<p>In this episode we interview Dr. Deena Zimmerman, MD MPH IBCLC and yoetzet halacha, about nursing and fasting. We discuss what a nursing mother can expect if she fasts, how to prepare for the fast, and when a woman should consult with a halachic expert to decide whether she should fast. </p> <p>Learn more here: https://www.deracheha.org/exemption-from-major-fasts/</p>

Simchat Yom Tov

Welcome to Kol Deracheha, a podcast about women and mitzvot, from deracheha.org, a Yeshivat Har Etzion Initiative. 
Our name comes from the pasuk in Mishlei 3:10, which says "be-chol derachecha da'ehu." "In all your ways, know God." We've changed that to Kol Deracheha, which means "all her ways," and also "the voice of Deracheha."
Our goal is that Kol Deracheha will inspire you wherever you walk on the pathways of Torah.
Season 1 of Kol Deracheha is dedicated in memory of Mrs. Anita Hirsch Silverman, Yehudit Raizel bat Eliezer v'Esther, zichrona livracha.
