Strength in Vulnerability

Do you have to close yourself off to be strong? The Kabbalistic tradition teaches us that the opposite is true: Strength and vulnerability are not opposites -- they work together in synergy. Join best-selling author and counselor-to-thousands Rabbi Simon Jacobson for a brief-but-powerful talk on the nature of vulnerability. Discover how healthy parents raise children who are comfortable being vulnerable in appropriate situations and why early childhood is so crucial in the development of the ability to trust.
