The hardest chapters of your life often become the clearest mirror of your values. When Rabbi Jonathan Cohen woke up one Shabbat (Saturday) morning unable to move, he had no idea he was facing a life-altering medical emergency. What followed - emergency brain surgery, a cancer diagnosis, and a whirlwind of hospital visits - could have broken his spirit. Instead, it clarified his purpose. In this raw and deeply human conversation, Jonathan - affectionately known as "JoCo" - shares how he continues to show up with purpose during hard times, for his family, his community, and himself, even in the midst of fear, fatigue, and the unknown. With humor, wisdom, and an unmistakable warmth, he invites us to rethink what it means to live meaningfully when life turns upside down. This isn't just a story about illness. It's a story about resilience, presence, and the power of showing up with purpose, even when everything else falls away. In this conversation about showing up with purpose during hard times, you'll hear: The Shabbat (Saturday) morning that changed everything for Jonathan How he stayed grounded in his values through a health crisis and what helps him through the hard times What it meant for him to suddenly be a patient What makes a visit meaningful when someone is seriously ill Caring for others and visiting communities affected by October 7, even as he confronts his own health challenges Jonathan's reflections on vulnerability, community, and setting boundaries And many more insights   TIMESTAMPS 00:00 – Introduction to Jonathan Cohen's Journey 01:37 – Life Before the Cancer Diagnosis 07:27 – The Morning Everything Changed 13:59 – Emergency Brain Surgery and Hospitalization 21:03 – Adjusting to Life as a Patient 26:50 – Support from Family and Friends 32:09 – Navigating Visits and Staying Positive 36:12 – What Makes a Visit Truly Meaningful 40:10 – Balancing Illness with Family Life 40:57 – Creative Ways Visitors Made an Impact 42:44 – Community Engagement as a Healing Practice 45:44 – The Therapeutic Power of Getting Outside 47:37 – Supporting Others Through Small Gestures 50:28 – Seeing Life Differently Through Illness 55:42 – Fighting vs. Managing Illness 59:33 – Finding Strength Through Support and Positivity 01:02:44 – Final Reflections and Life Lessons   ABOUT THE GUEST Rabbi Jonathan Cohen (affectionately known as "JoCo") is a dynamic force of inspiration within the Jewish community.

In this impromptu episode, I share a powerful realization about spiritual growth and how it mirrors physical training. Inspired by my morning workout and the wisdom of Rabbi Cohen and Rabbi Pill, I uncover the key spiritual muscle Hashem wants us to strengthen in Adar—joy. Just as different times of the year call for different focuses, this month is about cultivating Simcha, even (and especially) when challenges arise. Through personal experiences and insights from Torah, we explore how joy transforms our mitzvos, davening, and connection to Hashem.Listen in to discover how to build your spiritual strength and ensure your avodah is infused with true Simcha!Join the conversation!

In this episode, I sit down with Rabbi Yaakov Cohen to explore the profound Torah-based principles behind manifesting and co-creating reality. Drawing from his book, The Jewish Guide to Manifesting, Rabbi Cohen reveals how our thoughts shape the world around us, the spiritual mechanics of belief, and the power of aligning our consciousness with Hashem's will. We discuss practical techniques for harnessing positive energy, overcoming self-limiting beliefs, and using prayer as a tool for transformation.· Order the book – The Jewish Guide to Manifesting· Join Rabbi Cohen's live class on manifesting – Click here  Meeting ID: 874 8996 7085  Passcode: 249193· Watch recorded classes – Click here· Join the conversation!

During the rabbi's sabbatical, every 2nd Shabbat of the month is not recorded so the congregation can have after services an on-site "Nosh & Drash" in which the week's Torah section ("Parashat Ha-Shavu'a") is discussed while we eat together. So – this week, in lieu of a recorded sermon from the service, we offer the pilot episode of an experimental podcast Rabbi Cohen and Beth El's social media team recorded in December 2018. We feel the pilot has genuine value for anyone interested or involved in Two Testament Judaism. We hope you enjoy it, and pray you are nourished by it. Shalom!
