Episode 56: Allison Josephs, Founder of Jew in the City




Jewish Money Matters show

Summary: <br> B”H<br> Question for you, Do you see a visibly Jewish looking man, with a kippah, peyot and a beard and assume he’s a Rabbi or a diamond dealer? Or worse, a “rock-throwing-women-subjugating-extremist”? Do you a double take when you find out that your new, smart, put together, confident colleague is a Shabbat oberving, mikvah going, wig wearing Jewish woman. “What!? I thought they weren’t allowed to work!? She’s so normal!” You say.<br>  <br> You’re listening to Jewish Latin Princess, I’m Yael Trusch your host. My guest today is on a mission to break down the stereotypes and misconceptions surrounding Jewish orthodoxy and making vibrant meaningful Orthodoxy known to all people and all Jews. How bad are we at our own P.R.? If most of what we know and assume about Jewish orthodoxy is coming from what we read in the headlines, see in movies and in episodes of Law &amp; Order, then we still have a lot of work to do in this area. Work that Allison Josephs, Founder of <a href="https://jewinthecity.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jew in the City</a> has taken head on for the past 10 years. How did she end up in the path of Orthodoxy and why did she decide to become vocal about the beautiful life she found and re-educate Jews about Orthodoxy? And what about the Jews who grew up Orthodox? What could Allison possibly offer them? These important questions and more answered today by Allison Josephs of <a href="https://jewinthecity.com" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jew in the City</a>. <br> <br> <a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/ALLISON-JOSEPHS.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">DOWNLOAD TRANSCRIPT</a><br> <br> <br> <br> You may also like | Puede que también te guste<a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/chagit-sofiev-leviev/" class="wp_rp_thumbnail"></a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/chagit-sofiev-leviev/" class="wp_rp_title">Episode 88: Chagit Sofiev Leviev, CEO of Leviev USA &amp; Philanthropist</a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/on-my-mind-books-en-mi-mente-libros/" class="wp_rp_thumbnail"></a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/on-my-mind-books-en-mi-mente-libros/" class="wp_rp_title">On my mind: Books || En mi mente: libros</a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/lara-mizel/" class="wp_rp_thumbnail"></a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/lara-mizel/" class="wp_rp_title">Episode 121: Lara Mizel Creator of the Movie “Ohr”</a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/sarah-chana-radcliffe/" class="wp_rp_thumbnail"></a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/sarah-chana-radcliffe/" class="wp_rp_title">Episode 19: Sarah Chana Radcliffe, Parenting Expert</a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/episode-15-abigail-pogrebin-author-of-my-jewish-year/" class="wp_rp_thumbnail"></a><a href="https://jewishlatinprincess.com/episode-15-abigail-pogrebin-author-of-my-jewish-year/" class="wp_rp_title">Episode 15: Abigail Pogrebin, Author of My Jewish Year</a><br> <br> B”H<br> Question for you, Do you see a visibly Jewish looking man, with a kippah, peyot and a beard and assume he’s a Rabbi or a diamond dealer?
