Welcome to Indie Author Chat, the podcast designed to help you explore the ideas and insights behind today’s most thoughtful nonfiction books. Join host Laura Finch for engaging conversations with independent authors as they share the wisdom and inspiration behind their books—each title carefully curated by Weaving Influence Press.

In this episode, Laura talks with Ronit Ziv-Krieger, editor of The Art and Practice of Living Wondrously. The book was created by Momentum, a global organization engaging 25,000 mothers in 40 countries to foster stronger families and communities. The Art and Practice of Living Wondrously is based on surveys of 10,000 mothers to identify the most meaningful topics about life, family, and health. The book features wisdom from the Jewish tradition, applied to contemporary life, and includes contributions from various experts and storytellers. It aims to foster resilience, combat anti-Semitism, and promote meaningful relationships.

During the episode, you’ll learn:

• About Momentum’s goals to break down feelings of isolation and loneliness by fostering global relationships among mothers.
• How to apply Jewish wisdom to contemporary issues like friendships, parenting, and mental health.
• The importance of finding wonder in everyday life and shifting from survival mode to gratitude.
• The value of maintaining hope and strength in the face of challenges.
• How to combat anti-Semitism by fostering a strong, meaningful Jewish identity.
