In this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah and Eda, we welcome Rabbi YY Jacobson to discuss why many people lack inner freedom even in good external conditions, emphasizing that freedom requires disciplined inner work: noticing one’s “Egypt,” pausing before reacting, cultivating curiosity, prayer, support systems, and being truly seen. Jacobson explores destructive vs. holy shame, Tanya’s model of distinguishing animal and divine consciousness, surrendering control to God without surrendering to abuse, and experiencing embodied oneness as redemptive consciousness. He also contrasts revealed and hidden miracles (Pesach vs. Purim), reflects on current events and collective resilience, and highlights softening the heart, authenticity, and non-transactional relationships.

#129: Your Inner Exodus — Breaking Deep Patterns and Finding Freedom with Rabbi YY Jacobson

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/804464/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a>Dr. John Delony on Anxiety, Marriage, and Turning Insight into ActionIn this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah and Eda, we  welcome Dr. John Delony to discuss how lasting change requires action, not just insight. Delony connects his approach to lessons from his father, a homicide detective and hostage negotiator who moved toward crisis, and his mother, who began college at 42 and earned a PhD at 57. He argues anxiety is an internal alarm system and that money, anger, and relationship problems often signal deeper issues beneath surface labels. Delony critiques cultural narratives that prioritize feelings and overload romantic partners amid widespread loneliness, urging couples to build friendship, service, and practical “repair” strategies. He recommends choosing reality through honest inventories, building trusted connections (including “outsourcing” perspective to reliable people), and prioritizing health, sleep, and faith. The episode includes sponsorship messages for Colel Chabad’s Pushka app and Shefa Living’s Mountain View community.

Velvel shares his unconventional journey—from a full-time yeshiva education and Rabbinical ordination to scoring a perfect 180 on the LSAT and stepping into high-stakes litigation—plus how Torah learning shaped his mindset, discipline, and clarity. Chyena opens up about the dignity and joy she finds in being the foundation of the home, and how the right partnership can elevate every area of life. Together, we discuss Shabbos as a “forced gift” of rest, navigating pressure without losing priorities, staying professional with strong boundaries, and why in marriage you’re not meant to argue to win—you’re meant to build a life as one team. What makes this conversation so powerful is that it’s not just about success—it’s about what success is built on. Throughout the episode, Velvel and Chyena show what it looks like to be led by a guiding principle, even when life is demanding. The episode closes with their mantra, “Ein od milvado”—a grounding reminder that everything is in Hashem’s hands. No matter what season you’re in, you’ll walk away with something practical, uplifting, and real.

GUEST BIODevori Nussbaum is a psychotherapist, educator, and retreat leader whose work bridges deep Torah wisdom—especially Tanya—with modern psychology, somatic healing, and nervous system regulation. With training across multiple disciplines (including psychotherapy, nutrition, and holistic healing modalities), Devori is known for translating big spiritual concepts into practical, repeatable tools—how to move from control into connection, how to regulate the body so the mind can lead, and how to live with more wholeness in the middle of real life. She’s the author of To Live With an Open Heart (five years in the making), and the creator of the Spice of Life Retreats—named in honor of Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka—where women experience what Devori teaches: embodied trust, emotional coherence, and a return to joy that feels both grounded and attainable.You can find Devori’s work here: <a href='https://www.devorinussbaum.com/'>https://www.devorinussbaum.com/</a> and follow her on Instagram <a href='https://www.instagram.com/devori_nussbaum/?hl=en'>https://www.instagram.com/devori_nussbaum/?hl=en</a> CHAPTERS 00:00 Highlights01:33 Honoring Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka04:09 Introducing Devori Nussbaum06:40 The Power of Presence and Connection15:16 The Brain-Body Connection19:19 The Role of Breath in Emotional Regulation44:44 Breathing Techniques for Emotional Regulation and Rewiring the Nervous System46:19 Understanding the Comfort Zones And The Fear of Change 55:59 The Cost of Change and Letting Go of Victimhood01:09:COMMUNITY Join the Community!
