IDF Life vs. Family Life: How They Balance Both | Avigal & Arky Staiman | Stories of Hope with Tzipora Grodko
We’ve heard countless stories about October 7th—of loss, challenges, miracles, and battles. Yet, one perspective remains untold: how the choice to go into battle profoundly impacts a marriage.Arky Staiman, originally from Baltimore, Maryland, was a paratrooper who later returned to the reserves as part of a unit dedicated to retrieving fallen soldiers. Since his first trip to Israel at 13, he felt deeply connected to the land. Avigail, raised in Teaneck, NJ, also felt Israel calling her heart and left an engineering degree at Johns Hopkins to restart her studies, and build a new life in Israel.In this powerful interview, Arky and Avigail share their extraordinary journey in detail, including living apart for over 300 days while Arky is at war. They open up about navigating the challenges of separation, the struggle to live independently, and the process of reconnecting as a married couple.Throughout this account, Arky emphasizes that a soldier's strength is deeply tied to his wife's support. He shares how the challenges of war are bearable only when a soldier knows his wife is steadfastly behind him.Despite witnessing the unimaginable, Arky has devoted himself to becoming an international beacon of hope, using social media to spread positivity, resilience, and strength through tone of the most difficult periods the Jewish people have ever faced.If you’ve ever struggled to appreciate your spouse, overcome conflicts, or simply cherish what you have in life, this episode will leave a lasting impression you’ll never forget.This episode was brought you in part by:►PZ DealsDownload The PZ Deals App and Never Pay Full Price Againhttps://app.pz.deals/install/soh_____________________________►Transform Your Marriage with Dr. David LiebermanWatch an exclusive online course by Dr. David Lieberman, a renowned psychotherapist, best-selling author, and leading researcher in human behavior and relationships.https://www.shalombayiscourse.com/_____________________________►Pizza BizaDelight your guests with our expansive menu and a culinary experience that exceeds expectations.https://www.pizzabiza.com_____________________________► Raquel Couture: Your destination for exclusive bridal gowns, evening gowns, and ready to wear dresses.
