Emmi Polansky: Finding Agency as a Single Mother [Teshuva IV 4/5]

This series is sponsored by Mira and Daniel Stokar, and this episode is sponsored by dailygiving.org.

In this episode of the 18Forty Podcast, we talk to Emmi Polansky, known on social media as @livingemunah, about her journey finding agency as a single mother.

Sometimes, when we talk about teshuva, we’re referring to repentance for our specific sins. Another type of teshuva, as we explore, is a return to God as we celebrate our own worthiness and tzelem Elokim. In this episode we discuss:

  • What is it like to participate in chagim and simchas during the process of divorce?
  • How do we pick up the pieces when our plans for a perfect familial and spiritual life fall apart?
  • How did fitness help improve Emmi ‘s mental and emotional health?
Tune in to hear a conversation about what it means to repeatedly return to God in times of apparent loneliness.

Interview begins at 12:21.
