Love your show. I live in Johannesburg. I am 80 and English married to a South African for nearly 60 years. I am not Jewish but your show is so lovely such beautiful people ❤

[@myjourney73]

Tziporah you are a phenomenal host , very articulate and insightful, bringing out the real stories from ur guests. May you find yours soon!

[@EstherK-z6y]

From Passaic! I love how every week the episodes have a story with a bit of a different twist. It’s encouraging to hear how many couples go through challenging times during the dating process and are now able to share their stories.

[@raisingwings6951]

I'm from Israel. I'm a life coach, and some of my best clients are people in recovery. They are beautiful souls who are willing to work hard and be real

[@TheZyarok]

What an incredible story! Thank you. I'm watching from New Jersey. I'd like to see just a bit more zoomed-out time, where the couple and Tziporah are visible at the table together. It's nice to see the interaction in the room in a way that it doesn't appear as though they're on Zoom.

[@jodybellon4206]

Watching from South Africa Know Jon and I remember clearly when he met Goldie What a joy to watch this

[@nataliezav8451]

These episodes never seem to fail me! Watch every Sunday from New York! Loved hearing their story this week and all the wonderful tips shared.

[@matiandayeletnadav5324]

From Monsey, NY. I respect you for your courage, insight, brilliant comments, and the way you truly listen to each person.

[@saragluck6920]

I'm from Brooklyn. Married mom of 5 and obsessed with each and every episode

[@chayafordonski]

I loved this episode. Jon shared so openly about his struggles and for those who suffer in silence, this is so helpful. Mental health struggles are everywhere. We need to be more open.

[@yitzchakenglard2514]

Once again thank you for Another inspirational podcast. I wonder if rehab is different for women compared to men. And kol hakavod to this nice couple for sharing. With Hashems help may there story give strength to all those singles out there that needed the chizuk. And we need to remember that when Hashem knows there ready they end up meeting. BH to his magnificent mystery of life and the shiduch world. As they say splitting of the sea was easier for Hashem. And thank you Tzipora for finding these stories and showing off Hashems awesome work.

[@hindaausfresser-f8n]

From Brooklyn ny! These podcasts is what every 29 year olds need to hear thank you so much!

[@Dee-tb4fo]

Watching from South Korea :) Love this channel and all the guest speakers! What an inspiration..

[@chuck62891]

What a great story. We also had a long distance relationship across international borders before we married and lived together. Now I live in Nahariya, Israel. May I say that older couples who are dating again after many years following divorce or the loss of a spouse have a great deal to offer in the way of hope and message.

[@leoracarlsen8178]

Chicago, IL. Your podcast takes away the stigma that we created on girls and takes a way that question mark girls might have finding their zivug. Truly inspirational

[@ivorross596]

I went out with a girl for a couple of weeks. After a weekend break I went home and was ready to meet up again in the view to get engaged Her father advised that she should date for a few more months to be sure . This was 20 years ago she's still single. Very interesting episode and nice good people

[@yitzchakenglard2514]

That's so sad. A friend of mine told me something similar happened to him in Israel. He's back in the states married and the girl he went out with was single for years. She ended up getting married in her mid 30s to a kohen who was divorced. They make a great couple. So we can never know what Hashem is cooking up. But when you see how it all falls into place. It's the most amazing thing to see. G-d rocks and keep on praying that everyone will be able to see it too. May you have a blessed year.
