Self-proclaimed Change Ju**ie, Monica is an author and teacher. Michael is co-director of The Kabbalah Centre Intl., a rabbi and Aramaic scholar with almost 20 books on kabbalah. Together they've shared spiritual wisdom and relationship expertise with students for decades. MICHAEL BERG BIO:
Michael Berg is an author, scholar, rabbi, and spiritual leader. Through his lectures, books, and blog, Mich

ael seeks to inspire students to develop a personal and growing connection to the Light of the Creator. Ultimately, the purpose of his work is to teach people how they can transform and achieve true and lasting fulfillment. As the son of kabbalists Rav and Karen Berg, Michael immersed himself in the wisdom of Kabbalah from the age of 14 and on, waking up almost every night at midnight until 4am to study the teachings with his father. In addition to being a native English and Hebrew speaker, Michael is an expert in ancient Aramaic and, as such, a true kabbalistic scholar. He edited and translated the first ever unabridged 23-volume set of the English Zohar, the ancient Aramaic text that is at the very core of kabbalistic thought—a monumental task, which he began at the age of 18 and finished ten years later. Michael lectures worldwide and is a best-selling author who has developed a global following with books such as Secrets of the Bible, Becoming Like God, Well of Life, The Secret, and The Way. His acclaimed work includes the translation and editing of central kabbalistic texts The Wisdom of Truth, And You Shall Choose Life, and On World Peace—all by Rav Ashlag, founder of The Kabbalah Centre. His books—almost 20 thus far—have been translated across the world into 10 languages. Among them are Secrets of the Zohar, Becoming Like God, Days of Connection, Secrets of the Bible, The Way, The Secret, Well of Life, and What God Meant. In 2007, Michael created the Zohar Project, a grassroots volunteer movement dedicated to bringing the power of the Zohar to every corner of the world. Since then, Zohar Project volunteers have helped to disseminate hundreds of thousands of Zohars to people from all walks of life in all areas of the world that are in need. Michael is also the Creator and Director of Kabbalah.com, the online learning platform of The Kabbalah Centre, which offers kabbalistic wisdom in multiple languages to anyone who wants to learn. Michael brings a great deal of joy to the teachings of Kabbalah, delivering insights and classes that are read and watched by the thousands each week on Kabbalah.com. Michael currently lives in New York with his wife Monica and their four children, David, Joshua, Miriam, and Abigail. Read more at https://kabbalah.com/en/people/michael-berg/

MONICA BERG BIO:
Mother, wife, sister, daughter, teacher, and friend, Monica integrates all that she is into her mission of sharing with others what she’s discovered. Monica is a fresh voice that channels the powerful internal spark of Light living within us all. Authentic and fearless, she reminds us of our extraordinary potential and pushes us onward with compassion and understanding. While informed by her many years of kabbalistic study, Monica also draws heavily on her own personal life experiences. She battled and overcame a debilitating eating disorder at a young age, and as a mother of four children, one of whom has special needs, she has become an outspoken advocate for him and others struggling to find their voice. With her trademark blend of humor, insight, and honesty, she shows individuals how to create a life that feels like it is working, like it makes sense, and most importantly, a life in which they are living and loving as the powerful, fulfilled person they’ve always wanted to be. Her personal endeavors have taught her how the practical wisdom of Kabbalah can bring Light and strength into even the most challenging experiences by changing the one thing we can control, ourselves. Monica Berg, a self-professed Change Ju**ie, shares her combination of wisdom and real-life awareness with talks found compelling to a wide range of men and women at different stages in their lives. She leads people to not only see how they can change (change is the only constant in life), but inspires them to get excited about a lifestyle of change. Monica Berg is the author of Fear Is Not an Option and Rethink Love, and serves as Chief Communications Officer for Kabbalah Centre International. She lives in New York with her husband Michael and their children David, Joshua, Miriam, and Abigail.

Curious to discover how a lost glove 🧤 can reveal a profound lesson in empathy and kindness for readers, young and old?

We're thrilled to share with you that Monica Berg’s newest children’s book, The Tale of the Other Glove, is now available for pre-order!

This uplifting tale follows Monica’s daughter and our young heroine, Abigail, on her discovery that sometimes those who seem the most unlike us, in many ways, aren't so different after all.

This book is written with the intention of awakening readers to see someone struggling as an opportunity to offer understanding and support. This is a tale of a glove, but it's so much more than that. It's about empathy even when it's not the obvious choice, doing the kind thing even when you really don't feel like it, and not accepting that you are powerless. Change always starts with one person. And one by one, we can inspire others to do the same.

We are so excited to share this book with you. To pre-order your copy today, visit https://a.co/d/0bn2jlAt ! Available September 10, 2024 🌟
