The Connected Parent: Jewish Wisdom for a Resilient Family
The Connected Parent: Jewish Wisdom for a Resilient Family
Do you want to share a meaningful Jewish identity with your family, but don't know where to begin?
As a parent, you feel a deep pull to give your children a sense of belonging—an anchor in a complicated world. But that desire is often met with a wall of uncertainty. Perhaps your own Jewish upbringing was complicated or nonexistent. Maybe you're wrestling with your own doubts and feel like a hypocrite trying to teach something you're still exploring. So you hesitate, and the opportunity for connection feels like it's slipping away.
This leaves you feeling stuck—wanting to provide a foundation for your family, but feeling adrift yourself.
The Connected Parent: Jewish Wisdom for a Resilient Family is a two-part guided course designed to help you move from confusion to confidence. This is not a religious school or a history lecture. It is a practical, heartfelt journey to help you discover your authentic Jewish voice and share it with the people you love most.
Our unique path guides you first inward, then outward:
Module 1: Finding Our "Why" in a World of "What" - Before you can share anything, you need a solid foundation. In this module, we give you the space to explore your own story and experiences. You will sift through the noise of tradition and expectation to build a solid, internal compass by defining the core values—like community, justice, or curiosity—that you truly want to pass on.
Module 2: The Golden Chain: Connecting Your Child to the Family Story - Once you are grounded in your "why," we give you the practical tools to share it. You'll learn the simple art of storytelling to transform your family's history into a living, breathing source of connection and resilience, strengthening your link in the "Golden Chain" for the next generation.
After completing this course, you will:
Feel a clear and confident sense of your personal "why" for engaging with Jewish life.
Possess a toolkit of simple, powerful techniques to open the door to deeper conversations with your children (no matter their age).
Transform from feeling like a hesitant student to feeling like an empowered family storyteller.
Be able to create authentic, meaningful Jewish experiences for your family that are rooted in your values, not just obligation.
This course is for you if:
You identify as culturally or secularly Jewish and want to find a meaningful way to engage.
You feel "outside" of traditional religious institutions.
You are a parent, step-parent, or grandparent to children of any age—from toddlers to adults.
You are ready to stop worrying about doing it "right" and start building a connection that feels real.
You don't need to be an expert to be the storyteller and guide your family needs. You just need a place to start. Join us and find your path.
