Bracha Bard-Wigdor

Bracha Bard-Wigdor Welcome! Eight years ago, I created Balaboostas.com, a forum to connect and empower Jewish women worldwide. Join us at Balaboostas.com/forum

My goal was (and still is) for knowledge to be the kind of power ⚡️ that everyone has access to! Inspired by the growth of the Balaboostas Forum, this site has been designed to unite and stimulate Jewish women with intellectual discussion and soul expression. As we face the modern era head on, women are often juggling leadership roles and motherhood, whilst embracing all of the qualities that evok

e our strengths and struggles. While we may all come from different backgrounds, we all have something to contribute with our unique stories. Balaboostas Forum is a sisterhood of women who share ideas on marriage, motherhood, and all-things-women. Whether it is a technical question on marital intimacy or the latest baby stroller, the Balaboostas community joins married women of all ages and stages, as well as experienced professionals. When all is said and done, nobody would deny that inspiration and comfort may come from a short anecdote, a child’s quip, or a delicious recipe. With the rich satisfaction that we obtain from sharing tales of soul and body, we feed the mind with stimulating discussion about the world and our perceptions of it. Be it politics, education, health, fertility or marriage, come and join a community of women who have a thought to articulate, a piece of art to display, or an interesting book to schmooze about. Find your sofa, power up your electronic device, and enjoy your visit at Balaboostas.com!

Having s*x when you’re going to be in the same house as other people or family is not an easy skill to master! It’s totally normal if it takes you time to feel comfortable and confident being intimate in “public” spaces, aka when you’re not home or alone❣️

These slides will give you some tools to add to your toolbox — to be more relaxed being intimate anywhere, anytime — of course with healthy boundaries and privacy measures in place! 🧰

I know most of you are knee deep in Pesach-Passover preparations 💪🏻 I hope you’re all managing okay! Reminder to take 10 minutes to eat something nutritious, and read this while you’re at it 🙂

I created most of this post last year, but it was published in white and I’ve since gotten feedback that darker colors are easier on the eyes to read. So here it is again, but with some awesome updates! 🙌🏻 Such as the Kalaliliy which is still available for shipping from . As well, in my stories I will link some of the other products mentioned in this post.

Wishing you all continued strength this week! We got this 🫶🏻

Alright ladies and gents, you may want to grab a cup of coffee or tea, get your , and cozy up on the couch for this one! 🛋️

People are always curious and ask me, “what’s your best tips/marriage advice, Bracha?” As someone who helps people navigate the high and low points of their relationships, these are my thoughts! 💭

I know this is long, hence the suggestion to get tea — because I wanted this to be very real, meaningful, and impactful 😌

Make this practical. Take 1️⃣ slide that you liked or appreciated, and work on it this month. Then again, the next! You can save this and always refer back to it! 🙌🏻

What’s the best or worst advice you ever received?

This is seventeen ✨ I want to take a moment, to bless you all ✨

For those of you who are looking for a partner to share your life with, to find them with ease.

For those of you who are currently dating, to have clarity on making this life defining decision.

For those of you who are struggling in your relationship, to find a way, to find yourselves, and each other again.

For those of you who are seeking more intimacy, to feel seen, held, understood, and loved by one another.

For those of you who are in a toxic/abusive relationship, that you discover your worth, have the courage and safety to leave, and the strength to fight for your survival and success.

For those of you who are fighting for a divorce, to be unchained, unattached, and fully freed by the time we’re at the Pesach Seder.

For those of you who are grieving the loss of a soulmate, may g-d protect your soul and bring you peace and comfort, and may their soul have an Aliyah.

For those of you who are happy, may you always be! Remain grateful, kind, and sensitive. Not everyone around you is as happy as you. You can bless them that they should be, too. Because those people exist, all around you.

Thank you G-d for your infinite wisdom and kindness in creating the concept of a soul mate and life partner 🫶🏻The possibilities of having in-house friendship, trust, loyalty, commitment, compassion, understanding, purpose, support, love and, intimacy — is truly a gift 💕

I pray that everyone in our community can find it, have it, hold it, and cherish it. Amen, amen 💫

If you are tired of seeing the hypocrisy flooding your feed, this is for YOU. For your soul.

No amount of silence, gaslighting, or hatred will erase us. We will still be here, no matter what they do!!!

So instead, I choose to stand loud and proud. To connect and learn from MY people, the Jewish people, and the good non-Jewish people who DO stand with us.

We don’t need to convince the rest of the world our worth. We simply need to remind ourselves — and each other.

THAT is our story 🩵 Am Yisrael Chai!

Sources: Thank you for the statistics and tireless work you do protect us. As well as for your efforts. Thank you for an unbelievably gorgeous and unifying performance this week! Your song “Our Story,” is so befitting this message! 🫂

The Megillah is about of an evil plot that Haman, a wicked man, wanted to annihilate the Jewish people — and failed ❌

We recount how Queen Esther, the heroine that Hashem decided to save the Jewish people through, put her life in danger a number of times to bring us to safety! 👸🏻

The Purim story is a testament of our history! We’ve been here before, and we survived. Just like then, may the evil leaderships of Persia today (Ir@n and all terr@rist proxies) fall like Haman and his sons did! 🫠

Watching *our* son follow along in his very own new Megillah, adhering to the traditions that we’ve been doing for centuries, is the best kind of Jewish revenge! 💪🏻

May Hashem show us, the Jewish people, revealed and open miracles as he did in Shushan! The whole world should, and will soon know Hashems name. Amen 🙌🏻

Wishing you and yours a joyous Holiday!!!
Happy Purim!🎭🎉

I get it that you’re hurting. We’re all hurting. But do you realize you’re causing more pain to those who are hurting the MOST??

Please think about them and just stop 🛑
The families deserve better than this!! 💔

You will know what you need to know when you need to know. Not a second before or after.

Hashem please help us all.
