Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I’m Alex Segal and today we have Rebbetzin Ruthi Lynn on the show.

Ruthi is a Marriage and Family therapist. For more than 15 years, she has conducted seminars, lectures and online classes for parents.

As a therapist, Ruthi specializes in parenting, teens and relational issues within the family. Her ultimate goal is to help parents have amazing relationships with their kids, to see themselves as leaders to their children and to build the next generation strong, moral and passionate. She is also the mother of 8 kids bli ayin hara so she has a little experience herself in the thick of it.

Ruthi has worked closely with Rebbetzin Sima Spetner, the renowned chinuch expert from Eretz Yisrael, and has become a teacher of her work. She was basically like an apprentice and went around Israel with her for years, eventually even taking over some of her classes. Now, she’s continuing to bring that wisdom to others.

She is running a 10-week seminar based on Rebbetzin Spetner’s teachings this summer and it starts tonight, Monday June 16, via Zoom to anyone around the world. To sign up, contact Rivky Weiss at 216-965-4107.

If you happen to be listening to this once the class is started, you can still reach out and catch up on the recordings that you missed.

In our conversation, Ruthi and I speak about

-how she became so connected with Rebbetzin Spetner and what that relationship looked like at that time

-How to get back in touch with your intuition when it comes to parenting and why it gets lost for so many of us

-How to know when a kid’s behavior is important to respond to or you can let go a little bit more

-How we can bring Hashem consistently back into our parenting

-How Ruthi achieved such a beautiful relationship with her own kids with one of the main things she credits that to

-How to get through hectic and changing summer schedules and any upcoming travel you may be taking

-What a realistic life looks like when you have multiple children of various ages and genders under one roof

…and so much more!

This episode is informative, relatable and just so necessary when it comes to all we’re dealing with consistently as parents. I hope that Ruthi will help you take some of the pressure off and really allow you to have fun and enjoy the summer with your family. Enjoy!
