Adrienne Gold Davis sits down with Momentum CEO Tara Brown to reframe tzedakah not as charity, but as a core expression of Jewish identity, leadership, and purpose.
Together, they unpack why a generation of committed givers often directs that energy elsewhere, and how Jewish mothers are uniquely positioned to change that.
Drawing on personal stories and Jewish wisdom, Tara and Adrienne show how giving, done right, is dignified, purposeful, and transformative for both the giver and the community.
How do we elevate the everyday? Adrienne Gold Davis explores a piece of Jewish wisdom that teaches us: it’s all about uniting body and soul.
What does it truly mean to succeed as a Jewish mother, and what if the definition of success needs a spiritual makeover? In this moving and deeply personal episode, Adrienne Gold Davis sits down with Jessica Berkowitz, Senior Education Specialist at Momentum, to challenge the narrow, often toxic standards of achievement that dominate our homes, schools, and social media feeds.
