216. The Spiritual Parent: See the Light in Your Child

216. The Spiritual Parent: See the Light in Your Child

Author: Monica Berg and Michael Berg June 17, 2025 Duration: 25:22

In this episode of Spiritually Hungry Podcast, we explore the spiritual journey of parenthood as a path to recognizing and nurturing the unique Light within our children—and ourselves. From the idealized dreams of early motherhood to the real-life messiness and growth of each parenting stage, we reflect on the sacred role we play in helping our kids believe in their potential and share it with the world. Because when we see our children’s Light—and help them see it too—we empower them to become the change they were born to create.


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.
