About the Show

The conversations
nobody else is having.

The Struggle Podcast is not a self-help show. It's not polished recovery content designed to make you feel better without saying anything real.

Joe brings on rabbis, therapists, coaches, and people in recovery to talk about the actual experience, what works, what doesn't, what families miss, and what communities don't want to say out loud. New episodes drop weekly.

What People Are Saying

The conversations that matter.

"I listened to three episodes before I called Joe. By the time I called, I already trusted him. That's rare."

A mother from Lakewood, NJ

"He says what rabbanim know but don't say. There's real Torah in the honesty."

A listener, Brooklyn

"I sent the episode about family dynamics to my whole extended family. It was the conversation we couldn't have ourselves."
