Why do bad things happen to good people?

n this deeply moving episode of Smart Women Talk, Rabbi Cantor Judy Greenfeld joins Katana to explore how adversity shapes purpose.

From personal tragedy to spiritual awakening, Rabbi Cantor Judy shares her journey of resilience, faith, and finding meaning. Discover how ancient prayers, movement, and daily practice can help you reconnect with your soul—and stand in your personal power no matter what you face.

Join Rabbi Cantor Judy and Katana as they discuss:
  • Why bad things happen to good people.
  • How life isn't happening to you - it's happening for you.
  • Why true power is owning your full story.

Rabbi Cantor Judy Greenfeld is a lifelong entrepreneur, published author, and spiritual leader who blends ancient wisdom with modern wellness to guide forward-thinkers on their journey of personal growth. Her path was shaped by profound loss—the tragic death of her father when she was just 16—which sparked a lifelong exploration of healing through somatic dance, dream work, meditation, sound healing, and the mystical teachings of Kabbalah.

Today, as Senior Rabbi and Cantor at Beth Israel in Colleyville, Texas, Judy is committed to creating inclusive, empowering spaces where women of all backgrounds can connect, heal, and explore their unique purpose. Her work is rooted in the belief that adversity can be a powerful teacher—and that when we honor both the body and the soul, we step into our truest selves.
