Sara Beth talks with Rabbi Mychal Springer, founding director of the Center for Pastoral Education at JTS. Rabbi Springer shares her insights about living with brokenness derived both from her own losses, and from a career of helping others in crisis. And Sara Beth reveals why she’s been avoiding Rabbi Springer for all these years.

Rabbi Springer is stepping down from her role at JTS this summer to become Manager of Clinical Pastoral Education at New York-Presbyterian Hospital.
