Shalom! I’ve been listening for a few months now, and I wanted to share a personal experience related to Shiur 495. I’ve worked in the corporate world for 30 years with a yarmulke on my head, and I can’t count how many times people have apologized to me after using expletives. I’ve never said anything to anyone to correct their behavior — but as discussed in the episode, simply behaving with dignity and letting the tzelem elokim in you shine, those around you are impacted even as they may claim to not believe in Hashem.
Yashar koach for all your great work!
