Rikki Herbst, LCSW, MSEd joins me in this episode and shares her story regarding her religious journey, sexuality, and more. We have an incredibly thought-provoking conversation about sexuality, identity, and the hidden challenges that many women face in close knit or ultra-orthodox communities. Rikki vulnerably shares her unique journeyâfrom her early struggles to express herself to the complex and transformative experiences that shaped who she is today. In this episode, we explore themes that might challenge our assumptions and expand our understanding of love, empathy, and acceptance.
Rikki opens up about her healing journey, her dissertation topic of exploring the gendered religious experiences of women who leave the orthodox community, and how she discovered her own sexuality and came to terms with it. She sheds light on what it was like to be with a female partner in secret for over a decade while publicly dating men, the burden of carrying secrets, and the liberation she felt when she finally decided to live openly. We also talk about the pressures she faced to âfit in,â the offensive questions she faces, and the freedom sheâs discovered in living authentically.
This conversation is an invitation to listen with an open heart and mind. Itâs not about agreeing or disagreeingâitâs about understanding and cultivating empathy for the diverse ways we each find our path to happiness and wholeness.

This episode features Danielle Jacobs, a talented comedian, actress, singer, and dancer. Danielle shares her honest and raw story of where she comes from, her childhood, and the difficult life experiences that formed who she is today. Very often, we look at people who are more public and assume that we know about their makeup and background because of how they seem- if you look at Danielle, you might assume that she has a perfect life; she's talented, beautiful, and funny. When you hear this episode, you'll hear how much she's been through, including some of the challenges she's had to overcome, including her parent's divorce and then remarrying each other, being forced to hold back from fully expressing herself, rediscovering herself as an adult with a young family and more. You'll be inspired and relate to different things she's been through in your own way, and I hope you can apply some of her valuable life advice to your own life.
