Join Rabbi Miriam Berger and Abigail Morris for a thoughtful conversation exploring the meaning of Shavuot.  From revelation and renewal, to relationships, resilience, and, of course, cheesecake.

From the story of Ruth and Naomi to ritual immersion, lifelong learning, and the power of community, this episode offers a warm and reflective invitation to pause, look back at how far we have come, and consider what we want to carry forward.
