from Notes From a Jewish Newbie With Adina Shoshana Hosted by Meaningful Minute

In this episode, Adina (AKA Adrienna, @nowjewishnanny) opens up about her journey into keeping kosher during her Orthodox Jewish conversion – the struggles, the halachic confusion, and yes… all the mistakes along the way. From her “fake kosher” kitchen to accidentally serving treif cookies, to finally building a truly kosher home, Adina shares the behind-the-scenes reality of learning mitzvot step by step. Listen to the full episode to hear about: - The insecurities she felt about what is kosher and Shabbos laws - Her funniest (and cringiest) kosher mistakes during conversion - Why Hashem used food poisoning to change her life - Going from “dairy out” to fully kosher – and what finally clicked - The deeper meaning of kosher beyond the rules and symbols If you’ve ever wondered what it’s really like to take on kosher from scratch – with all the ups, downs, and spiritual growth in between – this is the episode for you.
