My Family’s Reaction to My Conversion

In this heartfelt episode of Notes from a Jewish Newbie, Adina opens up about one of the most common questions she receives: “What does your family think about your conversion to Judaism?” From her mother’s surprising reaction to the bumps along the way, Adina shares stories of support, confusion, growth, and love. 

Adina reflects on the lessons she’s learned from her mom, sister, grandmother, and even her nanny families, revealing how their acceptance and curiosity have shaped her journey. This episode is not just about conversion—it’s about family, faith, humility, and the power of unconditional love.
