  Ki Tetzei and Elul: The God of the Breast — Eil Sha-dai and the Field of Return

  Aug 18, 202655 min

  In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved arrives at Parshat Ki Tetzei with a chidush that stops everything: the Hebrew root of sadeh — field — is the same as Shadai. Eil Shadai. The God of the breast. The king in the field, the classic Elul teaching, turns out to be more than a metaphor for accessibility. The field is the place of the nurturing God — the divine who feeds, who sustains, who knows exactly when you are full and says die*, enough. Not abandonment. Deep attunement.* Drawing on the thirteen attributes of mercy, four mitzvot from Ki Tetzei, and the arc from Elul into Rosh Hashana, Yocheved traces what it means to be held by Eil Shadai before standing before Havayah. The womb before the throne. The mother before the king. The milk is already flowing. The field is already receiving. The practice is not feeling it — it’s turning toward what already is.

  Shoftim and Elul: Who Stands at Your Inner Gate? — On Discernment, Surrender, and the Inner Prophet

  Aug 11, 202657 min

  In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters Parshat Shoftim at the threshold of Elul — and finds inside it a map for the inner work of this season. The Torah opens with a deceptively simple command: place judges and officers in all your gates. But Moshe isn’t only talking about city gates. He’s talking about the gates of the inner world — the places where fear enters, where the crowd’s opinion enters, where the past tries to determine the present. Who stands there? How do we discern what to let in and what to release? Drawing on the archetypes of the judge, the tamim, and the prophet — and weaving in a visceral encounter with the Gobi desert — Yocheved traces three movements of Elul preparation. The judge discerns. The whole self surrenders to mystery. And from that surrender, the inner prophet arises — the voice from within, the still knowing, the one we were always meant to listen to. This is a teaching for anyone standing at a threshold — and ready to ask who has been standing at their gate.

  What Fire Reveals — A Teaching for Tisha B’Av and the Nine Days

  Jul 21, 202651 min

  In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters the Nine Days and Tisha B’Av through the element of fire — and asks what fire actually does to us when we’re willing to stay with it. Drawing on Elijah’s breakdown in the wilderness, the burning bush that wouldn’t be consumed, Michael Meade’s three layers of human life, and a stunning teaching from the Rambam’s Tisha B’Av prayer — this episode traces four movements of fire. What is burning. Staying with what burns. What burns away. And what becomes audible in the aftermath. With fire You consumed it. With fire You will rebuild. This is a teaching for anyone moving through the heat of this season — and anyone willing to ask what the fire might be revealing.

  Episode #133

  Devarim: The Long Goodbye — Three Prophets, Three Eichas, One Sacred Question

  Jul 14, 202655 min

  In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters the book of Devarim — the long goodbye — and finds inside one word the full arc of a people, a leader, and a life. Moshe stands at the edge of the Jordan, knowing he will not cross. What does a beloved leader say when there is nothing left to protect? He speaks himself — his own words, his own memory, his own love — for the first time. The stutterer becomes a man of words. And the word he chooses is Eicha. How. Drawing on the Sfat Emet, the Midrash of Eicha Rabbah, and a stunning Breslov teaching, Yocheved traces three prophets who each said eicha at a different moment in the arc of Israel’s story — and a different moment in the arc of every human life. Moshe’s eicha of fullness. Isaiah’s eicha of disillusionment. Jeremiah’s eicha of desolation. And underneath all three — the same letters, the same question: ayeka. Where are you? The question the Divine asked Adam. The question that doesn’t accuse but evokes. The question that draws the Shechina out of hiding. What is the eicha you’re longing to hear? And what might it unlock?

  Episode #132

  Matot-Masei and the Three Weeks: Gestation, Grief, and the Stories We Tell in Between

  Jul 7, 20261 hour

  In this episode of Underneath the Underneath, Yocheved enters the Three Weeks — the 21 days of bein hametzarim — through a surprising teaching from Rebbe Nachman that changes how you see this season entirely. An egg gestates in 21 days. The luz bone — the indestructible bone at the base of the neck — shares this same time signature. And the Baal Shem Tov teaches that the 42 journeys of the desert correspond to the full arc of a human soul, from birth to eternal life. 42 is double 21. Which means grief, as real and sacred as it is, is only half the story. Drawing on Parshat Matot-Masei and weaving in personal threads from her own process, Yocheved explores the vows we make — spoken and unspoken — during the in-between spaces of our lives. The stories we tell about our own formation. The ones that sustain us. And the ones that quietly constrain what’s trying to be born. Something is forming in the dark right now. The question is: what story are you telling about it?
