Send us Fan MailWelcome to a new season of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah and Eda! In this time focused on turning inspiration into action during the 49 days from Pesach to Shavuot, we welcome Rabbi Dr. Laibl Wolf. Wolf, a Melbourne-based spiritual teacher blending Chassidus/Kabbalah with psychology, shares his journey from law studies to becoming the first Chabad emissary at the University of Wisconsin in 1969, and later returning to Melbourne at the Rebbe’s directive. He explains the Omer as a yearly “spiral” of spiritual energy for sequential introspection, contemplation, improvement, and change through 49 emotional “shades” of the sefirot, describing how mind guides emotion, how tools can be used by the godly or animal soul, and offering practical examples on balancing chessed and gevurah, managing impulsivity and anger, cultivating positivity (Tracht Gut; Gam Zu Letovah), and Emunah vs. Bitachon, concluding with a guided Modeh Ani meditation.EPISODE SPONSORSYakira Bella Yakira Bella is the go-to for trendy, modest women’s fashion that still feels current—think playful-but-polished pieces, elevated basics, and outfits that actually work for real life (day-to-day, Shabbos, events, everything in between).
