In this raw, deeply emotional interview, Kayla shares her near-death experience, religious trauma, postpartum depression, and the moment she thought she no longer believed in Judaism. At the same time, Shmuel — a rabbi — reveals what it was like to stay married while watching his wife lose her faith.
Together, they walk us through:
✨ Kayla’s clinical death and what she experienced on “the other side”
✨ How trauma, doubt, and anger at God pushed her to rebuild her relationship with Hashem
✨ The conflicts, fear, and love inside a marriage where two people choose completely different religious paths
✨ Shmuel’s “Red Line System” — the tool that saved their marriage
✨ How they’re raising children with honesty, curiosity, and spiritual autonomy
✨ Why most couples give up too soon — and how to reconnect even when your values change
Their story is messy, human, hilarious, painful, and unbelievably hopeful. From rebuilding trust to reshaping their identities, from navigating Shabbos under one roof to opening their home to struggling teens—this episode is an emotional roller coaster with a soul.
