In this Shovavim special, I sat down with marriage coach Aaron Zakowski for a direct and practical conversation about what it really means to be a Jewish husband and father in today’s world.
We talk about:
Why emotional safety matters as much as financial stability
The mistake many men make when they try to “fix” instead of listen
How long work hours affect marriage—and what actually helps
Why your value as a Jewish man does not come from your paycheck
What most chassan classes don’t prepare you for
How marriage changes at different stages of life
Stress, self-esteem, and why men need support too
Creating closeness at home without needing more time in the day
