In today’s episode, Dr. Baruch HaLevi explores one of the oldest yet most overlooked tools for transformation—confidentiality. In an age of constant oversharing, “leaky boundaries,” and broken trust, the ability to hold confidence is rare but essential. Drawing from his years as a rabbi and his work leading men’s peer groups, Dr. B unpacks why confidentiality is foundational for growth, vulnerability, and authentic connection.
You’ll discover how keeping confidence strengthens relationships, why confession and safe spaces are timeless human needs, and how practicing this tool can transform not just peer groups, but marriages, friendships, and communities.
