In this heartfelt and insightful episode, Dr. Bruce Powell, joined by his children, Rebecca and Jonathan, shares powerful lessons on creating a culture of conversation within Jewish families. The Powells reveal practical strategies rooted in Jewish wisdom, like the PAVE method (Parental Actions, Values, Expectations, and Supper). This method is not just a theory, but a practical tool that you can use in your everyday life. Whether you’re raising toddlers, teens, or young adults, this conversation offers timeless guidance for building strong, values-driven family bonds.
Order the new Momentum book The Art and Practice of Living Wondrously, featuring the Powells’ full essay, on Amazon today.
