The High Holidays are coming fast.
If you’ve ever found yourself doom-scrolling “Rabbi Google” at 2AM, panicking over what to wear or your lack of Hebrew, or feeling like everyone else has a secret map to Jewish life while you’re piecing scraps together — you’re not alone. I’ve been there. And it’s exactly why I created Bayit Builders.
This isn’t about doing more. It’s about feeling calm, connected, and supported during one of the most meaningful seasons of the Jewish year. Bayit Builders is where conversion candidates, seekers, and anyone building a Jewish life can finally find tools that make sense, workshops that keep you prepared, and a community that actually gets it.
But here’s the thing: enrollment closes tonight, August 31st at 8 PM Eastern. After that, Bayit Builders won’t open again until 2026.
So if you’ve been waiting for a sign, this is it. Scroll down, watch the video, and click the link to join us before the doors close.

Imagine going into the high Holidays feeling calm and connected instead of scrambling.
That’s what my membership Bayit Builders is here for.
And today is the last day you can join until 2026.
Let’s be honest. Trying to build a Jewish life from scratch is overwhelming.
Rabbi Google at 2:00 AM. A stack of half-read books on your nightstand.
Holidays sneaking up on you before you’re ready.
And that constant pressure of wondering ” am I doing this right?”
I know that feeling ’cause I’ve been there myself. And it’s exactly why I built Bayit Builders so that no one else has to go through it the way I did.
Hi, I’m Kochava. I’m a Jewish convert who has been helping people navigate the Jewish conversion process since 2010 through my blog, Building a Jewish Life.com. I converted to Judaism twice. First conservative and then Orthodox. And when I was converting, it usually felt like I was drowning. I had rabbis telling me one thing, books telling me another. Then dozens of voices online telling me a third thing, and usually telling me I was doing it wrong.
I’d sit there at 2:00 AM just doom scrolling,
desperate for answers and support. And the holidays? Forget it. They snuck up on me every single year. Doesn’t help that I am ADHD.
I’d stress about what to cook. The fact that I still couldn’t read Hebrew.
What to wear.
And half the time I just felt like I was failing before I even started.
And maybe you’ve felt that way too. Like you’re constantly playing catch up. Like you’re on the outside looking in. Like everyone else already has a map, and you’re the only one trying to piece it together from scraps. It’s exhausting.
And it makes what should be a joyful, meaningful season feel like a burden instead of a blessing.
Bayit Builders is a membership community designed for people exactly like you: conversion candidates, Jewish seekers, converts,
the disabled. Anyone who is struggling to build a Jewish life.
Inside, you’ll get tools to make the holidays meaningful and manageable,
monthly planning workshops so that you’re always prepared for the month ahead,
and live Q&As that are recorded,
Where you can finally get answers to your questions without judgment.
But more than that, you get a community, people who are walking the same path as you are.
Who understand the overwhelm. Who celebrate your wins.
And who will remind you that you’re not crazy when you’re struggling.
When I opened Bayit Builders this summer for the first time, 41 founding members joined.
And every single one of them renewed because this space is making a difference.
Already over 20 people have joined this round,
and I would love for you to be part of that too.
But here’s the catch. Bayit Builders only opens three times a year.
That way I can focus on the members inside instead of having to market this all the time.
And the door is closed tonight, August 31st, 2025, at 8:00 PM Eastern.
After that, we won’t open again until January 2026.
If you’re tired of piecing a Jewish life together on your own,
this is your chance
to step into a space that will hold you, guide you, and grow with you.
Don’t spend another season scrambling and stressing. You deserve support that is practical, compassionate, and rooted in real Jewish living.
Click the link below in the description to join Bayit Builders today! And if you’re watching this after this time has passed, if you click that same link, you’ll be able to join the wait list to find out when the doors open
again.
I would love to help you start this new year with clarity, confidence, calm, and connection.
Your Jewish journey deserves support and joy,
And that’s exactly what’s waiting for you in Bayit Builders. You don’t have to do this alone anymore.
Let’s take the next step together.
