Ariel Gaffney: A Mysterious Woman Stopped My Mother From Aborting Me. Years Later, I Converted to Her Faith.
Show notes
Peter Gaffney was raised Catholic in the UK and was building a career as a semi-professional footballer. Then he lost his contract, moved halfway across the planet, and through the fitness industry started a journey that led him to convert to Judaism. But his story really begins before he was born, when his mother was on her way to have an abortion and a mysterious woman she had never met stopped her and changed her mind. In this conversation, Peter shares how his life came full circle, why he believes he was kept here for a reason, and the mission he now lives by every day.✬ SPONSORS ✬► Wheels To Lease: #1 Leasing CompanyFrom family cars to commercial vehicles, Wheels To Lease has been helping people find the right car since 1989→ CALL/TEXT: 718-871-8715→ EMAIL: inspire@wheelstolease.com→ WEB: https://bit.ly/41lnzYU→ WHATSAPP: https://wa.link/0w46ce► BF Design: Designed for RealityThe architects behind so much of what has been built in Lakewood and in frum communities across the country.

Shoshana Lichtman: She Returned to Judaism. Then Discovered She Wasn't Jewish...

Ten years. Eleven IVF retrievals. Sixteen transfers. Six miscarriages. For a decade the answer was always no, and Tamar and Gidon Ben Tzvi never stopped holding on to each other and to Hashem. This is what waiting really looks like, and what it looks like when the wait finally ends.

Rebetzin Sara Rigler: She Was a Hindu Nun for 15 Years Until a Rav Asked Her Real Name
Show notes
Rebbetzin Sara Yocheved Rigler spent 15 years living in an ashram. She meditated three times a day, taught Vedanta & Hindu philosophy, and served as personal secretary to the guru. She went east searching for God.
Then one conversation with an Orthodox rabbi turned her whole world upside down. 8 months later, she was studying Torah in Jerusalem.
Today she is one of the most widely read Jewish authors alive and a world class Torah teacher. We spoke about those 15 years in the ashram, a life altering (and reincarnation) experience around her fear of having children, and what she found in Judaism that 15 years of Eastern spirituality never gave her.

Yosef Waslow: How Alcohol Addiction Ultimately Led Me to Becoming a Chassid
Show notes
Today, Yosef Waslow is a Chassidish husband and father, but his story is far deeper than becoming frum. Raised by a white Jewish mother and a black Baptist father, Yosef battled with alcoholism, fitting in, searching for identity, and eventually found his way to Torah and family. Yet this conversation isn't really about addiction, race, or even becoming a baal teshuva.
