021 - Elad Nehorai | Rethinking Judaism Through the Perspective of a Creative

This week we sit down with Elad Nehorai. Elad has spent most of his adult life creating and nurturing communities. From the time he started a small online arts magazine (before such a thing was common) in college, to his efforts as an online marketer for startups, to his viral campaign "I Have A Therapist," to his work with Hevria, a community for creative Jews, and Torah Trumps Hate, a community for progressive orthodox Jews, he cares about nothing more than connecting people who are desperately looking for a community that doesn't exist in the physical world.

After spending over a decade in Hasidic Judaism Elad is reimagining his faith. We invite you to listen in, as we explore his journey as a creative finding a new path in his life thereafter.

In the interview Elad mentioned a book called Leaving the Fold by Marlene Winell which I accidentally confuse with Empty the Pews by Chrissy Stroop. Here are links to both of those books for those that are interested.
