Rebbitzin Libby Kakon: The Extraordinary Life of a Deaf Rebbetzin

When I first heard about Rebbetzin Libby Kakon, I thought the story would be about a remarkable couple who, despite both being deaf, built a yeshiva for deaf and hearing-impaired students. Then I heard the rest of the story. What I discovered was a woman who refused to let life's challenges define her. Together with her husband, Rabbi Chaim Tzvi Kakon, she helped build a unique yeshiva serving deaf students, raised a family, navigated extraordinary challenges, and continued finding ways to help others.To learn more about Yeshivat Nefesh Dovid or support their work:→ https://www.nefeshdovid.com/✬ SPONSORS OF THE EPISODE ✬► Colel Chabad: Help Israel's NeediestFor over 200 years, Colel Chabad has helped people through some of life's hardest moments.
