The GOC Podcast GOC — Growth Oriented Chevra — is a weekly conversation about the things that matter: growth, Torah, life, and everything in between. Each week, Rav Burg sits down for an open and meaningful conversation, sharing ideas, stories, and perspectives that challenge us to think a little deeper and keep moving forward. At its heart, GOC is about the people of Mevaseret, the conversations that bring us together, and the belief that we’re all still growing.

Rav Hirschel shares a deeply vulnerable account of the most difficult months of his life. Following his wife's sudden diagnosis and medically induced coma, he found himself making unimaginable decisions in the ICU. This episode is a profound look at holding onto emunah when the stakes are absolute life and death, and what it actually means for a chevra to carry you when you cannot carry yourself. Please continue to daven for a refuah shleimah for Ariella Chava bas Chana Malka.
In this episode, we sit down with therapist and educator Rav Richards to unpack a challenge many face during Elul: the tension between genuine, self-reflective growth and the paralyzing pressure of guilt, shame, and perfectionism. We explore how to move away from an anxious, "all-or-nothing" approach to Teshuva and cultivate a relationship with Hashem grounded in unconditional love and compassion.
To kick things off, we sit down with the Rosh Yeshiva to talk about the story behind the GOC and a struggle we all face: the tension between real, internal growth and just blending in with the crowd. We get into the modern temptation of taking shortcuts, why building genuine character is tough but necessary, and what it actually takes to stay true to yourself.
