Helping Seekers Move Past Fear
Hey, I'm Tassja. I'm a Jewish convert, cultural commentator, and educator who helps people rethink what they've been taught about faith, scripture, and identity.
I bring Jewish context and honest inquiry to questions many traditions avoid. I explore the theological differences between Judaism and Christianity, Jesus as a historical Jewish figure, Paul's relationship to Torah and scriptural literacy from a Jewish perspective.
My work is for those willing to question what they've always been told. For anyone tired of coercive answers and the requirement of blind faith.
Before this chapter of my life, I lived a very different one.
I spent years in the entertainment industry as a professional makeup artist and on-camera talent. I appeared in Mean Girls, worked on music videos for Drake, Snoop Dogg, Belly, and Hedley, and had clients that included Donald Trump and Keshia Chante. It was a world built on image, performance, and perception. It taught me a lot about identity, what happens when surface replaces substance.
My work grew out of my own journey. I was raised in Christianity and shaped by dualist theology that taught me to fear eternal damnation. I didn't set out to deconstruct my faith. I set out to save myself from Hell.
But the more I studied Jewish history, Torah, and the context that had been stripped from Christian teaching, the clearer it became: I had been taught a story that wasn't the whole story.
My deconstruction was long and painful. Fear is a convincing liar. I wish I'd had access to the kind of content I create now. Someone who could have walked me through the questions I was afraid to ask. That's why I do this work.
Through study, lived experience, and deep engagement with Jewish thought, I ultimately converted to Judaism.
My conversion was an act of teshuvah: a return to truth, responsibility, and ethical monotheism.
Why This Work Matters
Most people inherit beliefs before they ever learn how to examine them.
Research shows that roughly one in three adults has experienced religious trauma at some point, with many suffering from emotional distress, identity disruption, fear, and lasting psychological impact. For many, it shapes not only how they relate to G-d, but how they relate to themselves.
At the same time, antisemitism remains one of the most persistent and misunderstood forms of hatred. In the United States, Jews are targeted in the majority of religion-based hate crimes. Globally, antisemitic harassment spans dozens of countries, affecting a people who make up a fraction of the world’s population.
As a Black, Jewish woman, I stand at the intersection of these experiences. My voice exists where religious trauma, antisemitism, race, and identity meet. That position allows me to name what is often ignored, challenge narratives that oversimplify belief, and offer truth where fear and misinformation thrive. If you’re questioning inherited theology, seeking Jewish context or recovering from fear-based religion, you’re not alone.
