The Jewish Matchmaker Podcast – The Jewish Matchmaker Podcast – Holding Love Through Loss

After unimaginable loss, Rav Doron Perez chose connection over collapse. In this deeply moving episode, Aleeza Ben Shalom speaks with the Rav Doron, the Chair of World Mizrachi and President of WZO, about grief, marriage, and what it means to truly see another person. From how couples survive heartbreak, to why empathy requires letting others grieve differently, to the radical idea that pain can unite rather than divide, this conversation is raw, wise, and unexpectedly hopeful. A powerful reminder that even after October 7, building love, unity, and Jewish future still matters.
