Where Do You Place Your Faith? | The Truth Hurts, Episode 14

Episode notes

About this episode

Our beliefs shape our lives, including where we place our trust and what brings up resistance. What do you believe? Do you have faith (emunah) at all, and if so, in what?

In episode 14, Gili and Tal explore these questions and others that resist easy answers. Do you have to meet certain standards before you can speak with the Creator? Or can that relationship make room for a more flexible “both/and” way of thinking?

They describe faith as a muscle that grows stronger with practice. They also look at divine providence (hashgacha pratit) in everyday life and ask how it works alongside personal faith.

Listen in for a closer look at your own faith muscle and practical ways to strengthen and sustain it.

More about this episode

A practical way to strengthen faith

The conversation moves from reflection to practice, helping listeners examine what they believe, see how those beliefs shape daily life, and approach faith more intentionally.

It begins with honest self-examination: What do I believe? How is it shaping my life? From there, Gili and Tal turn to practice and the idea that exercising the faith muscle is what makes it stronger.

The questions soon become more personal. Where am I placing my trust? What brings up resistance in me? What kind of conversation do I believe I can have with the Creator, and what do I think I must do before I can begin?

They then consider the place of divine providence in everyday life and its relationship to personal faith. A practical segment brings the discussion down to earth with ways to exercise faith and keep it strong from day to day.

The episode invites us to notice the beliefs already at work in our lives and learn how to sustain faith as an ongoing practice. Its questions and practical insights may support a more conscious, balanced way of living.

About the podcast

Listening to The Truth Hurts feels like sitting in on a healing session.

The truth can hurt. It’s right there in the name. But we’re not here to cause pain. Quite the opposite.

In each episode, two women sit down for an honest conversation: an Emotional Healer and her client.

We talk about healing and consciousness, faith and science, the body and soul, personal growth, energy, and different approaches to healing. Above all, we face the truth no one says out loud: everything around us is upside down.

Is this podcast for you?

  • You want to gain insight and improve your quality of life.
  • You want to make a change.
  • You want a deeper understanding of the laws of the universe.
  • You want to live a healthy life in body and soul.
  • You want to take away something you can carry with you for life.
