Orthodox Relationships

Chained to Marriage

Divorce is seemingly ubiquitous in the U.S. But what happens when divorce is not an option for you in your community? In this episode, we follow Flatbush Girl: a woman on a mission to free women from their unwanted marriages. Her shameless pursuit to upend the systems stacked against Orthodox Jewish women are impressive. But are they sustainable?

Please be advised that this episode contains mentions of domestic abuse that may be difficult for some listeners.
