Description

Mrs. Shaindel SimesTeacher and author of The Rolling Rabbi When life throws us punches, we can make a conscious decision: will we bow to them or roll with them? The Simes family chose to roll with them.On that fateful summer day, as Rabbi Simes stood davening minchah, no one could have known that this would be the last time he would stand on his own feet. That evening, a terrible car accident turned his family’s life upside down. With Hashem’s kindness, everyone survived, most with only light injuries – except for Rabbi Simes. The young father and lecturer was severely injured. And life for the Simes family would never be the same.Rabbi and Mrs. Simes rose above their incredible challenges, and for several years, Rabbi Simes became “the Rolling Rabbi.” In his new capacity, he continued to teach and inspire. Unfortunately, he eventually succumbed to his injuries, and Mrs. Simes now carries on his legacy.With this podcast, you will be inspired and awed at how a family is able to embrace life, laugh and lovingly accept extremely challenging circumstances.https://www.chevrahlomdeimishnah.org/product/i-wish-someone-would-have-told-me-a-book-for-teens-who-have-lost-a-parent/

I recently wrote a book called I Wish Someone Would Have Told Me for teens who lost parents. Since its release, I’ve been getting positive feedback from many adults who find it helpful too. Some find it useful because they were children when their parent died; some find it useful in understanding their neighbor or student who is growing up without a parent. All were unanimous that the book was filling an important need: the more I heard, the more it became clear that there is a great need for support for anyone who has suffered a loss. Still, when someone suggested hosting a podcast on this topic, I hesitated. Me? I should host a podcast? After much thought and a little research to see if those who had what to share were on board, I decided to accept the challenge. My goal is to bring you talks with all kinds of people who have all different kinds of stories to tell. Some of our guests lived through tragic losses, while others experienced more “typical” losses. Some guests are professionals and some are in the rabbinic field. But each has a unique story and a unique perspective. It is my hope that listening to these stories will fortify you with the support and connections you need and that they will help you gain understanding and clarity about your struggles and tools to help you become a better you.
