Women’s Philanthropy, and a member of
the New York Board of Rabbis and the
Board of Rabbis of Greater Philadelphia.

She is also a member of the National
Council of Jewish Women.

Before she became a rabbi, Targan was
a journalist (she had her own column in
the Jewish Exponent for several years), a
writer and owner of her public relations
business, LT Communications. Writing
continues to be an important part of
her spiritual life in the form of services,
poetry, meditations and her memoir.

One of Targan’s main messages in her
“If you have something
that you want to do, go
for it. Listen to the voice
that you have inside of
you.” RABBI LYNNDA TARGAN

TARGAN book is to encourage people to follow
their dreams, no matter what stage of life
they happen to be in.

“If you have something that you want
to do, go for it. Listen to the voice that you
have inside of you, or what we say is the
‘still small voice’ that we hear about in the
Book of Kings.” she said.

“And this is a very good time to listen to
that voice because we’re in house, maybe,
we’re working virtually, maybe, and we
maybe have more time to be contempla-
tive, meditative and consider what our
next steps will be,” she continued.

She also doesn’t want people to judge
themselves or others too harshly.

“Just because you like fashion doesn’t
mean that you’re not smart, that you can’t
be a scholar,” she said. “Not looking like
a rabbi is saying to people, ‘Don’t put me
in a box, don’t judge me by what’s on the
outside, because it’s what’s inside that
matters.” l
