Inspiration for the Nation with Yaakov Langer

Rabbi Moshe Don Kestenbaum spent 50 years chasing approval, validation, and self-esteem. Then the rosh yeshiva and author of The Self-Esteem Trap realized it was all a lie. In this raw conversation, he reveals the trap, why your ego is running your life, and the one shift that sets you free.

Peter Gaffney was raised Catholic in the UK and was building a career as a semi-professional footballer. Then he lost his contract, moved halfway across the planet, and through the fitness industry started a journey that led him to convert to Judaism. But his story really begins before he was born, when his mother was pregnant and having a tremendously hard time with everything and a mysterious woman she had never met stopped her and changed her life. In this conversation, Peter shares how his life came full circle, why he believes he was kept here for a reason, and the mission he now lives by every day.

Shoshana Lichtman grew up in a Conservadox Jewish home, but over time, she and her family drifted away from Judaism. Years later, Shoshana found her way back to Torah, becoming fully frum and embracing an Orthodox Jewish lifestyle.

Then she discovered something shocking: She wasn't actually Jewish.

After years of keeping Shabbos, learning Torah, and living a frum life, Shoshana learned she would need to undergo a halachic conversion to Judaism.
