episode The Soulmate Myth That Destroys Relationships cover

Beskrivelse

What if the person you want is not the person you need? In this episode, Aleeza Ben Shalom and Lori Palatnik explore the spiritual perspective on soulmates, marriage, and the choices that shape who you become with someone else. The conversation moves from the Jewish idea of destined soulmates into the hard realities of attraction, respect, toxic relationships, gray divorce, and why parents may know more than friends when it comes to choosing a spouse. This is about love without the fantasy and marriage without the escape hatch.

episode The Real Reason Money Causes Divorce cover

The Real Reason Money Causes Divorce

You can love someone deeply and still slowly destroy the relationship over money. In this episode, Aleeza Ben Shalom and Rivka Leibowitz get into the silent expectations couples carry into marriage, the emotional weight behind spending and saving, and why so many people confuse financial stability with emotional security. They talk about dating people with money and the control that can come with it, surviving month-to-month, and the panic that hits when life suddenly costs more than you expected. This is the part of relationships nobody wants to admit matters this much… until it does.Aleeza:- IG @aleezabenshalom - FB https://www.facebook.com/aleezabenshalom- YT https://www.youtube.com/@aleezabenshalom- https://marriagemindedmentor.com/Rifka:- IG https://www.instagram.com/livingfinanciallysmarter/- FB https://www.facebook.com/groups/219528557090- YT https://www.youtube.com/@plusfinances- LI https://www.linkedin.com/in/rifkalebowitz/- https://rifkalebowitz.com/Join our community now and receive 24/7 of new & original content from the State of Israel.https://www.iltv.tv

The Church that Became Obsessed with Judaism

What does it mean to finally belong after spending your whole life feeling different? In this episode, Aleeza Ben Shalom chats with Menashe Lopez about the unbelievable chain of events that started with his mother’s curiosity in a Texas library and slowly transformed a Christian church into a community obsessed with Judaism. Menashe opens up about growing up caught between worlds and trying to belong in Jewish spaces that didn’t always know what to do with him, why moving to Israel finally felt like breathing for the first time, and how music became the only language to hold everything he couldn’t say out loud.Aleeza:- IG @aleezabenshalom - FB https://www.facebook.com/aleezabenshalom- YT https://www.youtube.com/@aleezabenshalom- https://marriagemindedmentor.com/Menasheh: - IG @menasheh.lopez - YT https://www.youtube.com/@Nash_lopez- TT https://www.tiktok.com/@nash.lopez- Spotify: Nash LopezJoin our community now and receive 24/7 of new & original content from the State of Israel.https://www.iltv.tv

episode She Rejected Her Husband Twice cover

She Rejected Her Husband Twice

Why do people say they want marriage but date like they’re waiting for something better? Aleeza Ben Shalom sits down with Sarah Pachter, matchmaker, author, and co-host of Israel’s hit dating show Vort, for a conversation about attraction, timing, and why people talk themselves out of relationships that could actually work. From grocery-store matches and matchmaking instincts to rejecting her husband twice before eventually marrying him, Sarah gets honest about chemistry and commitment. This conversation pushes hard against the fantasy version of love and gets real about what it actually takes to build a relationship that lasts.
