Reena Bloom is an audiologist and mom of 3, who is lives in New Jersey with her husband Jason. Reena is a cancer survivor and survived a rare type of sarcoma in the uterus. Unfortunately, to survive, Reena had to have a hysterectomy. This led to Reena and Jason finding a new way to bring their children into the world.

Today, Reena is very passionate about spreading awareness about her experience with surrogacy.

In this episode, Reena dives deep into this subject and shares how they found her surrogates, how they navigated the halachic challenges, the emotional toll of it all, and more.

If you've ever wanted to know more about surrogacy, especially in the Orthodox Jewish world, this episode is for you.

Enjoy the episode!
