Today, the Orthodox Conundrum is releasing a new episode of Intimate Judaism that my Intimate Judaism co-host, Talli Rosenbaum, and I recorded with Yonina Rubinstein, where we explore how parents can approach conversations about sexuality with sensitivity, clarity, and confidence.
How can we talk to kids about sex in a way that’s honest, healthy, and grounded in Jewish values? Yonina offers practical strategies for different ages and stages, explains the importance of modeling a positive attitude toward intimacy, and discusses how halacha and tradition can serve as a guide—not a barrier—to raising sexually healthy children. Whether you’re a parent, educator, or just thinking ahead, this episode offers an essential roadmap for both navigating and redefining “The Talk” in a way that’s both open and deeply rooted in Jewish life.
This episode is being released simultaneously on Intimate Judaism and the Orthodox Conundrum.
