Welcome back to another episode of La Befana’s Table. Today Musician, Storyteller, Peacemaker, and Radical Creative, Gabriel Meyer joins me at La Befana’s Table for a conversation on bridging our longing for (w)holiness with playfulness.
Born in Cordoba, Argentina. Son of human rights champion Rabbi Marshall Meyer. Gabriel opens hearts and builds cross-cultural bridges through music, humor, and story celebrating Spirit. He travels the Globe performing his music, facilitates interfaith and multicultural playshops and ceremonies.
He has led rituals, concerts, and workshops with great success for thousands of people around the world (Israel, Europe, North, Central & South America, India, Australia & South Africa) in the past 20 years.
In today’s episode, Gabriel blesses us with two different songs which serve as a jumping point for a conversation that touches on liminal space, sharing our true voice through song, how to simply be present to to the miracle that is life.
