  1. Step Forward ‘Super-Dad’. The perinatal role of husband, hero, and helper.

    18. FEB.

    Step Forward ‘Super-Dad’. The perinatal role of husband, hero, and helper.

    This month on Menucha Talks, in honour of Purim, we’ve switched things up. Instead of speaking to the women, we’re speaking directly to the men. Rabbi Halberstadt shares from his own experience of being a husband, a hero, and a helper during the perinatal period, offering insight into the unique and vital role fathers play throughout pregnancy and beyond. With honesty and warmth, he explores what support really looks like, how husbands can step forward with confidence, and why their presence and understanding matter more than they may realise. And don’t let the male speaker put you off — this episode is incredibly validating for women too. Hearing the perinatal journey acknowledged and understood from a husband’s perspective can feel deeply reassuring and empowering. Tune in to Menucha Talks for a refreshing and meaningful conversation that strengthens understanding, connection, and partnership at one of life’s most transformative times.

    Secrets of the ‘Super-Carers'

    Secrets of the ‘Super-Carers’Mrs. Adler, wife of Dr. Yossi Adler, reveals that heroic caregivers also care for themselves In this powerful and often overlooked episode of Menucha Talks, we turn the focus to the carers — the partners, family members, and friends supporting a woman struggling with a perinatal mood disorder. Mrs. Adler shares insight, perspective, and lived wisdom on what it really means to care for someone during such a challenging time. This conversation acknowledges the emotional weight carried by those in supporting roles, highlighting the importance of self-awareness, boundaries, and self-care. Mrs. Adler reminds us that being strong for someone else does not mean ignoring your own needs — and that sustainable care starts with looking after yourself too. Tune in to Menucha Talks for a compassionate and validating discussion for anyone supporting a loved one through perinatal mental health challenges. This is an essential listen for every “super-carer” who gives so much — and deserves support in return.

With warmth, wisdom, and practical guidance, this episode offers tools for communicating clearly, setting healthy boundaries, and preserving harmony while embracing the support of family.
