Rabbi Shlomo Katz: Open Hearts, Open Doors

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, September 14, 2026 • Duration 58:01

Rabbi Shlomo Katz spent years living the dream so many musicians chase — packed rooms, songs spreading like wildfire, real success. And he kept coming home from it asking his rabbi the same question: is there something wrong with me? Why doesn't this feel like everything?

In this episode, Rabbi Katz traces his path from a fourteen-year-old who fell in love with the voice of Rabbi Shlomo Carlebach, to a touring musician, to the leader of a growing community in Israel built around one idea: an open heart. He tells the story of how a Carlebach recording, passed hand to hand years after Carlebach's death, led his wife to the very class he happened to be teaching — and how a chance encounter with a man named Jerry (now his close friend) planted the seeds of what would become the Just One Project, born out of gatherings in Chicago.

Along the way, the conversation moves through imposter syndrome on stage, the vulnerability of staying open after being hurt, why he stepped back from music to focus on building community, and what it actually means to hold a Geula-centered vision for Jewish life today. He closes with the three teachings he'd want to leave behind if everything else — the music, the books, all of it — were stripped away.

This is a conversation about chasing meaning past the point where success stops being enough.
