So you’re thinking about converting to Judaism… but where do you even begin?
Not with Hebrew. Not with halacha. Not even with choosing a synagogue.
Start with your why.
The conversion process can be long, confusing, and deeply emotional—and without a strong anchor, it’s easy to lose your footing. That’s why the very first thing I guide people through in Bayit Builders is reconnecting with the spark that brought them here in the first place.
Your why isn’t just a sweet story. It’s your compass. And when the journey gets tough (and it will), your why reminds you why you keep walking.
If you’re just starting out, or building a Jewish life from scratch, this reel is for you. Founding member registration for Bayit Builders is open now—but only for a few more days.

Thinking about converting to Judaism and not sure where to start? Start with your why.
What’s drawing you in?
When did I first start feeling curious about Judaism?
What values or experiences pull me towards this path?
How do I hope this journey changes me?
What makes you care?
What part of Jewish life whispers to you “this is home” even though you don’t understand why yet?
Your why is more than just a nice story. It’s your anchor.
Because when the process gets confusing or exhausting and it will, your why keeps you going.
This is actually the very first step we explore in Bayit Builders,
my new membership program for people in the process of converting to Judaism or who are building a Jewish life from the ground up.
Founding member registration is open now, but only for a few more days.
Let’s build something real.

I’m Jewish by birth but I’d like you to know I find the conversion process fascinating. “Find your why.” Not only for people wanting to convert, but a great reminder for each of us.
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this—it means a lot to hear. I really believe that “finding your why” isn’t just for people in the conversion process, but for *anyone* building a meaningful Jewish life. Sometimes the reminders we offer to others are exactly the ones we need ourselves.
I’m so glad you’re here and learning alongside us 💙
