No research, no overthinking—just the kind of real talk I’d give my sister or my best friend if they asked me the same question.

Ch. 25 Sorry, I Don't Touch Men
Today we welcome Hannah Abramowitz to the garden. In this episode, we’re talking all things shomer negiah — but not in the way you think. We're flipping the script and giving it the rebrand it deserves. Because the idea that you don’t have to hug every man who crosses your path? Yeah, that shouldn’t be shocking. Hannah and I dive into what this mitzvah looks like in real life, how we each came to take it on, and what it was like navigating relationships before vs. after setting those boundari...

The ones that seem like coincidence… but aren’t. Ron shares personal stories from his time in the army — moments of fear, courage, uncertainty, and unbelievable clarity — and how throu...
