What happens when a Mexican Sephardi Yeshiva student crosses paths with a well-known Flatbush Ashkenazi girl? In this episode, Yaffa and Rabbi Nisso Palti share their incredible journey of finding each other despite cultural differences, and the unspoken "rules" of dating.
Yaffa Palti is a beloved speaker, educator, and community leader, while her husband, Rabbi Nisso Palti, is a Torah educator and the rabbi of a thriving community and shul in Aventura. Originally from Mexico, Nisso opens up about his upbringing, the challenges he faced, and what ultimately led him to America.
Yaffa shares her personal struggles navigating high school, bouncing between multiple schools, being misunderstood, and even getting expelled. She reflects on the pivotal role of a friend who believed in her—an act of kindness that changed the course of her life.
Now, as parents with children in shidduchim, the Paltis offer their insights on easing anxiety and fear in the matchmaking process. They emphasize the importance of encouraging children to live fully in the present, rather than making them feel that their best years are still ahead.
They also highlight their deep belief that God always has a plan—something they’ve seen unfold in their own lives—and that the greatest gift a parent can give is unconditional love and support for their child in the here and now.
Whether you're navigating the world of dating, a parent guiding a child, or simply love an inspiring story, this episode will challenge the way you think about relationships and destiny.
