In this episode, Dr. Aimee Baron sits down with an anonymous Orthodox woman (voice disguised) to explore the intersection of the modern Shidduch (matchmaking) system, prolonged singlehood, and egg freezing.
Through one woman's lived experience, this conversation explores the broader realities that have made egg freezing an increasingly important topic within the Orthodox community. The conversation challenges the common assumptions about why many Orthodox women remain single and offers an honest look at the emotional, practical, and social realities behind prolonged singlehood.
Whether you are single, married, a parent, Rabbi, Shadchan (matchmaker), or simply someone seeking a deeper understanding of today's Orthodox dating landscape, this episode offers an eye-opening perspective on a vital and often misunderstood conversation.
