From Boro Park, To Netflix, to the Chuppah | Hoovee & Shaya Rosenberg | Stories of Hope with Tzipora

Hoovee was no stranger to pain. At just 13 years old, she lost her father. By 16, she had undergone heart surgery, and at 20, she experienced the heartbreak of divorce. Yet, as a woman of remarkable resilience, she has dedicated her life to earning her PsyD in clinical psychology, focusing her research on the causes of divorce within the Orthodox Jewish community.

Shaya, raised in the heart of Boro Park, shares his struggles in school, bouncing between multiple institutions before flying to Israel at 16. Determined to succeed, he independently earned his GED by teaching himself all his English courses from start to finish. He opens up about his unique journey, including being featured as the only Orthodox bachelor on the Jewish Netflix dating show 'The Matchmaker', and the heartbreak of breaking off an engagement.

Together, they share their incredible story of overcoming life’s challenges and finding hope, healing, and ultimately, each other. Don’t miss this inspiring journey of resilience, growth, and a love story that proves happily ever afters are possible.

Whenever I think an episode topped off the previous one, the next one is even better ❤ I can't believe how much hoovee went through and she is so strong, resilient, mature, joyful, and at peace, and like they said she went through all this but that's not "her". Everyone here was so inspiring, thank you tzippora!

[yitzchakenglard]

What an IMPACT! Shaya wow everything you said was full of gems. You practically stole the show. Your message was spot on. The two of you make a perfect pair like gloves. Tzipora, BH you had such a wonderful couple that clearly had so much insight to share. May you all keep on inspiring us and everybody around you.

[RivieRivie]

Hoovee and Shaya have a fantastic communication dynamic. They have a lot of respect and admiration for one another and it is such a great example of how couples SHOULD be supportive of one another. Very enjoyable episode and wishing them tremendous continued success: hatzlacha v'bracha!

P.S. my favorite holiday is Purim.

[vITALEmpress]

Great episode. I love that Hoovee could be so vulnerable at the right time. They both really did the work and it paid off.

[marykoch]

Non Jewish but ❤hearing about these couples and some of the challenges they have overcome. Starting to comprehend some of the vocabulary

[debbyschweighardt]

My favorite Jewish holiday is Sukkos. I love eating amd living in the Sukkah. When my dad was still alive, he and my special needs brother came to eat in our Sukkah. We had a great time. I read my books there, talked on my phone, and even our dog wandered in and out of the sukkah. I miss my dad but we have photos and wonderful memories.

[rachelberkowitz]

The Brachs were my favorite neighbors. Hoovies dad practicing his instrument many nights. Kids running back and forth playing . Seems like yesterday. What a beautiful couple bh. Many many happy years to come.

[BJ-bcsl]

[sheindyjenb]

[malkyisaac]

Sukkot is my favorite holiday ! I look forward to stories of hope every Sunday! Thank you for spreading so much hope!

[RonaKrieger]

Such a lovely couple sharing their story and giving us their advice. So impressed with their individual self awareness, unique connection with each other, and willingness to share their journey of discovering who they are and what they wanted/needed from a spouse in the way in which they approached their dating experience with each other. Wishing them so much Hatzlocha going forward.

[CoupleofBaschs]

[BeeRansky-rgti]

[esfirahati]

Chanukkah is my favorite holiday! My husband's birthday is on Chanukkah. It's a very special time🎉. This is an awesome podcast! Thank you Tziporah !

[RivkaLavian]

My favorite holiday would be Succos. It's such a nice and happy time of year, getting together with family. And this is such an amazing episode! Well said Hoovee and Shaya!!

[SharonLampert]

They both became stronger as they overcome life’s obstacle courses. Kolhakavod!

[davidgeldman]

Wow, what an incredible and inspiring story. Hoovee, knowing the challenges and hardships you’ve faced makes this moment even more special. Your strength and resilience are truly admirable. I can just imagine your father, the most talented saxophone player and musician, looking down from heaven with so much nachas and pride. His music and passion were an inspiration to so many, and it’s clear his legacy lives on through you. I’m so happy for both of you and wish you a bayis ne’eman b’Yisrael!

Chanukah, the festival of light, has always been my favorite holiday because it reminds us of hope and miracles. Your story is a beautiful reflection of that—turning challenges into light.

[rrm]

Hoovee's father was a legendary saxsaphone player.

[miriamsussman]

I love Chanukah because it reminds me that we could light up the world in the middle of all of the darkness in our lives and in the world around us. Love all of these podcasts
