"I Never Thought I'd Get Married" | Natalie & Jake Reyhanian | Stories of Hope with Tzipora Grodko

What happens when two people defy the expectations of age, tradition, and dating norms — and find each other anyway? In this deeply honest and moving episode, Natalie and Jake Reyhanian share their journey of navigating the pressure-filled world of dating in Jewish communities. From awkward setups to unspoken stigmas, from age gaps to the power of meeting organically — they open up about the real challenges, personal growth, and the surprising way they finally connected. This conversation goes far beyond just a love story — it’s about breaking down societal judgments, embracing differences, and finding strength in vulnerability. Whether you're dating, married, or supporting others on their journey, this episode is filled with wisdom, hope, and heart.
