Shemos: When Darkness Scrambles Masculine and Feminine

0:00 Part 1 – Overview of the Parsha
1:09:28 Part 2 – Deep Dive + Commentary

In this episode, I explore why this Parsha is called “Names,” and what it means to hold onto your identity in a place that wants to reshape you. I talk about faith and scarcity, how money, food, and “security” can either strengthen trust in Hashem or feed exile-mindset. I reflect on how exile only has power when we internalize it, and how unity, especially guarding our speech, becomes a spiritual protection.

From there I touch on the confusion of masculine and feminine roles, what it does to the soul, and why returning to our design matters. I end with what felt like the beating heart of this Parsha for me: children, redemption, and the cost of bringing life into a world that feels unsafe, including a personal share I’ve never said out loud before, and what it means to trust prayer even when the process includes detox, discomfort, and waiting.
