Chovas Hatalmidim

How do you rebuke someone without crushing them?

Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David learns the Piaseczner Rebbe’s deep and compassionate approach to giving tochacha (rebuke) —not through guilt or sadness, but by awakening the soul's hidden strengths.

The Rebbe teaches that real mussar begins by helping a child see who they truly are and what they’re capable of. When we say, "You know you're better than this," we’re not just correcting behavior—we're uncovering greatness. Rav Shlomo explores how a shift in tone, intention, and self-awareness can transform conflict into connection and criticism into a catalyst for growth.

This episode is essential listening for parents, educators, and anyone seeking to influence with love rather than fear. A masterclass in soulful rebuke, grounded in the wisdom of Chovas HaTalmidim.
