In this episode, Rabbi Sheila Peltz Weinberg reflects on Jewish identity, mindfulness, and activism following October 7th. Through poetry and meditation, she reframes the High Holy Days, inviting us to consider what it means to truly listen to the shofar, to embrace our shared humanity across deep political divides, and to find within ourselves a place of forgiveness.
