Whatever “chizuk” means to you, we all need it. Whether it’s inspiration, validation, support or cheerleading, chizuk is what keeps us going when the going gets tough, or when we’re just not feeling it. Chizuk isn’t just for those of us who may be struggling religiously. We all can use a boost of strengthening to help us get through our daily lives, to keep us connected to our Judaism, to remind us of our purpose, and to help us get through those rough spots.
Barrie Feld is the founding director of the Chizuk MIssion, and she lives and breathes chizuk. We brought her on DMC to hear why she thinks we all need chizuk, and what chizuk really means to her.
On this episode, we discuss:
Barrie’s quality of ayin tov and how that connects to chizuk
Where she gets her chizuk from
Why she saw a need to create the Chizuk Mission
How the Chizuk Mission makes an impact
The main challenges facing women in staying connected to their Yiddishkeit
The importance of finding what types of chizuk works for you
We’d love to hear from you. You can find Deep Meaningful Conversations on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter, and you can email us at dmcthepodcast@gmail.com.
