In this conversation with Rabbi Cohen, you’ll gain a clearer understanding of why even intelligent, well-intentioned people often struggle to see the truth—and what to do about it. You’ll walk away with practical tools to recognize hidden biases, shift from a mindset of taking to giving, and begin untangling the layers that distort your decisions, relationships, and sense of self. Most importantly, this episode will help you access the deeper clarity already within you, so you can make better choices, build stronger relationships, and live with greater alignment and purpose.
