Episode 22
A Jewish Woman’s Journey from Addiction to Faith (Rea Bochner)
In this deeply moving and raw episode, Matana sits down with writer and founder of Awake Jewish Women, Rea Bochner, for a powerful conversation on addiction, recovery, faith, and awakening. Rea shares her personal journey through food addiction, her 20+ years in 12-step recovery, and how spirituality—not religion—became the anchor that saved her life. Together, they explore the shame around addiction in the Jewish world, the difference between fitting in and belonging, and the power of owning your truth. A must-listen for anyone craving authenticity, connection, and healing.
