Shaping your environment | Parsha with the Chief: Ki Teitzei

Environment - physical and human - shapes our actions and worldview. What if you could design it to work for you instead of against you? The key is not to passively accept the environment as we find it, resigned to the status quo. The question we need to ask is this - how do we proactively shape our environment for success. This talk by Chief Rabbi Dr. Warren Goldstein on the Parsha of Ki Teitzei, from the perspective of Pirkei Avot, explores the Torah's wisdom on building protective boundaries around what matters most. From the mitzvah to build a fence around your roof to the deeper principles of creating environments that foster growth and protect against harm. The parsha reveals how Torah approaches environmental design: not just physical safety, but moral, spiritual, and emotional culture, values and context that enable flourishing. Chief Rabbi Dr Warren Goldstein examines how ancient wisdom aligns with modern understanding about context, habit formation, and the power of surroundings to shape character. Key insights: Why building boundaries is a Torah obligation How environment shapes character and choices The connection between physical and spiritual fences What the Rambam teaches about protective structures How to design contexts that promote growth #KiTeitzei #Torah #Boundaries #Environment #JewishWisdom
