This podcast is powered by LSJS. Visit lsjs.ac.uk for our full Jewish learning programme & find something that suits you. Rabbanit Michelle Cohen Farber is the founder of Hadran, advancing Talmud study and Daf Yomi for women. Michelle studied Talmud at Bar Ilan University and at Midreshet Lindenbaum Scholars' Programme. She's taught gemara and halacha in Pelech Jerusalem, Midreshset Lindenbaum and Matan Hasharon. Together with her husband, she founded and leads Kehilat Netivot in Ra'anana where they live with their 5 children. We discuss how the anchor of Daf Yomi kept her going through the traumas we've been through as a people, why she focuses on women learning Talmud rather than Tanach, and how, while peers left studying for teaching, she continued to invest in her own learning until she judged the right time to move to teaching, and the difference that's made for her and for others.

In this special episode of The Remnant Underground, Michael Matt touches on Francis' effort to ban the Latin Mass while, for the moment, leaving the Ecclesia Dei communities alone. What's behind this, and could this be Francis' attempt to set up “juring” and “non-juring” priests, just like the Freemasons did during their French Revolution. In his introduction to the video (shot from the road in a very different setting), Michael Matt takes a quick look at the imminent Latin Mass ban, at l'Affaire Vigano, and at a bold statement made this week by Cardinal O'Malley, as Francis fatigue becomes a pandemic, EVEN in Camp Nouvs Ordo.   This Underground is a recorded interview of Michael Matt by Michael Forbes of Mary's Town Productions in Hollywood, CA.  What was the Vendee Uprising, and why does it matter to us today, as Francis prepares to cancel the Latin Mass?

Guest: Dr. Amy PeelerTo have new conversations about abortion, we need to step inside people's stories. Women specifically can sometimes wonder where they can find their place in the story of God's family. We're celebrating this season of Advent by exploring how the coming of Jesus to reconcile God and humanity begins with a pregnancy story. Join Angela and her guest, Dr. Amy Peeler, the Kenneth T. Wessner Chair of Biblical Studies at Wheaton College, a priest in the Episcopal Church (USA), and the author of Women and the Gender of God (Eerdmans, 2022). They unpack the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus, through the lens of her pregnancy experience. And they walk through the deeper truths this story illustrates about God's compassion and equal value for both the woman and the child. How can He hold His plan for the Son to become human and Mary's agency in that plan without contradiction? As we celebrate Christmas, we sit with this reality of God's intention for Mary's place in the salvation story. Links: Women and the Gender of God by Dr. Amy Peeler - https://www.eerdmans.com/9780802879097/ Amy references the painting: Mary consoles Eve by Grace Remington Referenced Prayer:(Book of Common Prayer, Rite II, Prayer B, p. 368) We give thanks to you, O God, for the goodness and lovewhich you have made known to us in creation; in the callingof Israel to be your people; in your Word spoken through theprophets; and above all in the Word made flesh, Jesus, yourSon. For in these last days you sent him to be incarnate fromthe Virgin Mary, to be the Savior and Redeemer of the world.In him, you have delivered us from evil, and made us worthyto stand before you. In him, you have brought us out of errorinto truth, out of sin into righteousness, out of death into life.

Over 100 million people are displaced worldwide. That's the equivalent of the 14th biggest country in the globe. The world seems to be in a refugee crisis and yet for some, like Social Impact Pioneer, Dale Buscher – there are practical pragmatic solutions, developed over decades of lived experience. Dale's professional journey reaches back to 1988. His extensive experience includes supporting refugees from Vietnam to Haiti, Bosniak refugees in Croatia, displaced Kurds in Northern Iraq, and many more. During our conversation Dale explains how situations and circumstances surrounding any one person who is forcibly displaced is complex, nuanced and dynamic. Navigating these challenges requires a deep understanding of the refugee experience itself but the experience of Dale and his colleagues means that there is support, guidance and time-tested help available. Enter the all-encompassing guide: "Building Livelihoods: A Field Manual for Practitioners in Humanitarian Settings." Dale's robust background, including advising the UN High Commissioner for Refugees and authoring the field handbook "Operational Protection in Camps and Settlements," ensures his insights are practical, steeped in lived experience, and transformative. And be ready to hear Dale share why the Refugee Self-Reliance Initiative - a joint effort by the Women's Refugee Commission – where Dale is currently Vice President of Programs and RefugePoint is a vital programme in helping promote a future where refugees regain financial independence and understand self-resilience. Whether you're a humanitarian practitioner, a supporter of refugee rights, whether you are displaced or a listener with a desire for deeper understanding, this podcast is your compass in the intricate landscape of refugee support and self-reliance. This podcast is more than a manual; it's a portal into the reality of humanitarian aid, the importance of self-reliance, and the tangible ways we can contribute to building a better future for displaced individuals. So, tune in, and let Dale Buscher guide you through the challenges and real-life experiences of supporting refugees around the globe.

Gender bias in workplace feedback is a pervasive and often overlooked issue, with many women in the workplace receiving feedback that can hinder their professional development and advancement.   Recent studies have found that negative personality-based reviews are up to 76% more likely to occur in women's reviews, compared to only 2% in men's reviews. In addition, men are more likely to receive actionable feedback that prepares them for leadership roles, while women tend to receive feedback that is more general and non-actionable. It is no wonder that many women struggle with confidence in the workplace due to the feedback they are receiving.  In this episode, l explored the differences between the feedback that men and women receive and the impact of that on their career development. I also covered the practical steps that can be taken to address these gender biases in the workplace and help women to succeed.   LINKS -        Women get nicer feedback and it holds then back - https://hbr.org/2023/01/women-get-nicer-feedback-and-it-holds-them-back?registration=success        Personality-Based Performance Reviews Are Fine To Give Women - As Long As Men Get Them Too - https://www.forbes.com/sites/rebekahbastian/2019/03/08/personality-based-performance-reviews-are-fine-to-give-women-as-long-as-men-get-them-too/ Men get more actionable feedback than women - https://hbr.org/2021/02/research-men-get-more-actionable-feedback-than-women  CHARITY PARTNERSHIP I also announced our charity partnership with feminist charity GFS.   For every woman who joins Be Bolder in March I will be donating £47 to enable a girl to attend a session run by GFS that helps to build their confidence and self-esteem.

Our guests for episode 49 are no strangers to the podcast - the King and Queen of FKTs Jason Hardrath and Ashly Winchester join us today as they team up to talk about doing massive efforts - Ashly with an unsupported record on the JMT - or John Muir Trail and Jason collecting his 100th FKT by bagging Washington's 100 highest peaks on Bulger's. We talk about catching COVID at 18,000 feet, hallucinating hermit crabs, supporting one another around the world and why being a good partner sometimes means being as unsupportive as possible. It's always a blast to catch up with these two - it's a show that was 10 months in the making, so if you're ready for the show, crank it up and let's go.

The Catholic Church is the largest Christian denomination in the world. And it has almost no women in leadership roles. From the smallest parish to the Vatican, Catholicism is dominated almost exclusively by men.  Church leaders and apologists will hasten to explain that this does not mean that the Catholic Church is misogynistic. The church, they say, has always defended and protected women's rights. St. Pope John Paul II wrote in his 1995 Letter to Women that “the Church desires for her part to contribute to upholding the dignity, role and rights of women.” Many will point to the church's veneration of Mary of Nazareth as evidence of a pro-woman ethos. But Catholic tradition is not exclusively patriarchal. Other threads of tradition wind back through church history to its very beginning, traditions in which women did hold positions of leadership and responsibility. The early church had women deacons. Women religious often held positions of influence. And today, under Pope Francis, doors may be opening to women to reclaim some of these positions. In today's episode of Field Hospital, Jeannie and Mike discuss the role of women in the church with internationally acclaimed scholar Phyllis Zagano, who has written extensively about women in church history, especially women deacons. Zagano has also advocated tirelessly for the restoration of the woman's diaconate—often in the face of harsh criticism.  Some of Zagano's books on the topic of women in the church include Holy Saturday: An Argument for the Restoration of the Female Diaconate in the Catholic Church (2000), Women & Catholicism: Gender, Communion, and Authority (2012), Women in Ministry: Emerging Questions about the Diaconate (2012), Women Deacons? Essays with Answers (2016), Women: Icons of Christ (2021), and Women Religious, Women Deacons: Questions and Answers (2022). Zagano has won numerous academic awards, and has taught at Fordham, Boston, and Hofstra Universities and at the Yale Divinity School.  In 2016, Pope Francis appointed her to the initial Papal Commission for the Study of the Diaconate of Women. She was nominated by the International Union of Superiors General. She continues her research at Hofstra University in Hempstead, New York.

Throughout history, including during the American Civil War, women had and made choices.  We can't tell stories by downplaying women in our complicated and messy history.   Using women of the Civil War, as a vehicle, Tracy Garrison Feinberg and I discuss empowerment, agency, and purpose.  Women's drive to improve society in many ways gives them power, and there is no boilerplate woman!  There is no single story that tells the entirety of the experiences and impact of women in history, and each one somehow turned the tide of history, even those whose names we don't know.Join us for this important conversation!Links:Women and the American Story Lifestory: Suzie Baker King TaylorWomen and the American Story Curriculum: A Nation DividedPrevious Teaching History Her Way Podcast Episode: Women Civil War Soldiers and Gender ExpressionLet's be Friends!Instagram: @teachinghistoryherwayTwitter: http://www.twitter.com/historyherwayOn the Web/Blog: http://www.teachinghistoryherway.comFacebook: http://www.facebook.com/teachinghistoryherwayLove the Teaching History Her Way Podcast?  Help fund production AND get an awesome history tee.  Check out my History Tee shop by going to my website and clicking "Merch."

When Colombian conservationist Sara Inés Lara started helping women from rural communities access family planning and education and become guardians of their own environment, she got a lot of pushback from local men and conservation colleagues. After all, it was a taboo to address environmental protection, women's empowerment and population. Seventeen years later, her NGO Women for Conservation has reached more than 2,000 women and helped the recovery of the yellow-eared parrot, which was downlisted from the IUCN Red List in 2021. More than ever, Sara is convinced that this is the correct way to do conservation. On this episode, Sara Inés Lara and Catriona Spaven Donn, Empower to Plan Coordinator from Population Matters, talk about: Why it is important to engage women in conservation Why addressing conservation, family planning and population is crucial How family planning programs help women have better lives and get involved in local protection of nature What experience Sara and Cat have had talking about population and conservation How Colombian activists saved the yellow-eared parrot If you'd like to learn more about women's rights and environmental justice, listen to the interview “The Most Effective Conservation Strategy? Empower women”. Sara Inés Lara founded Women for Conservation which has empowered more than 2,000 women in rural communities through conservation education, environmentally sustainable livelihoods, and access to family planning. Sara has been recognized as One in a Hundred Great Latin American Women by Billiken Magazine. Catriona Spaven-Donn works for UK-based charity Population Matters, which supports Women for Conservation as part of their Empower to Plan Program. Cat is passionate about the intersection of women's rights and environmental justice and has worked on women's empowerment and indigenous rights in Canada, Peru, Guatemala and Scotland.

My guest today is Debra Beal. Debra was one of the women featured in Lisa Levart's photography exhibit “Women of the Ramapough Lenape Nation”. Debra shares her own assimilation experience of how her parents initially downplayed their Native American culture when she was a child, only to pursue and embrace a relationship with her Lenape tribe when she was a young teenager. As her father's bumper sticker read “I was Indian before it was cool to be Indian”. Debra has recently retired from her 33 year career in NY State's Office of Mental Health and is exploring the ongoing delicate balance to integrate the fullness of who she truly is.  Her Indian name “Walela” translates as Hummingbird, which symbolizes Debra's desire to create harmony in the world, by building genuine, compassionate relationships, helping people and being a conduit for healing. Check out the show notes for links to see Debra featured in Lisa's photography exhibit at Bergen Community College, opened through November 24th, as well as in Myles Aronowitz's documentary. I hope this inspires you to learn of the Native people of your land; let's make Thanksgiving more meaningful, by educating ourselves and our extended family of our true history with American Indians.

“If a woman can understand how she feels on different days her cycle, then she can start dialing and being more personalized with her training. When the hormones are low, this is where women have more power, more speed, recover better, have more “mojo” because they have less central nervous system fatigue. Around ovulation, with that boost of estrogen, some women feel bulletproof and other women feel a little bit flat, and then a couple days later they'll feel bulletproof, so, understanding that as well. And then when you get into the high hormone phase, with estrogen and progesterone being the highest, this is where we want women to deload more, where they're working functional technique and they're not doing too much high intensity, they're not trying to do top-end VO2 work because physiologically you're fighting your body because there's so many different metabolic and thermoregulatory and metabolic shifts that happen with the hormones. It's really hard to do that high, high intensity in the high hormone phase.” - Dr. Stacy Sims In the words of Stacy Sims, Ph.D, women are not small men.  Dr. Sims is an applied researcher, innovator, and entrepreneur in human performance, specifically sex differences in training, nutrition, and environmental conditions.   She is dedicated to educating women so that they can use their natural cycle to their advantage and train with their physiology, not against it. Dr. Sims earned her Ph.D. in Environmental Exercise Physiology and Sports Nutrition from the University of Otago in New Zealand.  From there, she began work as an exercise physiologist and nutrition scientist at Stanford University, where she specialized women's health and performance. During her tenure at Stanford, she had the opportunity to translate earlier research into a science-based layperson's book, ROAR: How to Match Your Food and Fitness to Your Unique Female Physiology for Optimum Performance, Great Health, and a Strong, Lean Body for Life.   In the book, she provides insights into how women can adapt their nutrition, hydration, and training to optimize their performance across the lifespan. Dr. Sims's contributions to the international research environment and the sports nutrition industry have established a new niche in sports nutrition and established her reputation as an expert in sex differences in training, nutrition, and health. She is a regularly featured speaker at professional and academic conferences, including those hosted by US Olympic Committee, High-Performance Sport NZ, and USA Cycling, and is a Senior Research Associate at AUT University. I was first introduced to Dr. Sims's work by Dr. Matt Dawson and today's co-host, Dr. Mike Mallin of Wild Health, and since then, it's seems like I've heard her name everywhere!  So many Pursuing Health listeners have suggested an episode with Dr. Sims, so I was excited to have a chance to chat with her to learn more about her work.  We discuss the general differences between male and female physiology, how women can tailor their nutrition, fitness, and hydration to optimize their performance at different times in their cycle, and considerations for peri- and post-menopausal as well as pre- and post-partum athletes. *Dr. Sim's bio adapted from her website     In this episode we discuss: Dr. Sims's background and how she became interested in women's health and performance The general physiological differences between men and women and the female hormone phases Ways women can adapt their training around their cycle Methods Dr. Sims's likes for tracking the female cycle How macronutrient consumption should be adjusted for different times in the cycle How hormones can affect thirst, and considerations for hydration The importance of adjusting training intensity at different times during the cycle Tips to help female CrossFit athletes optimize their training Changes women experience during peri- and post-menopause and exercise changes that should be considered Pregnancy and post-partum training and nutrition considerations for athletes Why fasting is not ideal for female athletes Lessons Dr. Sims would share with her younger self     You can connect with Dr. Sims on her website, Instagram, and Facebook.

Does your nonprofit have a profit center? It's great when you can drive toward your budget goals through donations, grants, and other "standard" nonprofit means of creating revenue. But are you missing an opportunity to deliver even more to your beneficiaries by not creating a way to charge for what you do?Today's guest is Tamra Ryan, CEO of the Women's Bean Project. This amazing organization was founded back in the 80s on an idea and $500. They turned that investment (with which they bought beans) into a thriving organization that helps employment-challenged women gain and retain employment.Their products can be found in retail stores across the nation and that portion of their organization is run like a for-profit business. The magic happens behind the scenes where they employ and train women who otherwise would live outside of the workforce – bouncing in and out of gainful employment, and often the prison system.This is a really great episode where we discuss setting up systems and processes to help run your nonprofit like a business and how to put some new thinking to the services your organization provides to see where other revenue streams can be activated.Enjoy the show!

This is episode no. 41 and I am speaking with experienced lawyer, and advocate for survivors of domestic and family violence, Angela Lynch, CEO of Women’s Legal Service Queensland. With over 23 years in the domestic violence legal sector, Angela has a deep understanding of the issues and translates this practical legal knowledge and experience into significant law reform, policy, community legal education and safer client outcomes. In 2017 Angela’s dedication to the sector was acknowledged when she was awarded the Lawyer’s Weekly Women in Law Not-for-profit Lawyer of the Year, and Women in Law Excellence Award and the Women’s Agenda National Emerging Leader in the Legal Sector award. In this episode we discuss the work of Women’s Legal Service Qld in championing frontline operations, external advocacy, client services including for rural and regional women, and fundraising. You will hear how women’s legal service has responded to the pandemic, in particular the significant increase in demand for its services after lockdown, in changes to its service delivery, managing staff and volunteers and how it has been able to influence government policy. Regarding digital innovation, we discuss the penda app, which was a first of its kind offering to assist women with legal and financial information. Angela shares how the idea came about, where the funding came from, the challenges of hosting the app and advice she’d give to other organisations or lawyers looking to develop similar tools. We covered projects that arose when women’s legal service observed specific community needs not being met, as well as Angela’s opinions relating to family court initiatives including the lighthouse project. You should listen to this episode if you want to hear how human-centred design works in action, and how in response to the pandemic, technology is increasing access to justice.

Former President of the AVMA, current Chief Veterinary Officer at Veterinary Practice Partners and founding board member of the Women’s Veterinary Leadership Development Initiative (WVLADI), Dr. Doug Aspros has an impressive resume spanning many fields of veterinary medicine. Throughout his different positions, Doug noticed a lack of female representation in the board room. He decided to do something about it and helped create WVLADI as a response to this lack of diversity in veterinary communities. On this episode, Doug helps us analyze the male lens, its influence in veterinary medicine, and everything in between. Doug believes in raising your hand and saying yes to life in order to open doors and works to help others, women in particular, have access to better opportunities. By opening your work culture to as many types of people as possible, you will achieve greater success and create lasting happiness in your workplace. Today Doug helps to breakdown exactly how we can prepare women to take on higher leadership roles, as well as how we can alter these positions to better meet the responsibilities and needs of women. Creating a more flexible, dynamic and stress-free work environment leads to more productivity and satisfied clients, and Doug believes the key to this is giving individuals the chance to be whoever they want to be. By understanding the artificial impediments standing in the way of women and helping them knock them down you can help promote women to their fully realized roles in our profession and in society. It is time to help women realize their potential and encourage them to seek higher leadership positions for the betterment of our entire industry. Does a specific woman come to mind when listening to Doug’s inspiring feminist mentality? Give them a shoutout in the comments section on the episode page!   In This Episode Advice to those who want to take action and see more representation in leadership Why including women in leadership should matter to men Finding a diversity balance in leadership to achieve greater success What you can do to encourage a more flexible approach in your workforce Why working fewer days can lead to being more productive in the short and long term Bonus Fact - What life is like living with a Grey African Parrot   Quotes “We haven’t evolved the way we work in veterinary medicine in a way that really supports women and allows women to act as leaders and enjoy their careers.” (6:43) “There are a lot more women in the room, but I want to make sure there are whole lot more women in the room 10 years from now.” (8:48) “If you want to get any group into more prominence and give them more opportunity, you have to actually make that happen. And you can't make that happen if you don't will it to happen.” (14:24) “We all got into this profession because it actually is a wonderful profession and there are just so many good things about it, but the things that aren't great about it lets fix.” (23:07) “This is not just somebody else's problem. You as a member of the veterinary community, this is part of your problem too. And it is important for you to understand it and play some role in fixing it.” (34:37) “I'm proud of whatever contribution I have made to make this profession better.” (39:50)   Links Women’s Veterinary Leadership Development Initiative Website Veterinary Practice Partners   Find the full show notes here  Keep up with everything Podcast A Vet Follow Podcast A Vet on Facebook | Twitter | Instagram Join our free community of dedicated vet professionals looking to improve their practices and lives in our free Facebook community!

Download In this episode, Kyle and Joe host Rebecca Ann Hill and David Jay Brown, Authors of the book, Women of Visionary Art. The book showcases the work and inspiration of female artists such as Josephine Wall, Allison Grey, Amanda Sage, Martina Hoffman, Carolyn Mary Kleefeld and many others. 3 Key Points: Rebecca Ann Hill and David Jay Brown are co-authors of the book, Women of Visionary Art, which includes discussions with 18 female artists. The book and the episode are an exploration of the role that dreaming, psychedelic experiences, and mystical visions play in visionary art. There is a strong need for a balancing of masculine and feminine energies. Females tend to be more nurturing and more cooperative, and it's exactly the factors that are missing in our current world and are causing problems of greed.

Navigating Psychedelics Show Notes About David David’s background is in Psychobiology, the interface between psychology and biology He spent 10-15 years working in neuroscience and research labs His interest in Neuroscience came from his experience as a teenager, experimenting with psychedelics He wrote his first book, The Science of Psychedelics, about 10 years ago David mentions that the psychedelic renaissance has allowed him to write openly about psychedelic topics that he’s been preparing his whole life researching for About Rebecca aka Molly Moon Sparkles She has a huge creative drive She is currently studying psychology and is playing in the art program She is fascinated by entheogens, plant medicines and psychedelic compounds She is a painter and is working on the Molly Moon Magick Series that focuses on the divine feminine She wrote and illustrated the book Ecstatic Love, Lost Dreams and Mystic Visions Psychedelics and Creativity There is strong evidence that psychedelics improve creativity Music, art, technology, so many great things are influenced by psychedelics Putting the Book Together David was so fascinated with the visions he would see on psychedelics and wished that he had the talent to portray it through artwork, and then he began to see artists bring these visions to life He also saw a lot of gender inequality, that there were more men than women in the visionary art space It urged him to highlight the under recognized women in visionary art Rebecca was experimenting with other realms with plant medicines and psychedelic compounds She says her consciousness was so drastically different from any other time in her life, and she started painting her psychedelic experiences This led her to begin building community with other artists who shared the same ‘vision’ as her She said that the psychedelic experience has so much feminine nature to it that wasn't being voiced “We are going through a serious ecological crisis right now and the teachings behind the psychedelic experience is to heal the collective and help climate change” - Rebecca Stanley Krippner conducted a survey of artists and psychedelics The Imbalance of Masculine and Feminine There is an uprising of feminism with the “Me Too” movement, women in congress, women’s marches Our species has been so dominated by men and we need the nurturing and caring aspects of the feminine perspective Surprising Aspects of the Women The most surprising aspect is how much in common the women had David says it was beautiful how well each artist was connected to each other through their stories Laura Holden is completely self taught There were two women from the book that had never touched a psychedelic substance They were inspired through dreams and daydreams The psychedelic experience not only inspires the artwork, but it creates a new way of viewing artwork Kyle mentions that he always wished he could record his dreams Joe says he has been seeing research around capturing visual or imagined imagery Discovering the Artists David discovered most of the artists that he had not previously known through the community Rebecca had been a part of as visionary artists COSM and Entheon August 3rd, Rebecca and David are giving a presentation as COSM in New York Entheon, the Sanctuary for Visual art may be open by them Entheon will have workshops, painting classes, rooms to stay in, full moon ceremonies, etc. It will be an art sanctuary, a church with a spiritual and psychedelic essence Visionary art is getting into museums and becoming a recognized art form The Desperate Need for Balance Terrence McKenna told David that early on in human civilization, men didn't understand the role that sex had in creating babies The power of reproduction was within women and sex was something else Once men began thinking that they were responsible for the generation of life, they starting saying its “my baby” its “my wife” instead of ‘our’ baby or the community’s baby. It kept developing into “my child” into “my country”, “MY”. Then people started using less psychedelics and started consuming more alcohol and now everything is an over exaggerated male dominance “Females tend to be more nurturing and more cooperative, and it's exactly the factors that are missing in our current world and are causing problems of greed. It could be balanced and harmonized with more feminine energy.” - David There is a crucial imbalance from male and female in history alone But more than an imbalance between just males and females, it's about an imbalance of masculine and feminine energies Each of us, male and females have both a masculine and feminine energy We can see the masculine and feminine imbalance in the world and our planet right now. We don't need to shift to a goddess worshiping planet, but we just need to be back in balance and bring more feminine energy of nurturing and compassion and caring and healing Penny (an artist highlighted in the book) mentions about Sandos giving LSD to researchers who gave it to artists Getting Involved “If you want to get involved in painting, dancing, making jewelry, clothing, gardening, don't wait. Do it. If you are true to yourself and your own inner visions, you will succeed” - Rebecca One thing all artists have in common is fear and insecurity, so you can't let it hinder you from beginning Final Thoughts Artists like Android Jones are doing visionary artwork in virtual reality mediums David thinks visionary artwork will become only even more interactive and immersive spaces We need to find a more yin-yang balance between masculine and feminine Links Women of Visionary Art (Amazon) Women of Visionary Art (Inner Traditions) David’s Site Rebecca’s Site MollyMoonSparkle blog About Rebecca Rebecca Ann Hill (AKA Molly Moon Sparkle), is a visual artist with a wide range of experience in different creative mediums.

In this episode we talk with Rachel Cohen Yeshurun of Women of the Wall in Israel who regularly reads the Torah at the Western Wall in defiance of law on the New Moon with other women. We talk about the history of why women haven’t been allowed to pray equally at the Wall, the role of the current government in that discrimination, and how it relates to Israeli LGBTQA rights. What does it mean to be able to pray together? Why is it important to have equality for all genders in religion? Note: This interview was recorded at the beginning of October. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to get it released before the prayer times mentioned in the interview. However, Rachel does mention that the prayers at the Wall happen monthly, and that you’re welcome to join them on the new moon from wherever you are to pray in solidarity with them. Rachel Cohen Yeshurun was schooled at Bais Yaakov of Montreal and was active with Beth Ora Synagogue youth. Rachel made aliyah in 1989 but took 22 years to discover Women Of the Wall! She received a Bsc. in Mathematics from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and is currently studying towards a second degree in Computer Science. Rachel works as a computer programmer and is chair of Kehilla Masortit Ma’aleh Adumim. She was the chair of Women of the Wall, and more recently taking on the role of gabbait for the group.
