Send us a text

Meet Raquel Kirszenbaum — international speaker, educator, and author of Stop Hurting, Start Healing. Raquel is a powerful voice in the world of emotional resilience and faith-based healing. Her work is rooted in real life—vulnerability, adversity, and the courage to ask: “What now?” Instead of offering surface solutions, Raquel invites us to transform pain into purpose, and struggle into strength.

In this episode, she shares how healing doesn’t mean pretending everything is fine—it means gathering wisdom, joy, and emunah through the hard stuff. Her story is a reminder that while we can’t always change our circumstances, we can choose how we grow from them.

You can find Raquel’s book, “Stop Hurting, Start Healing” here:
