The conversation

You know something has to change, and you aren't moving. Not because you don't have the strength, but because something inside you is afraid. Gili says nobody changes until they change what's going on inside. As long as your surroundings are running your thoughts, nothing really moves. And even when a door closes and it looks like the end, another door is waiting behind it.

The truth

  • In every moment we make three choices without noticing: whether to focus on what we have or on what we lack, on what is within our control or outside it, and on the past, the present or the future.

  • Nobody changes until they change their energy. Change your energy and you change your life.

  • Imagination is the starting point of creation. What you picture and truly believe in will end up taking shape.

  • Avoidance comes from fear, and fear is usually a lie that keeps us from growing through new experience.

  • Behind every door that closes, another door is hidden. The deepest darkness comes just before dawn.


Questions and answers

How do you even start moving when you simply have no strength and you feel completely stuck?

Gili says it all starts with your inner energy. Nobody changes until they change it. As long as your surroundings control your thoughts and your feelings, nothing will change. The moment you change what's happening inside, life changes on its own.

Why is picturing something supposed to help me actually bring it about in real life?

Imagination is the beginning of every act of creation. When you picture something you want, you start believing in it as truth, and any thought you hold long enough already counts as an experience that exists. The longer you hold that picture, the closer it comes to taking shape.

Why am I waiting to feel strong before I move? Do I have to know exactly where I'm going in order to move at all?

No. Gili says that assumption is misleading. You have to move even without strength and even without a defined goal, because standing still is itself the problem. She compares it to water: when it stands still it goes stagnant, and when it flows it stays alive.

How do you keep your head in a good place when things are genuinely hard?

Gili talks about surrendering to whatever comes, good or bad, out of the faith that it all comes from the Creator and is for your good. She admits that believing this is one thing, but living by it when things are truly hard takes courage.

A door has closed in my life and I don't know what now. What do I do?

Gili says don't despair. Behind every door that closes, another door is waiting, exactly the way every house has more than one door. The deepest darkness comes before the light, and the hardship itself carries the seed of your deliverance, if you only believe it.

Gili's original episode description

In this episode, Gili Man Wolner and Tal Eckerling take up the idea that every ending is also a new beginning, and encourage listeners not to fear change or obstacles but to see them as an opportunity.

They stress that life is a journey of learning through movement and action, and that standing still can bring trouble and illness.

The conversation centers on the importance of faith (emunah) and of accepting whatever life brings, and on recognizing that any hardship can turn into deliverance if we know how to accept it with love.

They encourage us to look at difficulties not as obstacles but as steps toward growth and success, and to create your own miracles instead of waiting for them to arrive.

And a few words from Tal:

I want to thank everyone who was part of this incredible ride.

I'm setting out on a new path, and this is my last episode of The Truth Hurts.

And of course, for any question or suggestion, I'm always here for you.

Love, Tal

In each episode, two women sit down for an honest conversation: an Emotional Healer and her client.

We talk about healing and consciousness, faith and science, the body and soul, personal growth, energy, and different approaches to healing. Above all, we face the truth no one says out loud: everything around us is upside down.

  • You want to gain insight and improve your quality of life.
  • You want to make a change.
  • You want a deeper understanding of the laws of the universe.
  • You want to live a healthy life in body and soul.
