In what has now become a staple in so many people’s lives, MyLife: Chassidus Applied addresses questions that many people are afraid to ask and others are afraid to answer. When asked about the sensitive topics he has been addressing, Rabbi Simon Jacobson commented, “I understand that the stakes are high and great care has to be taken when speaking openly, but the silence and lack of clarity on matters plaguing the community can no longer go unaddressed. The stakes of not providing answers are even higher.”
The on-going series has provoked a significant reaction from the community, with thousands of people viewing each live broadcast and hundreds of questions pouring in week after week. At the root of every question and personal challenge tackled by the series is the overarching question: Does Judaism have the answers to my personal dilemmas?
In inimitable “Jacobson-fashion”, the broadcast answers people’s questions in simple, clear language while being heavily sourced. Each episode is jam-packed with eye-opening advice from the Rebbeim, gleaned from uncovering surprising gems in their letters, sichos and maamorim that address our personal issues with disarming relevance. Simultaneously, Rabbi Jacobson is able to crystallize a concept quickly, succinctly, and poignantly for any level of listener.
All episodes are immediately available for viewing in the MLC’s archive and can be downloaded as MP3s for listening on the go.

Live Video part 1:
Video-part 2:
Please realize that a spouse who has lived through abuse, infidelity, addictions, borderline personality, divorce or any other of the horrific experiences that this bitter golus can bring has experienced tests you simply cannot imagine unless you too have “been there” or lived thru it with someone you deeply love. So if you are blessed and have been spared, please refrain from posting these well-meaning but cruel comments.
so the wife is to blame?
and after he betrays her she should blindly trust again?
noone should ever know the pain and devastation that this causes. Sending you a bracha that you always remain this ignorant by never experiencing this. Noone deserves this soul destroying experiences which opens eyes to things noone should experience or know about
BEGINNING of part 2
Husband is half if your soul
When he fails you fail
Of course you have to trust again !
I couldn’t find the answer to this question at what point is it addressed? Can you let me know the start time please
..If there could be some sort of reference as to where in the video each of the questions are addressed so that in the case that someone doesn’t have time to watch the whole thing but wants to hear the answer to a specific question, he is able to do so. Maybe they could write the seconds next to the questions: for example: “how to overcome selfishness” (minute 12:55- 15:20) or at least address the questions in the order that they are listed above. Just some ideas…
