In this special installment of Strive for Truth, Rabbi Michael Cohen and I step back from our study of Rav Dessler's essays to explore how these profound ideas apply in everyday life. Why do so many people remain stuck despite sincere efforts to grow? How do the stories we tell ourselves, our hidden assumptions, and our internal dialogue shape our relationships, careers, spiritual lives, and personal happiness? Drawing upon both Rav Dessler's teachings and his experience coaching individuals, Rabbi Cohen shares practical insights and real-life examples that demonstrate how greater self-awareness can help us move beyond old patterns, see reality more clearly, and create meaningful change in our lives.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

Have you ever wondered what it truly means to remain steady when life delivers moments that feel impossible to carry? In this episode of Becoming Unshakable, I sit down with Rabbi Daniel Cohen for a deeply personal and reflective conversation about faith, gratitude, and the inner strength that helps people move through life's most difficult seasons. Rabbi Cohen shares the story that shaped his perspective early in life, losing his mother at a young age, and how that experience forced him to confront grief, purpose, and the deeper meaning behind the moments that shake us the most. Rather than allowing tragedy to define his path, Rabbi Cohen describes how he made a conscious choice to carry his mother's light forward. That decision eventually shaped his work as a rabbi, author, and speaker, guiding others through questions about legacy, purpose, and how we want to be remembered. Drawing on years of counseling people through loss and transition, he explains why reflecting on our mortality can become a powerful catalyst for living more intentionally today. Throughout our conversation, we explore the idea that resilience is not about avoiding hardship. It is about building the spiritual and emotional muscles that allow us to grow through it. Rabbi Cohen shares how practices like gratitude, prayer, reflection, and service to others help anchor us when life becomes uncertain. Even listeners who do not identify with a particular faith tradition will find wisdom in his perspective on purpose, presence, and the daily choice to bring light into the lives of others. We also discuss the role relationships play in resilience, why allowing others to support us can be an act of generosity rather than weakness, and how modern life, especially our constant connection to technology, can quietly pull us away from the moments that matter most. Rabbi Cohen offers a simple but powerful daily practice that combines gratitude, reflection, and human connection to help people realign when life feels overwhelming. This conversation is a reminder that becoming unshakable does not mean we will never face loss, doubt, or fear. It means learning how to meet those moments with deeper faith, a sense of purpose, and the awareness that every breath offers another chance to grow.  

Every morning, you're handed something priceless.Not money.Not luck.A diamond.Rabbi Daniel Cohen explains a powerful spiritual idea from Jewish mysticism:Every day God gives us an unpolished diamond. By the end of the day, we give it back.The only question is…How much did we polish it?In this conversation, Rabbi Cohen shares the mindset that can completely change the way you see your life, your purpose, and even your struggles.We explore:• Why thinking about death can actually make you live better• The 20-second elevator moment that can change someone's life• Why helping someone else is the fastest way to escape depression and darkness• The difference between being a river vs. a dam• How tiny acts of kindness ripple through generations• The powerful exercise: 5 words you want to be remembered byMost people believe legacy is something that happens after they die.Rabbi Cohen explains why legacy is created every single day.And it might start with something as simple as a smile, a conversation, or a moment of kindness.Learn more about Rabbi Daniel Cohen

Living with Purpose Today So You're Remembered Tomorrow: The Sacred Art of Legacy BuildingOverviewIn a world that often feels overwhelming and chaotic, Rabbi Daniel Cohen reminds us that our greatest power lies not in changing the entire world, but in transforming one moment, one encounter, one life at a time. This deeply inspiring conversation explores the sacred ingredients for living with intentional purpose and creating a legacy that matters - starting today, not someday. Through powerful stories of doormen who pray, strangers who say "get up," and the profound difference between being "great" and being "grateful," Rabbi Cohen illuminates the path to authentic leadership and meaningful impact.Living with Purpose Today So You're Remembered Tomorrow: The Sacred Art of Legacy BuildingGuest: Rabbi Daniel Cohen, Spiritual Leader of Congregation Agudath ShalomHost: Julie RigaAbout This EpisodeJulie sits down with Rabbi Daniel Cohen, nationally sought-after speaker and author dedicated to helping people design their lives around meaning, purpose, and legacy. Through his book What Will They Say About You When You're Gone? and his Legacy Academy, Rabbi Cohen inspires audiences to become their best selves.Fun Fact: His favorite food is his wife's chocolate chip cookies - fitting, since his first word was "cookie."The Three Sacred Ingredients for Success1. Making Every Encounter Matter The power of small gestures. Elevator moments and hospital hallways as sacred opportunities. How a doorman's prayer changed a cancer patient's journey. The story of "Get up, get up" that created fifty years of legacy.2. Creating Space to Hear the Soul Moving away the layers to discover what's within us. Seizing meditative moments: walking without your phone, writing, praying, silence. The Sabbath principle: turning off the outside world to turn on the inner world. Aligning your body with your soul.3. Living with Intention - Daily, Not Someday The unpolished diamond: God gives us a new one every day to polish and radiate light. The three ultimate questions: Did I live? Did I love? Did I matter? Making time count rather than letting time pass.Memorable Quotes"God's not asking us to change the world, but to change the world of one person every day.""When you wake up in the morning, God believes the world needs you. And when you live with that awareness, no encounter is random.""The moment you add on those three letters - 'ful' - you become filled with a whole new way of living, because you're not just great, you're grateful.""Every day we get an unpolished diamond, and God asks us: how much of that light did you radiate?"Key InsightsThe Hospital Doorman: A cancer patient at Sloan Kettering said the most memorable person wasn't a doctor or nurse, but the doorman who said: "I'll pray for you and I hope I'll never see you again." The doorman understood he stood at the threshold where people leave with anxiety.The "Get Up" Legacy: A Holocaust survivor shared that after liberation, he was too weak to stand. A friend said simply: "Get up, get up." Fifty years later, he told hundreds including his wife, children, and students: "Everything I have, I owe to my friend who said those words. Without him, I would not be here today."Key TakeawaysFocus on small, meaningful acts of kindness that lift someone upCreate space to hear your soul - turn off the outside world regularlyPolish your diamond daily: How much light did I radiate today?Words carry weight and light - never underestimate their powerLive with grateful, not just greatAnswer the three questions now: Did I live?

In this episode, Rabbi Cohen and I, explore a powerful framework for understanding spiritual growth when effort feels slow, incentives disappear, or life stops following the system we thought we understood. If you've ever wondered why progress sometimes feels incremental and other times requires a complete inner shift, this conversation offers clarity and reassurance. You'll gain perspective on how humility, persistence, and asking for help each play a role in becoming who you're meant to be, and why both steady growth and sudden transformation are part of Hashem's design. This episode provides language for navigating setbacks, loss of momentum, and seasons of uncertainty—while strengthening trust that every stage of the journey has purpose.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

In this opening episode of Strive for Truth, I'm joined by Rabbi Michael Cohen to introduce the work of Rabbi Eliyahu Dessler and to explain why this text requires a fundamentally different kind of learning. Rather than approaching it as philosophy or behavior modification, we frame Strive for Truth as a disciplined study of how a person thinks, chooses, and relates to reality itself. Rabbi Cohen shares his own background with this work, having studied it through Rabbi Aryeh Carmell—the direct student of Rav Dessler who rendered these teachings into English and authored Strive for Truth. Together, we explore the historical context of the book, why it opens with happiness and reward, and why real transformation requires patience, repetition, and honest self-examination. This episode lays the foundation for a long-term series meant not just to understand these ideas intellectually, but to allow them to reshape how we live.Join the Conversation! Be part of our growing community—join the Shema Podcast for the Perplexed WhatsApp group to share feedback, discuss episodes, and suggest future topics.

What if your best eulogy isn't someday—it's being written by the choices you make before dinner? That's the provocative idea Rabbi Daniel Cohen brings as we explore how small acts of kindness, daily gratitude, and a clear sense of calling can turn a noisy, angry culture into a field of quiet, meaningful wins.We start with the tension most of us feel: emotions leading the day and outrage filling the feed. Rabbi Cohen reframes it with a simple image—the body as the horse and the soul as the jockey—and asks who's really in charge when the stakes rise. From there, he shares the moment that shaped his ministry: losing his mother at 21, and the wake-up question that followed—What will they say about you when you're gone? Instead of morbidity, he offers a method: reverse-engineer your legacy through daily practice. One minute of prayer to ask for strength. One minute of gratitude with no repeats to train your eyes toward gifts. One minute of outreach to make another person's day.We also dig into Elijah moments—those times you realize you are the answer to someone's prayer—and how they often hide in a lobby greeting, a text to a mentor, or an extra minute of eye contact that says “you matter.” Along the way, we talk about faith beyond labels, mining for gold instead of digging for dirt, and why attention is the most underrated form of love in our families. Rabbi Cohen's stories—from hospital doors to city sidewalks—reveal how presence, humility, and service scale better than any life hack and last longer than any headline.If you're ready to swap cynicism for purpose and turn intention into action, this conversation gives you a clear next step you can try before the credits roll. Listen, share with a friend who needs hope, and tell us the one person you'll lift up today.
