Description

What do iconic Jewish women from across the centuries teach us about leadership, faith, and inner strength? Justin sits with Dr. Aliza Lavie—author, scholar, and former Member of Knesset—to explore her groundbreaking new book Iconic Jewish Women, a collection of 59 remarkable stories of Jewish heroines, from Bruriah and Sarah Schenirer to Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Doña Gracia Nasi, as well as her book.


We also dive into Dr. Lavie’s work on tehinot — traditional women’s prayers — and what they reveal about the soul of Jewish spiritual life. And we hear firsthand what it was like to bring Torah values into the halls of the Israeli parliament.


If you're curious about the spiritual legacy of Jewish women, the evolution of prayer, and how values translate into action, this conversation will move and inspire you.
