When Showing Up Changes Everything
Have you ever watched someone crumble under grief and felt utterly helpless, unsure whether your presence even matters? This paralysis-this fear that we'll say the wrong thing or that our comfort won't be enough-keeps us from offering what suffering people need most: simply being there. What if the most profound gift we can give isn't eloquent words or perfect solutions, but the willingness to stand beside someone in their darkest hour? This sacred presence, what Rabbi Sharon Brous calls "the amen effect," represents the transformative power of human connection when we dare to truly see each other. Drawing from nearly two decades leading an innovative Los Angeles Jewish community, Brous offers something increasingly rare in our fractured, isolated world: a roadmap for meaningful connection that bridges ancient wisdom and modern neuroscience, personal story and collective healing.
