My BFF, the Rabbi

Can you be besties with your rabbi? Rabbi Shira and Hanna answer a letter from a listener who was close friends with her rabbi – think double dates, shared childcare, and life milestones – but eventually let down by synagogue leadership. They talk about healthy boundaries, if and when these relationships work, when they get too sticky and how even rabbis are human.
