    The Jewish Divorce Project - Ep 90: Do You Have a Divorce Disaster Plan?

    Leeron and Noam catch up and talk divorce disaster planning. That is, what you do when a natural catastrophe hits. With the LA wildfires turning our worlds upside down, Leeron and Noam both had to consider what co-parenting looks like when impacted by a natural disaster. Few parenting plans seem to include moments of acts of god. And there are plenty of questions that go along with it: Who gets the kids? Where do you go if you need to evacuate? How do you provide stability to your children amidst the anxiety and chaos? Ultimately, it's how we step up and prioritize safety for everyone in the family that the decisions becomes clear.

    The Jewish Divorce Project- Ep 85: The Ugly Truth About Divorce with Samantha, the Boss

    Leeron and Noam continue the conversation with Samantha Boss, who is, in fact, a boss! But before we get into the ugly truth about divorce with Samantha, Leeron updates us on a big divorce transition that took some time to get to: reclaiming her maiden name. For many, taking back one's maiden name is a major part of the divorce process that is necessary in moving on and coming to know oneself again. And coming to know ourselves again is part of our spiritual journey involved in the High Holidays.
