S1 Ep 239239. Beyond Fear: What It’s Really Trying to Tell You
What if fear wasn’t something to avoid—but something to understand? In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore the deeper purpose behind our emotions and how they are designed to guide us, not derail us. When we begin to see every moment as purposeful, we unlock the ability to move beyond fear and into trust. Even when we don’t fully understand what’s unfolding, we can choose to focus on the good—and trust that there is always more happening beneath the surface than we can see. Because the truth is: We are only ever seeing a small piece of a much bigger, more beautiful picture.
S1 Ep 238238. Your Tikkune Revealed Part 2: Why You Keep Getting Triggered
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry, we explore the powerful truth that your tikkune—your soul’s correction—reveals itself again and again through life’s challenges, especially through the people who trigger you most. Rather than avoiding discomfort, we’re invited to see it as a mirror pointingdirectly to the inner work we’re here to do. You’ll learn why spiritual growth requires actively identifying and transforming these patterns so you can begin the work your soul came here to complete.“Tikkune is not just about correcting this issue so that it doesn’t repeat itself, but it’s the knowledge that this issue within us is the barrier between ourselves and success in all other areas of our lives.” – Michael Berg
S1 Ep 231237. Why Challenges Repeat: Understanding Your Soul’s Tikkune
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore tikkune—the soul’s correction. According to ancient wisdom, the challenges we face in this lifetime are not random; they are connected to the actions and lessons of many lifetimes. Your tikkune is the sum of the patterns, obstacles, and opportunities that invite your soul to grow. The very thing standing between where you are and where you want to be may be the correction your soul most desires.

S1 Ep 236236. Bridges Across Faiths: A Talk with Dr. Alon Goshen-Gottstein
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we speak with Dr. Alon Goshen-Gottstein and explore how our differences—especially across faiths—can become sources of wisdom rather than division. We reflect on how fear narrows our vision, while prayer and genuine listening open bridges to ourselves, to God, and to one another. By embracing prayer as both speaking and listening, we discover how faith at its best can lead to deep personal transformation.

S1 Ep 235235. The Secret to Lasting Joy: Why Happiness Isn’t Enough
Happiness is fleeting, but joy is the stable, natural state of the soul. In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore joy as something we don’t need to chase or create, but simply access. Beneath our emotions exists a constant source of joy, rooted in consciousness and connection to the Light. We’ll discuss how joy serves as a powerful spiritual tool, helping remove negativity, judgment, and darkness from our lives. Through certainty, inner growth, and acts of service, we can experience true fulfillment and learn to live each day with lasting joy.
S1 Ep 234234. Love Isn’t the Hard Part: The Truth About Lasting Relationships
Finding a life partner isn’t about chasing “the one.” It starts with doing the inner work. In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore why diminishing the ego is essential for lasting love and how conflict can be a tool for growth instead of a battleground. We talk about why showing up as your best self (consistently) matters more than being right. This conversation offers a grounded, honest look at what it really takes to build a healthy, growing partnership.
S1 Ep 233233. Is Your Boredom a Sign? Turning "Meh" Into Meaning
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore what happens when we start to feel “meh” about life. Moments of boredom are actually signs to look inward. When we take responsibility for our inner work, we create space to bring more Light into the world—and into every area of our lives. We unpack why feeling uninspired is often a sign that we’ve stopped showing up for ourselves. When we nourish our souls with spiritual wisdom, something powerful happens: We want more, we feel more alive, and we reconnect to a sense of purpose greater than ourselves.

S1 Ep 232232. True Purpose: How Small Decisions Shape a Meaningful Life
What if your purpose isn’t something you find, but something you practice—moment by moment? In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore what it truly means to live in alignment with your soul. When you show up for yourself every day—especially when it’s uncomfortable or difficult—you begin to uncover who you really are and why you’re here. Purpose isn’t defined by milestones, titles, or accolades. It’s revealed through daily choices that occur in less than a minute.

S1 Ep 231231. New Year, New Power: Letting Go to Create Real Change
As we set New Year’s resolutions, we often focus on what we want to create or achieve. In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore a powerful shift: lasting change comes not from more effort, but from letting go of what no longer serves us. Effort alone isn’t enough—release is part of the work. Make this the year you own your inner power. When something is worth doing, it’s worth doing with the Light. Let go, align, and step into the great things you’re capable of.

S1 Ep 230230. Through Darkness to Light: Elizabeth Smart on Healing and Hope
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we are joined by Elizabeth Smart for a powerful and deeply human conversation. She opens up about the realities of grief, healing, and choosing peace in the aftermath of unimaginable darkness. Together, we explore why healing isn’t linear, why some wounds echo long after the moment has passed, and how it’s possible to build a meaningful life even while carrying the imprint of loss. We also dive into the profound importance of support, connection, and community—and how none of us are meant to heal alone.

S1 Ep 229229. Abundant Ever After with Cathy Heller
In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we talk with author, teacher, and podcaster Cathy Heller. Together, we’ll explore the profound idea that each of us has the power to “tune in” to the Creator and manifest our highest potential. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the noise of your own mind, this episode offers a gentle reminder: Wisdom doesn’t live in the mind at all—it lives in the heart. And reconnecting with that deeper knowing might just change the way you experience your entire life.
S1 Ep 228228. Gratitude as Alchemy: Transforming Challenges into Blessings
In a world wired for comparison, anxiety, and endless wanting, gratitude becomes nothing short of a rebellion. In this holiday snack-sized episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore how choosing to appreciate what is—instead of obsessing over what’s missing—defies an entire system built on our dissatisfaction. Most people treat gratitude as a reaction, but spiritual wisdom teaches that real gratitude is proactive. It’s a lens, not a list. It’s how we recognize potential, not just blessings. It’s how we say “yes” to what could be, not only “thank you” for what already exists. Join us for this transformative conversation on radical appreciation.

S1 Ep 227227. Awakening the Soul: Finding Joy in Everyday Life
Do you wake up each morning with a sense of excitement for what’s ahead, or are you just going through the motions? In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore how living a truly spiritual life renews every part of who we are. When we stay connected to the Light of the Creator, we experience rejuvenation, joy, and a deeper sense of being alive. Joy and inspiration are Divine gifts, and no matter how many times we fall, the soul always whispers: try again.

S1 Ep 226226. Real Love, Real Work: A Relationship Q&A

We’ll discuss why personal growth alone isn’t enough and how real transformation occurs when we’re willing to grow together. We’ll also unpack how to release guilt and shame, forgive ourselves, and use every experience—even our mistakes—as fuel for growth.
