Author: Monica Berg and Michael Berg November 10, 2020 Duration: 1:13:35

In this episode of Spiritually Hungry, Monica and Michael delve into the unique power of change to help us reach our potential in life. Whether it’s thrust upon us or we plan for it, change will come – it’s up to us to see it as a tool for transformation and pursue it on a daily basis. Listen to find out how to create true positive change in your life and how doing so brings lasting fulfillment.


In a world that often feels fragmented and fast-paced, many of us are left with a deep, unnamed yearning for more meaningful connection and understanding. Spiritually Hungry is a conversation born from that shared feeling, hosted by authors Monica and Michael Berg. This isn't a lecture, but a dynamic dialogue between partners who bring distinct, deeply researched perspectives to life's universal challenges. Monica, who calls herself a Change Junkie, draws from her international work as a teacher and author, focusing on personal transformation and practical application. Michael, a rabbi and scholar of Aramaic, contributes nearly two decades of writing on Kabbalah, offering the historical and spiritual depth of this ancient wisdom. Together, they tackle listener questions that span relationships, societal pressures, cultural shifts, and the inner work of self-improvement. Each episode feels like sitting with two thoughtful guides who aren't afraid to disagree, laugh, and explore the messy intersections of ancient spiritual principles and contemporary living. You'll hear nuanced discussions that refuse simple answers, instead offering layered insights on how to navigate complexity with more grace, intention, and awareness. The podcast thrives on the genuine chemistry of this husband-and-wife team, making profound concepts accessible and immediately relevant to your daily decisions and long-term growth. It’s for anyone who suspects there’s a richer layer to their experiences and is eager to explore it through a lens that is both timeless and urgently modern.
