Ep 213 | A Shockingly Courageous Woman
Dr. Naomi Wolf has been writing left-leaning provocative books and articles since she achieved fame as a feminist leader over thirty years ago. She advised Bill Clinton on his 1996 presidential election campaign, and she advised the Al Gore/Joe Lieberman presidential campaign in 2000. It would seem hard for Susan Lapin and your rabbi to find any common ground with her for a cordial conversation. Most of what she stood for and espoused we considered, and still do, dangerous and destructive drivel but she was always eloquent and coherent. However, we discovered some highly unusual aspects to this gutsy woman and we invited her to chat with us on this show. She graciously accepted and we greatly enjoyed the result. Now you can too. Our best book ever: The Holistic You Integrating Your Family, Finances, Friendships, Faith, and Fitness. Read about it here https://a.co/d/gx9YFF1 Naomi Wolf is no tennis ball floating down the gutter of life. Don’t you be one. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep 211 | Unshackle Your Potential-By Shackling Yourself
Now here’s a paradox. Find the freedom to unleash all your creative potential precisely by limiting your freedom and learning how to use restriction and regulation. Why you resemble a .223 rifle round. Taking a job does rule out all other jobs and marrying someone is ruling out all the other amazing people who might be waiting around the corner. Starting a business does rule out all the other things you could be doing. In today’s show we reveal the solution to the paradox.

Ep 210 | Take a Vaccine For The Shortage Virus Holding You Back
Happy Warriors are not tennis balls floating down the gutter of life but even we can inadvertently catch the contagious and destructive shortage virus. It is spread from person to person and via media, entertainment, and politics. And when you’ve caught it, you will start believing that we live in a world of shortage. You will prostrate yourself at the altar of recycling to prove to yourself that without recycling, we’re doomed because of shortage. You will buy a smaller car than you really want, not because you can’t afford anything else but because you believe we are short of oil and energy. You will keep your summer air conditioner set too high for comfort to save electricity. That is only part of what catching the shortage virus can do to your life. The worst part is that you make less money than you should and can. Fight financial shortage by learning about the Financial Prosperity Collection here: https://www.wehappywarriors.com/financial-prosperity-collection?seg_id=01GD41TEC123FMDH3CT92WHQ9D.12051.1693002435165 Worried about inflation?

Ep 209 | Smash the Obstacle to Your Self-Improvement
We’re all attracted to self-improvement. In some way, right? We want to improve our bank accounts; we want to improve our health by losing weight; we want to improve our conversational ability, our memories, our knowledge, our appearance, and much more. We love self-improvement. But we don’t always know that inner improvement is the gateway to all other improvement. It is a bit like wanting to bring in a gardener, a landscaper, and a tree specialist to improve our yard but keeping the gate locked so none of the workers can enter. Opening the portal to self-improvement is what Mussar is all about and my guest on this show, Ruchi Korval is a specialist in the ancient Jewish practice of Mussar. This is her book https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/soul-construction/ Happy Warriors will like her take on Barbie the movie. Can you improve the world by improving yourself? Must you forgive yourself before forgiving others? Happy Warriors are not tennis balls floating down the gutter of life. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep 208 | Discover If Deep Down You Are A Reality Denier
Two simple but powerful strategies for you to follow in order to be taken more seriously. Do you feel that hormone blockers and radical genital surgery should be inflicted on 16-year-olds? You might just be a Reality Denier. Do you feel that the brazen robbers who ransack hi end clothing stores, jewelry stores, and luxury retailers do so on account of capitalism, racism, sexism, or poverty? You just might be a Reality Denier. Do you feel that governments can spend whatever they like because they can always print more money? You might just be a Reality Denier. Ryan might or might not be a Reality Denier but he is a young man who wrote me explaining why he has chosen to keep women out of his life. Is Ryan going to become a priest? Not even close. Ryan doesn’t like the women he meets on the Internet dating site, Tinder. His alternative is celibacy, and he thinks that is just fine. I answer Ryan on this show. Ryan would find useful life perspectives here. https://rabbidaniellapin.com/product/buried-treasure/ So will you. Canada’s Prime Minister is a Reality Denier. He thinks that families survive divorce. Men do. Women can. Children might but families do not. Ryan thinks that over 30$ of married women cheat. Ryan is wrong. Very wrong. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Ep 206 | Things About Your Father You Never Knew But Should
This important show describes how wise and stable governments do 2 things really well: they maintain the value of the currency and they protect parent-child relationships. The obvious results are strong families, stable society, and widespread affluence. Tyrannical regimes do exactly the opposite. They debase the currency, seriously eroding its value by causing inflation, and they undermine parent-child relationships. The obvious results are fewer people living in families, more dependency on government, more crime, dysfunctional bureaucracies, lowered lifestyles and increased poverty, more mental illness, and a declining society. Why would they do that? To remain in power of course, silly. Surely you knew that. As many as 1 in 4 American adults are estranged from a parent. I explain whether there is more estrangement from fathers or from mothers and why. The most popular tattoo in prison and why. Exactly why boys raised by moms married to dads stay out of jail.

Ep 205 | Much More Than a Soothing Spasm in The Spinal Column
What liberalism liberates you from. Liberalism, progressivism, socialism, communism, all the same, differing only in degree.
