In this episode of In Search of More, host Eli Nash sits down with Rivkah Slonim, co-author of Holy Intimacy, to explore her formative years in Crown Heights during Chabad's "Golden Age" and its lasting impact on American Jewish identity. Their conversation weaves through the complexities of Jewish teachings, community outreach, and the historical challenges faced by Chabad, while also delving into modern issues of intimacy and sexuality. Slonim discusses the importance of open dialogue about sensitive topics—ranging from marriage and conversion to the stigma of pornography addiction and the emotional toll on women—advocating for transparency, self-compassion, and genuine communication as vital tools for healing and deeper spiritual connection.
