to write this book-Her own relationship with love for Hashem and building her emunah and bitachon-How she dealt with a really painful experience and came out the other side stronger-A refreshing perspective on navigating anxiety and really overcoming it from a place of understanding-How to handle uncertainty-How ego gets in the way when it comes to personal growth AND the appropriate place for ego in living a healthy, balanced life that serves Hashem in the way you want to-How the most difficult relationships in our lives can both teach us the most about self-love and actually get us to that place-How to know when giving is coming from a real place or a people-pleasing place and further, how to overcome a people-pleasing nature -The conversation to have with yourself about knowing how you're genuinely feeling about giving and doing more…and so much more!To get in touch with Dr. Feigie, you can email her at drfeigieruss@aol.com.

“Chai is amazing — it should be right alongside a good cup of coffee, espresso, or cappuccino. This business helped me reconcile my American upbringing and my Indian heritage — that push and pull, that beautiful combination of everything.” Ayan Sanyal is Co-founder of Kolkata Chai Company, which if you're in NY, you should stop by sometime soon (or order some online) — it's something special. I've been going for a couple of years, and more than a few others do to, including frieMMd of the pod Rajiv, and his bud Hasan Minhaj, who's become a big investor and advocate. Chai is something special — and good, REAL chai is something transcendent (just don't call it chai tea). Good chai takes time. It takes people. And it creates friendship. Ayan and his brother founded Kolkata Chai Co. in 2018 to bring authentic masala chai to New York City. Growing up to Bengali parents in Amherst, MA, the brothers navigated tea times, rock bands, and trips back to India (street food FTW) - finding different inspirations along the way. The two built a career and background in digital advertising and media, but quickly challenged themselves to take a side passion - brewing chai at home - to farmers markets and beyond — redefining how chai and culture can be experienced in the city, and further into America. Hearing Ayan's journey, from Amherst, MA to Kolkata and back again — and all the comic books and rock music in between - you'll be inspired to do more, and have a great cup along the way.

You'll learn why different Indian regions brew chai in unique ways, and how spices like cardamom and saffron offer profound medicinal benefits.This is more than a conversation about tea, it's a journey through heritage, healing, and the unseen wisdom in everyday rituals. Whether you're a lifelong chai lover or simply curious about the deeper stories steeped in your cup, this episode will enrich your connection to this timeless tradition.IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:☕️ How British marketing and the opium trade shaped Indian chai culture☕️ Family chai rituals and spice secrets passed down through generations☕️ The Ayurvedic approach to chai☕️ Medicinal benefits of chai spices like cardamom, ginger, clove, and saffron☕️ Regional chai variations across India and the logic behind them (yes, even salty Kashmiri chai)☕️ How to make chai a deeper, more mindful ritual in your dayABOUT OUR GUEST: Mira ManekMira Manek is an author, wellness coach and expert, and has her own chai brand.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, I have Elisheva Liss, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist on the show. Elisheva works with individuals and couples to help improve their quality of life and relationships — most commonly treating depression, anxiety, relationship problems and anything dealing with intimacy. She has a collaborative approach, which means she looks at her work as a partnership with each client.In this episode, we basically have a mini (or honestly, extended) therapy session about a lot of common issues women may be dealing with in the religious community, outside of it and in the unique time we're living in.As frum Jewish women, we live a beautiful life with holy values. We plan and often host Shabbat meals every week, opening our homes to those who need it. We bake challah, daven, say Tehillim, try to do chesed when we can, often work outside of the home, raise children, try to be a giving and loving wife, find time to learn and grow as people, find time for our own wellbeing and self-care with exercise, preparing healthy meals, maybe even our own therapy, we prepare simchas for our families, make time for friends to nourish ourselves and focus on what's going on in their lives, and so much more — the list goes on.Even just crafting this list — which I'm sure is still missing a lot — shows me just how much we may have on our plates at any given time. So especially when you lean more to the overachieving, perfectionist side of the mental health spectrum, it can often feel like you're not measuring up. We are taught that Hashem gives us time to partner with Hashem in this world, and the worst feeling is to feel like we're not utilizing that potential. How do we know when it's enough? How do we feel okay with just not being able to do it all?So I brought on Elisheva Liss to help me work through this concept. She is a beautiful, well-spoken therapist who actually has her own book called “Find Your Horizon of Healthy Thinking: Hack Your Thoughts and Improve Your Mood” which really was a perfect match for this topic. In our conversation, we speak about the pressures frum women face today, how to feel more comfortable with where we're at in this exact moment and how to use our brains to develop a healthier way of thinking and honestly, enjoy the lives that we're leading.Here, the books she shares in the episode:168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think by Laura VanderkamThe Rhythm of Life: Living Every Day with Passion and Purpose by Matthew KellySlowing Down to the Speed of Life — by Richard Carlson and Joseph BaileyBittersweet by Susan CainFollow Elisheva on Instagram here.Join her weekly newsletter here.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, we have the amazing Rachel Rosenberg on the podcast. Rachel is a certified mindset, health, and behavior change coach who helps women break free from emotional eating, binge cycles, and the exhausting all-or-nothing mindset. Blending neuroscience, CBT tools, and over 12 years of experience, she guides her clients to build a healthy relationship with food — and with themselves. Her work isn't about more control. It's about freedom. It's about peace. It's about learning to trust your body again.This was a topic I was excited to explore more deeply — while it's focused on creating a healthy lifestyle, there is so much more around that that we delve into when it comes to building the life you want to be living and the habits that support it. We speak about letting go of perfectionism on that journey, how to navigate what a healthy lifestyle actually looks like for you and then the emotions that may come up along the way when getting there.As women, our relationship with food can be layered and it's one that comes up multiple times a day. Rachel works with women to get to a much freer place when it comes to choosing what to eat every day and just how to approach this aspect of our lives with a lot more calm.These days, weight loss drugs are a hot topic as well and it feels that conversations around weight loss really run the gamut — first, we're focusing more on body acceptance and not wanting to change to focusing on everyone doing weight loss drugs and how we feel about that to maybe feeling shame about wanting to lose weight and speaking openly about that to also wanting to love ourselves the way we are! — there can be feelings across the whole spectrum at different times in our lives and sometimes all at the same time. In this conversation, we speak about a lot of that. How you can feel confident and okay with wanting to lose weight if that's your goal AND also work on loving yourself as you are.Rachel has a new group opening up in July so reach out now! You can follow her on Instagram at @coach_rachel_rosenberg or connect via email at rachelr@mindbodyspirit.health.
Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
The day immediately following Pesach, Shavuot or Sukkot is referred to as "Isru Chag" and is observed as a quasi-festival. Some people make a point of wearing their Shabbat clothing and conducting a special festive meal on Isru Chag. Rabbi Chayim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868), in his work Mo'ed Le'kol Chai (8:43), writes that Isru Chag Shavuot is a particularly significant day, more so than Isru Chag Pesach and Sukkot, and must therefore be observed with special festivity. He goes so far as to assert that Isru Chag Shavuot is of such importance that in principle it should warrant "Issur Melacha" – a prohibition against work similar to Shabbat and Yom Tov. In practice, of course, Halacha permits Melacha on Isru Chag Shavuot, but it nevertheless should be observed as a festive day, even more so than Isru Chag of the other festivals. There is a debate among the authorities as to when we resume the recitation of Tachanun during Sivan. We of course omit Tachanun on the first of Sivan, in honor of Rosh Chodesh, as well as on the second day of Sivan, which is when God declared that we will become "a kingdom of Kohanim and a sacred nation" (Shemot 19:6). The next three days – the third, fourth and fifth of Sivan – are known as the "Yemei Hagbala," the days of preparation for the giving of the Torah, a festive period in which we omit Tachanun. We do not recite Tachanun on Shavuot – the sixth and seventh of Sivan – or on Isru Chag Shavuot, the eighth of Sivan. During the times of the Mikdash, those who were unable to bring their sacrifices on the day of Shavuot itself – which in Israel is celebrated only on the sixth of Sivan - were allowed to do so during the six days following Shavuot, through the twelfth of Sivan. In commemoration, we omit Tachanun during this period, as well. According to some authorities, however, since in the Diaspora Shavuot is observed on both the sixth and seventh of Sivan, we begin the six-day period on the eighth of Sivan, rather than the seventh, and thus Tachanun is omitted on the thirteenth, as well. For the Syrian Jewish community, this debate bears no practice relevance, as Syrian Jews in any event observe the thirteenth of Sivan as a quasi-festival to celebrate the "Musan" miracle when the Jews of Halab were saved from a planned pogrom. Syrian communities therefore omit Tachanun on the thirteenth of Sivan regardless of the aforementioned debate. Many other communities, however, have the practice to resume the recitation of Tachanun on the thirteenth of Sivan. Later in this chapter in Mo'ed Le'kol Chai (Halacha 48), Rav Chayim Palachi writes that on the fifteenth of Sivan, it is proper for the Chazan to read aloud after the morning service Yaakov's blessing to Yehuda (Bereishit 49:8-12) and Parashat Ve'zot Ha'beracha. Reading these sections on this day, he writes, has the capacity to hasten the arrival of the final redemption. Summary: Isru Chag Shavuot (the day following Shavuot) must be observed as a festive day, even more so that the day following other festivals. Tachanun is omitted from Rosh Chodesh Sivan through the twelfth or thirteenth of Sivan, depending on communal custom. It is proper on the fifteenth of Sivan for the Chazan to read after the morning prayer Yaakov's blessing to Yehuda and Parashat Ve'zot Ha'beracha.
In this inspiring episode, we sit down with sisters Jessica and Joanna Finny, founders of Chechi's Chai, as they share the story behind their booming chai business that's doing more than just serving tea. It's a movement reclaiming cultural identity, deepening spiritual roots, and bridging community through storytelling and hospitality.The Finny sisters open up about their personal journeys navigating cultural duality as South Asian Christians growing up in Tennessee. From embracing the beauty of their heritage to redefining the meaning of mentorship through the lens of discipleship, this conversation is a masterclass on what it means to lead with authenticity.

Gary and Shannon dive into their weekend rituals—Gary's includes a chamomile Chai with a splash of Earl Grey matcha—and then take a nostalgic (and hilarious) detour into the world of celebrity crushes.From high school cheerleaders to Hollywood heartthrobs, they reflect on their own past obsessions—Josh Hartnett for Shannon, and a head-scratching Shelley Hack pick from Gary (Google her, we'll wait). They roast outdated “hot people” lists, get real about what actually makes someone attractive, and Gary drops a painfully awkward story about telling his wife he loved her.Love the show?

Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today I am so excited to have Rebbetzin, Author and Speaker, Sara Yoheved Rigler, on the podcast. In this episode, we are talking all about her incredible book, Holy Woman, the woman who inspired it — Rebbetzin Chaya Sara Kramer, and some Shavuot lessons we can all take to enter the holiday in the best mindset we can.Rebbetzin Rigler has become someone I've really learned a lot from in my own Jewish journey. I am a member of her weekly marriage webinar run through Jewish Workshops, where she helps women around the world work on themselves and improve their marriages; and I'm also someone who has really benefitted from her books. Even though Holy Woman is technically a biography, it reads like a novel and you become riveted from early on. Plus, Rebbetzin Rigler writes it with takeaways along the way so you can think about your own struggles and choices in life and become more prepared to tackle them.In the episode, we speak about:-Chaya Sara Kramer's life — the prophetic nature she was born with and how she nurtured that -The immense challenges she encountered along the way-How Rebbetzin Rigler met Rebbetzin Kramer and the relationship they developed following-What defines being in a good place versus a bad place in life — this was really life-changing-What we can learn from Rebbetzin Kramer about passing our own tests in life-How Rebbetzin Kramer lived every day with true simcha and what we can all learn from that-Creating more of a Oneness between us and Hashem-What it's like to live with bitachon versus just living with emunah-What Judaism really says about guilt-The main lesson Rebbetzin Rigler applies to her life daily that she learned from Rebbetzin Kramer…and SO MUCH MORE.The reason we are doing this episode now is because it is the 20th yahtzeit of Rebbetzin Kramer and because she didn't have any biological children — something you'll learn more about — she was always concerned no one would light a candle for her. So the goal with this is that all those listening will learn more about her and light a candle for her on her upcoming yahrzeit — gimmel Sivan, which starts on the night of 29th of May and goes into the following day, May 30. The full name for prayer is Chaya Sara bas Mendel Yosef.More about Sara Yoheved Rigler:Sara Yoheved Rigler is the author of seven books on Jewish spirituality: Holy Woman; Lights from Jerusalem; Battle Plans: How to Fight the Yetzer Hara (with Rebbetzin Tziporah Heller); G-d Winked: Tales and Lessons from My Spiritual Adventures; Heavenprints; and Emunah with Love and Chicken Soup: The Story of Rebbetzin Henny Machlis, the Brooklyn-born Girl who became a Jerusalem Legend. Her newest book, I've Been Here Before: When Souls of the Holocaust Return, is the product of 8 years of research into reincarnated souls from the Holocaust. She gives a weekly Marriage Webinar for Jewish women on a spiritual approach to marriage, with hundreds of members throughout the world. She lives in Jerusalem. Her website is: sararigler.com. Her YouTube channel is "From Within the Walls of Jerusalem", where she relates stories, presents gems of Jewish wisdom, and teaches practical life tools.

Enough of this mundane, everyday life," Arun said.Hi: उसकी बात सुनकर मीरा ने चाय का घूंट लिया और बोली, "अरुण, तुम जानते हो कि बजट हमारा सबसे बड़ा मुद्दा है।"En: Hearing this, Meera took a sip of tea and replied, "Arun, you know the budget is our biggest issue."Hi: कबीर हमेशा की तरह मुस्कुराते हुए बोला, "यार, बजट-वजट को छोड़ा। मज़ा लो, पल का आनंद उठाओ।" अरुण ने मुस्कान के साथ सहमति दिखाई।En: Kabir, as always, said with a smile, "Forget about the budget. Enjoy, savor the moment." Arun agreed with a smile.Hi: मगर फिर चिंता का पहाड़ खड़ा हो गया।En: But then a mountain of worries arose.Hi: दोस्तों के वक्त एक-दूसरे से मेल नहीं खा रहे थे।En: The schedules of the friends didn't match.Hi: मीरा ने कहा, "देखो अरुण, यात्रा की सुरक्षा भी एक बड़ा मुद्दा है।"En: Meera said, "Look, Arun, travel safety is also a major issue."Hi: यह सुनकर अरुण थोड़ी देर के लिए चुप हो गया। फिर उसने गंभीर होकर कहा, "मीरा, जीवन में रोमांच की ज़रूरत होती है, जब तक हम सुरक्षा का ख्याल रखें।"En: Hearing this, Arun stayed silent for a while, then seriously said, "Meera, life needs adventure, as long as we keep safety in mind."Hi: इस बीच, कबीर ने आदत के मुताबिक एक मजाक कर माहौल हल्का किया।En: Meanwhile, Kabir, as was his habit, cracked a joke to lighten the mood.Hi: अरुण ने धीरे-धीरे सबके सामने एक योजना बनाई।En: Arun gradually laid out a plan in front of everyone.Hi: "देखो, हम महंगे होटल नहीं लेंगे, बस में ही सफर कर लेंगे। आपको याद है ना, असली अनुभव तो सफर का होता है," उसने कहा।En: "Look, we won't book expensive hotels; we'll travel by bus. You remember, right, the real experience is in the journey itself," he said.Hi: मीरा ने एक लंबी सांस ली, फिर मुस्कुरा कर कहा, "ठीक है, अरुण, मुझे तुम्हारी योजना पसंद आई। हम उसके हिसाब से चलते हैं।"En: Meera took a deep breath, then smiled and said, "Alright, Arun, I like your plan. Let's go with it."Hi: कबीर ने चुटकी लेते हुए कहा, "तो बस, टिकट बुक करो।"En: Kabir quipped, "So just book the tickets."Hi: अंत में, वे तीनों चाय की चुस्की लेते हुए योजना तैयार कर चुके थे।En: In the end, as they sipped their tea, they had crafted their plan.Hi: अरुण ने महसूस किया कि दोस्तों के हित को पहले रखते हुए उन्होंने सभी का साथ पाया।En: Arun realized that by prioritizing his friends' interests, he had found everyone's support.Hi: उनकी हंसी और उत्साह से भरी बातचीत में, तीनों ने तय किया कि ये यात्रा हमेशा यादगार रहेगी।En: In their laughter and enthusiastic conversation, the three decided that this trip would always be memorable.Hi: जैसे वे चाय की दुकान से बाहर निकले, उनका दिल रोमांचित और उम्मीदों से भरा था, मानो मनाली की ठंडी हवाएं बस उन्हें बुला रही हों।En: As they stepped out of the tea shop, their hearts were filled with excitement and hope, as if Manali's cold winds were calling out to them.

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today I have Gila Levitt on the show. Gila is a Torah Marriage and Intimacy Specialist with over 20 years of experience empowering Jewish women to create emotionally connected, deeply fulfilling marriages. As the creator of Heart of Marriage: Soul Satisfying Oneness, she blends timeless Torah values with the latest research in emotional intelligence, brain science, and relational well-being.Gila's work is grounded, warm, and deeply respectful on each woman's inner world. She offers not just guidance—but clarity, chizuk, and a path forward for the woman who wants to become her best, most authentic self in her marriage. Through mindset shifts, emotional insight, and practical tools, she helps women align with who they truly want to be—in marriage and in life. This episode was one I wasn't sure I wanted to do to be totally honest. It covers a really vulnerable topic and one that isn't often spoken about publicly. That being said, it's an important one, one that affects every marriage and every woman in some way so when Gila reached out, I really thought it through and it felt like a good opportunity to delve into things a little more.Because intimacy is such a private thing, it can be one women don't really feel comfortable getting help on or seeking support if they need it and I'm hoping this episode will help break a little bit of that stigma.In the episode we cover a lot — from what intimacy actually looks like in a Torah marriage — the mindset around it and the body-soul relationship to practical ways to achieve more connection to it if it's something that's hard for you. We speak about the differences between men and women in general and in this space that could be coming up and realistic expectations to have around its impact on your marriage.For more from Gila, visit heartofmarriage.org or reach out to Gila at info@heartofmarriage.org.For more classes from Gila on Kol Halashon, click here.--If there is someone you want to see on The Chai on Life Podcast, email me at alex@chaionlifemag.com or send me a DM @chaionlifemag.

Daily Halacha Podcast - Daily Halacha By Rabbi Eli J. Mansour
**Today's Halacha is dedicated f or the refuah and haslacha of Ronnie, Sharon, Eli and all the children of CARE** It is customary each night during the Omer period for the Chazan to recite the Beracha and count the Omer aloud, before the congregation recites the Beracha and counts. This practice developed due to the concern that people may mistakenly count the wrong number, in which case they would not fulfill the Mitzva and would recite a Beracha Le'vatala ("wasted" Beracha). As it was assumed that Chazanim would know the correct number for the counting, the custom developed that the Chazan would first count aloud before the congregation. This practice is mentioned already by the Rashba (Rabbi Shlomo Ben Aderet, Spain, 1235-1310), in one of his responsa (126), and is discussed as well by Rabbi Chayim Palachi (Turkey, 1788-1868) in his work Mo'ed Le'kol Chai (5:19). Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi (the "Ba'al Ha'tanya," Russia, 1745-1813), in his code of Halacha (Shulchan Aruch Ha'Rav, 489:12; listen to audio for precise citation), notes an interesting Halachic dilemma that results from this custom. There is a debate among the authorities as to whether a person fulfills a Mitzva by performing the given action without intending to satisfy his Mitzva obligation ("Mitzvot Tzerichot Kavana" or "Mitzvot Einan Tzerichot Kavana"). According to one view, a person fulfills his obligation regardless of whether or not he has the Mitzva in mind while performing the given act. If so, Rabbi Shneur Zalman notes, once the Chazan publicly counts the Omer, everybody who hears his counting has fulfilled their obligation of Sefirat Ha'omer. Even though they did not intend to fulfill their obligation by listening to the Chazan's counting, and the Chazan did not have in mind for his counting to fulfill their obligation, they nevertheless fulfill the Mitzva by hearing his counting. Rabbi Sheur Zalman adds that with regard to Mitzvot De'Rabbanan (obligations ordained by the Rabbis, as opposed to Torah law), all authorities agree that intention is not indispensable for the fulfillment of the Mitzva. Therefore, since we generally follow the view that Sefirat Ha'omer nowadays is required on the level of Rabbinic obligation, according to all opinions one fulfills his obligation to count by hearing the Chazan's counting. Seemingly, then, it should be forbidden to count with a Beracha after one hears the Chazan count the Omer. Since one fulfills his obligation by listening to the Chazan, even if he did not intend to fulfill his obligation in this manner, he may no longer count with a Beracha. Chacham Ovadia Yosef addresses this issue in his work Chazon Ovadia (Laws of Yom Tov, p. 228). He writes that in order to avoid this dilemma, one should verbally declare each year towards the beginning of the Sefira period that throughout the period he does not intend to fulfill his obligation by listening to somebody else's counting. By making such a declaration, one establishes that he intends on fulfilling his obligation only by personally counting the Omer, and he may thus count with a Beracha even after listening to the Chazan's counting. Summary: It is customary for the Chazan to count the Omer aloud with the Beracha before the congregation counts. One should verbally declare at the beginning of the Sefira period that throughout the Omer he intends to fulfill his obligation to count only through his personal counting, and not by listening to the Chazan or other person's counting.
