Ever found yourself wishing you had the perfect Jewish teaching in your back pocket—something short, powerful, and relevant—that could illuminate a moment, deepen the experience, or help people feel more rooted in tradition? Too often, opportunities slip by. The program ends with a whimper instead of a flourish, or a beautiful question goes unanswered because the Jewish piece just isn’t at hand. 

This workshop for Jewish professionals will demystify the art of drawing on Torah in ways that feel natural, resonant, and alive. This isn’t about jargon or performance—it’s how you cultivate your own voice as a Jewish leader, no matter your role or Jewish background. You’ll leave with practical techniques, new confidence, and our own go-to teachings ready to share. 

In this workshop, we will: 

• Explore the theory of how to connect contemporary life to ancient tradition. 
• Connect theory to practical takeaways for everyday work and gatherings. 
• Consider a few concrete Jewish Building Blocks to inspire your own Jewish growth. 
• Learn and practice the skills of “The Roadmap of a Vort,” as well as how to find personal resonance in traditional Jewish texts and tradition.
