When we lost our spouses, my guest David Kanifogel and I found solace and strength in a widowhood support group. We never imagined that it would become a crucial part of our healing journey, providing a safe space for discussing topics we couldn't share elsewhere. Join us as we dive into our experiences with the Hot Young Widows Club spin-off group and the impact it had on our lives.

David's world was turned upside down when his wife, Hindi, passed away, leaving him to care for their five children. He had to learn to navigate single parenthood, manage the household, and provide emotional support to his grieving kids. We explore how he handled these challenges, as well as how our group helped him process his own emotions and tackle the societal expectations placed upon grieving fathers. 

But life has a way of surprising us, even in the midst of grief. David's decision to take his children on an adventure to Israel ultimately led to a new chapter in their lives—blending families with his partner, Bacheva, and building a new life together. We discuss the joys and challenges of step-parenting, maintaining a connection to our late spouses, and the hope that exists even as we carry our grief with us. This is a conversation that will resonate with anyone who has experienced loss and is looking for support, understanding, and connection.
