Speaking Engagements

Thank you so much for coming to speak at Lehrhaus yesterday. It was a pleasure having you in our space and hearing about the work you’ve done to uncover more about women’s prayers.

It was such a pleasure meeting Aliza and having her in our space. Reflecting on her time with us, it was inspiring to hear from someone who has done so much work to uncover and share the stories of Jewish women who have historically been overlooked and unseen.

Dear Aliza,

I want to sincerely thank you for your outstanding presentation and for leading the discussion on “Iconic Jewish Women: From History to Today.”

Your ability to captivate and move the participants was truly remarkable. You skillfully combined in-depth research, human sensitivity, and a charismatic presence, creating moments of inspiration, connection, and meaning that will resonate with everyone for a long time.

The way you gave voice to women from Jewish history and connected their stories to our lives – here and now – was so compelling. The discussion around identity, belonging, and female leadership not only enriched the gathering but also strengthened the sense that we are part of a long and meaningful chain of trailblazing women.

Based on the feedback I received, it’s clear that the participants left feeling empowered and moved inspired.

Thank you for your presence, wisdom, open heart, and your ability to make the gathering an unforgettable experience.

“Aliza was a fantastic speaker and in the short time we heard from her we heard fascinating stories about profoundly influential Jewish women over the last 150 years, She provided great insight into her role as an MK and the work she did to advance Jewish, Arab, and orthodox women in the state of Israel. She also gave an overview of the critically important role women should play in government and the peace process.”
