- 45 - Growing Up and Changing
The obstacles, the stakes, the joys.
What does a magical conversation that lasts through the night until 9 am, look like?
Growing up and changing requires insourcing - what are the obstacles it encounters, and how to overcome them?
The stakes of not growing up are huge but what emerges from change is spectacular.
Learn what it looks like in this episode.
Tue, 06 Dec 2022 - 28min - 44 - Navigating Life with Insourcing
Navigating life isn't easy. Often we go, go, go and feel like we can't catch our breath. And when we do need help, we often outsource our solutions to others.
Taking time to reflect on our own lives in order to gain agency is crucial. Making choices to increase our lives vibrancy doesn't need to be outsourced.
Everyone can learn how to do it. This podcast will help you learn how.
Thank you for listening!

Mon, 14 Nov 2022 - 27min - 43 - Moving Forward - Reflecting on 21 Years
Over the past 14 months, since we published our last podcast, we have been hard at work developing, applying, and teaching the pedagogy and skills of self-reflection and growth through language and finding voice.
This will be the last episode of a New Conversation with Chanie and Peretz. Moving forward our podcast will be called the Torah of Conversation!
This episode, recorded in front of a live audience, is a reflective conversation on our 21 years at Brandeis and our dream for the future.
The conversation is skillfully moderated by the Jacob S. Potofsky Professor Emerita of Sociology, Shulamit Reinharz.
We invite you to join us in upcoming episodes as we explore the torah of conversation.
Wed, 01 Jun 2022 - 1h 02min - 42 - 3 Steps to a Conversation
Grab a drink of your choice and join us in the Chein living room!
In this episode you will hear exactly what a conversation using the three steps of ‘let-it-land’, ‘tell- me-more’, and ‘name the thing’ can sound like.
Through a real conversation about concerns surrounding the upcoming Passover holiday, we move away from the abstract to explicitly model what happens when using these three tools and demonstrate how it can lead to a more productive conversation.
Mon, 08 Mar 2021 - 14min - 41 - Conversation Creator - Name the Thing
‘Naming the thing’ is critical in taking a conversation to a new level and greater depth.
In this episode, we share what naming the thing has done to our relationships with others and each other.
‘Naming the thing’ is about putting forward what is unsaid but fully present, taking up space, or weighing heavily on either of the participants.
We explore what prevents “naming the thing” and what can happen when done well.
Mon, 01 Mar 2021 - 13min - 40 - Conversation Creator - Tell Me More
In this episode, we share three simple words that can make any conversation deeper, more thoughtful, and more productive: Tell Me More.
When you invite someone to “tell me more,” you’re inviting them to look within themselves and open up another layer to the conversation. The listener’s role becomes less about offering advice or solutions to a problem but supporting the other’s own exploration.
Not only does this help the one sharing their feelings, but it also strengthens the relationship between the two in conversation.
Mon, 22 Feb 2021 - 12min - 39 - Conversation Creator - Let it Land
Think about a recent conversation you had with someone. Did you find yourself formulating a response in your head before the other person finished their thought? In this episode, we talk about the value of “letting it land” - taking in what someone is offering to you in a conversation, pausing, and then engaging with a response.
We also discuss how important it is to have conversations with those you love, even when a relationship feels perfectly fine as is. It is about digging deeper and opening up a richness that can only be accessed through conversation.
Mon, 15 Feb 2021 - 14min - 38 - What's Preventing Conversations?
What prevents someone from having a conversation? Often people want easy life fixes; they turn to self-help books or TED Talks or lectures telling them how to solve their problems. This keeps someone from looking inside themselves, considering their reality, and engaging with it alongside another person. In this podcast, we discuss these conversation preventers and others. Instead of turning to others for fixes, we encourage the practice of conversation.
Tue, 09 Feb 2021 - 12min - 37 - What's Compelling Us?
Chanie and Peretz continue the conversation about approaching Judaism and life from a healthy, wholesome perspective. Chanie shares what has driven her to speak on this topic - her upbringing in a community that often demanded her identity be completely centered around Jewish expectations, as well as her current roles as a mother, a wife, and a mentor. Both also share how their approach to engaging students and adults with Judaism has evolved to allow a broader discussion not based on Jewish text alone, but around one’s personal experience and one’s whole, authentic self.
Mon, 01 Feb 2021 - 13min - 36 - Navigating the Intersection of Life and Judaism
In this episode, Chanie and Peretz frame an ongoing conversation about what it means to consider the interplay of life and Judaism. They suggest that for many, the demands of life can take priority, relegating Judaism to the backseat. The opposite also occurs - Judaism is the only way one knows how to approach the world, which can prevent them from taking an honest look at the dynamics in their lives and their relationships. With these possibilities, how can one live Jewishly, so to speak, through their own lens? Chanie and Peretz suggest the best way of thinking about this question is through conversation that allows for deep and honest thinking about the role Judaism plays in our lives, and vice versa.
Mon, 25 Jan 2021 - 10min - 35 - Raw Intimacy in the Bedroom
The raw intimacy between a committed couple nurtures their overall relationship and also reflects it, for better or worse.
In this episode we reflect on conversations we had with committed couples exploring this critical yet often insufficiently discussed topic. A video recording of this conversation can be viewed at www.M54.co.
We welcome your thoughts and feedback.
Sun, 30 Aug 2020 - 13min - 34 - Our Narratives
In this episode titled, 'Our Narratives', we begin a new series of conversations on topics we’ve explored with various groups, or as we call them pods, in M54. Our narratives guide us through life and usually enter the room before we do. The narratives handed to us are layered with the ones we create on our own. Some we adapt and others we discard. Our navigation through them is perhaps the story of our lives. In this conversation we explore some of the dynamics that make up our narratives. A full list of topics as well as a video recording of this conversation can be found on the M54 website, M54.co. If there is a particular topic from that list that you would like us to discuss, let us know!
Sun, 16 Aug 2020 - 12min - 33 - The M54 Story
We've not published a podcast since the onset of Covid-19 in March. At first, like many, we were bewildered and living in a sort of haze. Then in the later weeks we began exploring something we've been dreaming of for some time. Here is that story. A video recording of this conversation can be viewed at www.m54.co.
Thu, 06 Aug 2020 - 12min - 32 - OT: The Balancing Challenge of a Torah Educator
Being in a healthy relationship with someone demands that the character of the people be present and vibrant. Paying someone to begin a relationship with Judaism taints the potency of it. In this podcast we discuss our drive and commitment to nurture people’s characters in order to be in a healthy relationship with Judaism. *OT [Our Thoughts] are episodes in which Chanie and Peretz discuss the previous episode’s conversation with a guest.
Wed, 19 Feb 2020 - 11min - 31 - A Debate on Pay-to-Pray (actually study)
Rabbi Beryl Gershenfeld is a pioneer in Jewish college student engagement who introduced a new, yet old method, to engage college students in Jewish learning. Namely, to pay them. His success has spawned other organizations, including Chabad, to imitate it. We disagree with this approach and in this episode the issue is debated.
Sun, 26 Jan 2020 - 25min - 30 - The Undercurrent of Chabad
Listen to the story of a person belonging to a prominent Talmudic and Chassidic family, and deeply immersed in Torah learning and Mitzvot observance, whose Jewish void was filled by Chabad. For anyone who cares to understand Chabad beyond the hugs and chicken soup, his tale is a window into the undercurrent of Chabad.
Fri, 20 Dec 2019 - 35min - 29 - OT: Community Keeps. Community Kills.
Community is deeply formative in people's lives and how we navigate it plays a large part in forming who we are. Identifying its complexities is vital in knowing how to harness its benefits and avoid its landmines. In this episode we explore it from our personal observations and experiences. *OT [Our Thoughts] are episodes in which Chanie and Peretz discuss the previous episode’s conversation with a guest.
Sun, 12 Jan 2020 - 15min - 27 - OT: High Time for a New Type of Institution
Engaging in an immersive Jewish learning experience can be transformative but at times also unhealthy. It also seems off putting to the average individual who desires to engage in immersive Jewish learning. An institution that can dance between being immersive but not yet transformative does not exist. It\'s hight time it does. Perhaps this will bridge the enormous gap between the huge number of students connecting to Judaism on college campuses and the relatively small number engaging in immersive Jewish learning. *OT [Our Thoughts] are episodes in which Chanie and Peretz discuss the previous episode\'s conversation with a guest.
Tue, 03 Dec 2019 - 10min - 26 - Stepping Out of the Herd’s Stampede
The stampede towards a career begins with college graduation, and perhaps even earlier. Andrew Jacobson ’19 stepped out of that rush and dedicated a year to Torah study. What was his calculation? What does he fear about this decision? Why is he so unconventional amongst today’s young adults?
Mon, 18 Nov 2019 - 22min - 25 - Under the Hood of our Podcasts
A view under the hood of the making of a New Conversation with Chanie and Peretz as we conclude our first year and two seasons of podcasting.
Sat, 02 Nov 2019 - 11min - 24 - The SynaGym – Synagogue & Gym; Prayer in a new perspective
Often, for both the frequent and infrequent visitors to the synagogue, it feels more like entering a classroom where you’re expected to follow the instructions of the Prayer Book and Rabbi, than a place of spiritual connection to the Divine. Listen to a new language that transforms the experience from a classroom to a playground.…
Sun, 06 Oct 2019 - 13min - 23 - Commitment; the Power and the Pain
To renew is to be excited about life and ultimately to grow. A prerequisite though is commitment. With its combined power and pain it provides us the ability to bring our whole self forward in ways otherwise not possible. We share our reflections and personal experience on commitment and its impact.
Tue, 24 Sep 2019 - 12min - 22 - Life is in the Ugly
In our desire to grow, and even become more attractive, we easily fall for the enticing assumption that it’s to be achieved by highlighting what seems appealing about ourselves. In fact though Teshuva teaches us that in the parts which we bury and hide is where the power for growth and life exists.
Tue, 17 Sep 2019 - 12min - 21 - Our Restraining for Creating
It’s been two months since we last published a podcast. Though we had a number of episodes prepared for publishing we took an impromptu break as we experienced a personal and professional recalibration. In this conversation we discuss it.
Wed, 04 Sep 2019 - 12min - 20 - Mission ME: Unconventional Tikkun Olam
Judaism is indeed about the mission of Tikkun Olam – and viewing it otherwise comes with consequences – only the Olam is not the conventional one. Listen and share your thoughts at anewconvo.com or Facebook.com/anewconvo. This podcast series was sponsored by Dana ‘14 and Tzvi Simpson. To sponsor future podcasts email chanie@anewconvo.com.
Thu, 04 Jul 2019 - 12min - 19 - TO Buy In or NOT to Buy In, to Judaism?
For adults, adapting Judaism needs to be an informed choice, otherwise the consequences are dire. We explore the reasons to buy in or not to buy in. Current efforts on the part of Judaism’s marketers (i.e. educational and outreach institutions) to make it more appealing are futile. We conclude with offering a new language and…
Thu, 20 Jun 2019 - 12min - 18 - Is It A Pyramid Scheme?
A pyramid begins with an expansive area that peaks at the top in a narrow space. Is Chabad similarly structured with the bottom being open to all, but as one reaches higher it becomes narrower and more exclusive? Listen as we create a new paradigm in understanding our structure and objective.
Thu, 06 Jun 2019 - 10min - 17 - Mincing No Words; Chabad’s Objective & What Sets It Apart
What impact does Chabad at Brandeis seek to have on students? How are they to live differently as a result? How is Chabad’s objective different than Hillel, Maor, JLIC or other campus organizations? Listen as Chanie and Peretz, in their signature style, remove the curtain from this topic.
Fri, 24 May 2019 - 12min - 16 - Students and Giving; Our Responsibility
Recently we renewed our invitation to students to become Shareholders of Chabad at Brandeis. This was done most notably by dedicating a Shabbat Dinner for students who are Shareholders. The response to these efforts has exposed students’ characteristics that as educators we failed to address sooner. Our unquestionable successes would easily provide us with the…
Fri, 10 May 2019 - 12min - 15 - Chabad Rabbis #MeToo
A month ago Rabbi Avremi Zippel son of the Chabad Rabbi in Salt Lake City, Utah, and today himself a young Chabad Rabbi there, publicly shared how he was sexually abused from the age of 8 to 18. His story, published in Utah’s Desert News created tremendous waves, and I am personally moved to speak with him…
