    I remember learning that Yudi was very sick and then of his petira. My heart just broke for his wife.
    Chani and Scott, I am so glad that you found each other and chose to share your respective journeys with the world! It made me so happy to learn that you have found happiness again! Mazal tov!

    Wow wow wow. They are very inspiring and speak truth. Being single due to not being married or divorced or widowed in 30s and 40s is extremely difficult in the Orthodox world. There is hope for us all.

    Even though I’m recently married I love listening to this podcast! My husband and met and got married in Yerushalim. I feel like our story is nothing compared to the amazing stories I’ve been privileged to hear on this podcast.

    Very very relatable, the raw pain and frustration of being single, of being put in a labeled box, of being looked at as second hand and of feeling lonely, sometimes hopeless, sometimes giving up
    So nice to hear of happy endings
    May we all see true joy and yeshuos

    What a beautiful and deep podcast!
    I was lucky to have shared many shabbos meals with friends and Yudi in Crown Heights. I remember when you got engaged and married. It brings so much joy to know you have found happiness again... your story imparts hope and strength when it feels impossible to find the true zivug right now. Thank you for helping me continue to hope.
    And thank you for your honesty about your struggles with Hashem.
    Someone once shared that "Hashem has broad shoulders and can carry the feelings you throw at him. He made them, and made you, and he can take it."
    Wishing you both a lifetime of happiness and joy together.

    I was widowed at 27 and then got married way to fast again and it wasn't happy and eventually got divorced. I am now 58 and have been with my current husband for 15yrs now. Life often goes nothing like we thought! I had a son from my first marriage (my husband was the most wonderful guy ever) and my son now has a son named for him! My current husband was widowed also so we really connected when we met since we had both had loving marriages and understood what it meant to lose it and we have no problems talking about our late spouses in a way others may not have understood.

    Chany, you brought me to tears. Growing up in a home where my parents should've been divorced but weren't, I always waited for the shoe to drop and still do... when things go well I'm just waiting for the drop... I'm totally with you and wish that you merit to be able to enjoy countless blessings together with Scott with a full heart, anxiety- free! Thanks for sharing, this episode will stay with me for a long time.

    Unbelievable!!! Chani, your journey is so over whelming. To see the strength and tools around you that Hashem gave you, WOW! Every step in life you were working on from single to married. Each time in a new journey. May this new journey last you forever! Scott kol hakavod for investing in your self and a home. As i say if the property doesn't work out. You can always sell and afford the value of a different one. Believe it or not what really spoke to me was Tzipora in her car. She just grabbed the bull by the horns and gave us her best even with out a studio at hand. That is true talent at work. Thank you! All of you. And may Hashem keep on giving you koach. Because we can truly see that he gave all of you the koach and the tools you needed till now. May all of you have a wonderful amazing year. Till next week stay safe and healthy Yitzchak from Jerusalem.

    i am really enjoying these stories, it is a great service to singles! HOWEVER, i feel like there is this need to promote and agree with every single thing the people who are interviewed say. why is it SO amazing that they had periods of time where they weren't keeping shabbos? i feel like if they would say, so i decided to eat pig for a while, tsipporah would be like "wow! that is so authentic and amazing. good for you! people feel like they can't do that and you are so amazing that you did it. people need to not judge others who eat treif". i feel like there is a way to not judge people and to empathize with their journey without gushing over behavior that is clearly not religious. there is nothing that needs to be glorified about not keeping shabbos because you went through yisurim...you don't need to criticize it either, but you could have been more neutral! if this podcast is geared to an orthodox community, i think that orthodoxy should be valued!.

    What a great couple. I can feel the pain they felt. I both resonate with getting “bottom of the barrel” suggestions in the past and also it rubs me the wrong way to call it that. We are Am Yisrael- A Kehilla Kedosha, and a nation of priests. How dare we be so repulsed by our own. It is Ahavas Chinam. I am guilty of this too. This goes for the people “in the parsha,” the shadchanim, and the in-betweeners like parents or mentors. There are so many people that gatekeep great matches out there for their own agendas, to make sure they’re “Keeping up with the Steins” or to avoid getting side-eyed by non-friends. I have a friend who is divorced too, and many people will not redt shidduchim for her because of it. She is incredible and will make a great wife to someone someday. And if a single wants a house, they should buy it!

    You cannot be angry without a connection. The more angry you are, the stronger the connection.
    if you are intensely angry at God, it shows you are actually very, very close to Him.

      @yitzchakenglard2514 2 місяці тому +5

      It definitely used to be like that. But unfortunately as more people are getting divorced in every community they have learned to change the way they look at things. For example the previous Belzer Rebbe was divorced. His first marriage was VERY toxic. May we be zoche to see everyone open their hearts and minds for every soul that is broken.

    @estherklein1556 2 місяці тому +4

    What a beautiful and heartwarming inspiring story. I do have to say I was bothered by the part about them admitting that their shabbos observance was spotty. I’m ok with that choice- it’s not my business and I’m not judging - BUT when Scott said that when he came home to an empty apartment on shabbos he “couldn’t just read a book “ and Tzippora said -“of course “ - validating his choice to be mechalel shabbos. It’s not ok to break shabbos because you’re lonely and bored and you’re sending a very dangerous and damaging message. This is presented as a “kosher show “ and you have impressionable teens watching. I’m surprised that Nachi was ok with putting this out there. It’s a huge responsibility. That being said - I’m happy they found each other and wish them only the best.
