If this is the person you look up too and inspires you - I suggest you take a deep and moral inventory and look deep into yourself and think why such a low class, low life, selfish loser like this woman is who inspires you
I watches the show and admired her for being so successful in such a tough industry, how she helps her colleague and how she juggles work and family.. I didn't like the bashing of people's way of life and religion. I am not Jewish but although she may have not been happy it doesn't mean anyone not living your current life is a "fundamentalist". She says that her past life was like a prison cause everything was forced on to her, yet she uses the same method of "it has to be my way only and I know best" with her family.
Exactly!! She literally has her kids do it my way or the high way. Shes so demeaning to her son in law especially. When he says he wants kids and she interrupts him and says uh uh uh dont pressure my daughter into having kids WE spoke about this. WE said not until 30. Um hello....having babies is the couples choice. Nothing to do with you. Poor son in law isnt married to batsheva hes married to Julia's rules
@@Mimses-b4e she was always controlling even when she lived in Atlanta and she didn't exactly dress so modestly and everybody liked her why I don't know
Julia, my first time wearing pants was 12 yrs ago, traveling to another state just to walk in freedom. While I have a few old pieces left, I gave six bag-fulls away to gemach. I still love my floor-length jean skirt, which has never gone out of fashion. I'm so proud of you for your fearlessness. Unless someone goes through this, they will never understand. I wish you endless closets full of all the fashion you desire.
As a 5 foot tall person with way too much closet space and high ceilings, I watched this and wondered why she didn’t patent her closet designs and sell that as a system...if they were sold and priced in modular segments to be selected, as needed, I would absolutely consider purchasing her closet system . Also, while she lives in a NY Penthouse with designer clothes, I live in St Louis, Missouri where great size closets are easily available but we usually don't have the NY prices because we don’t need to dress up as often as New Yorkers.
Living large in every way. Good for her. Just wish that could be the case for more people. Reality TV is not so much a reality for most of us. It's not so much the large closet full of designer clothes I want as much as it would be a dream to travel and have the experiences she has had. I guess thru her Netflix show I was able to visit a castle in France.
Several years ago Burberry created quite a negative stir when it was discovered that they burned hundreds of millions of dollars of unsold merchandise because they did not want the wrong people to have access to their Brand. This woman has every right to do what she wants with her life and her billionaire husband's money. But when she said she burned her old clothes that was beyond offensive. She probably had tons of clothes that could have been donated to less fortunate folks even in her old community that could have made good use of them. Real fashion companies are doing everything they can to give back to society, the environment, and reuse used clothes even for insulation materials. Since she seems to be all about branding she should rethink her ethical footprint. That is if she cares.
Her billionaire hubby's money??? You OBVIOUSLY have NO idea what this woman's mission is---to see ALL women be independent and in NO need of a MAN'S money!!! That's why SHE is the CEO of her company!!!
Those in the orthodox community previously asserted Kamala Harris rose to power solely off of her relations to a man.. it’s as if they genuinely don’t believe a woman can accomplish feats based off of her own efforts and merit. Women are deemed impure (that’s why they can’t read the Torah), intellectually disadvantaged as opposed to a man (that’s why they cannot learn religious doctrines that determine every facet of ones life written by guess who? Men exclusively and cover all things from “laws of daily living” to periods), and innately immoral, as “men are predisposed to see, women to show” (second reason as to why they cannot learn religious doctrines). Who determines who can and cannot do anything? A man aka a rabbi.
I would LOVE to be incorrect (even though I have lived in those communities and know their status quo and this isn’t even the start) so if you feel this is a misrepresentation, please prove me wrong.
@@montgomerycamjr Do you know anything about the history of La Perla? Do you know anything about the acquisition of these companies? Do you know anything about any of the backstory here? My comment was about the fashion industry not about this women's religious back story.
This woman is lying about her upbringing. She’s portraying a life she truly didn’t live. I know people who grew up with her and said she had a wonderful life. Also she did not grow up extreme ultra orthodox like she makes out to be. She grew up more modern than that and it’s an huge insult that she is lying. She is portraying the religious Jewish community to be messed up, but in fact many people are plenty happy with their lives and wouldn’t change it for the world.
I agree - I know both worlds hassidic and non hassidic and I am think she is making a lot things up - she was a modern Orthodox Jew - living in luxury and they ride the bicycles and dance in every part of the Jewish community - she made it sound like is the worse but I lived in a Jewish community and there are lots of happy moments and enjoyment.
I don't think you should be calling her experiences a lie based on what others living that lifestyle believe she experienced. She does explain that the people in her community were raised to not question the system. So of course they think she was living a good life. But that life was just not for her and she felt constricted so she had to get out. Dismissing someone's life's experiences like that is not right.
@@heusernamenishta4820 I know people who know her. She didn’t grow up ultra orthodox. She’s being dishonest. Her show is very anti Semitic and it seems she is a self hating Jew on some level.
@@nycitygirl18 maybe she experienced these injustices as an ultra orthodox Jewish woman. Perhaps what those people are calling "liberal practices" are in fact just their perspectives because they themselves live in extreme suppression. Also, Noone can know what goes on behind closed doors. This woman said she was suicidal because of her experiences. It's extremely insensitive of you and those people who think they knew her to downright dismiss her claims altogether. Have you learned nothing from the me too movement? Women everywhere are afraid to speak up about their abuse because people like you are dismissive and judgemental. Stop it.
@@heusernamenishta4820 relax. This woman grew up yeshivish, not ultra orthodox. I grew up the same way as her. She is making things seem worse in the community overall than they actually are. It’s also despicable that she doesn’t want her youngest son to practice what he loves. That’s a horrible parent. Just alone in the second/third episode she goes to stores in monsey where she feels she will be judged for being dressed a certain way. I go in pants and shirt sleeves all the time there and no one ever looks at me or judges me. The show is very clearly portraying the religious community to be horrible and it needs to stop. Also the me too hurt more men than it helped woman. That’s exactly what happened to me and what happened to many other woman I know.
I feel like we need to talk about how exaggerated her story is I’m scarred people who are not Jewish might believe her.. So the story about how woman who don’t dress modestly get abused in hell and shit Is not true maybe someone crazy person told her that but no it’s not a thing in Judaism .. also she made it sound like our religion is some sort of a cult u need to run from..this religion is actually all about excepting and respect it’s actually the most important mitzva “don’t do what u don’t want to be done to u” “and u loved your people/friends/family like it was yourself” .and after that is “respect your parent’s”.(also because they teach u values like this when your a child your more patient and caring for other people from a very young age) Woman also can dress how ever they want and be respected especially in Israel where man are very modern compared to other countries. Also to dress modestly is not to shame a woman, or to not be looked at by man. it’s actually because in the tora woman are holy and god cherish them, and so it’s a hole thing..about keeping them like something precious and rare. And also something about, by not really over care about your outside look and more of tuning inward and evolving more on what’s important. *Also we need to remember their are extreme people in every religion maybe she experienced something like that so I don’t really know* Overall I think she’s an extraordinary woman I just hope she will use her platform to promote positive look on Jewish people.☺️
I live in an ultra orthodox community in Israel and yes her statement is absurd. I do not know who told her that but that is not the way we think at all! We do not even believe in hell.
I have friends here in NY who left their own ultra orthodox communities and while they’re not representative of the entire Jewish community or Judaism as a whole Julia Haarts story is not far off from what friends of mine have shared from their own experiences. There are extremists and fundamentalists among all religions.
@@opalwanderlust I grew up in that kind of community and yes most of what she says is true (I never hear that acid thing though). There are holes in her story but having left that community myself the gist of it is true. It’s just that there are levels of orthodoxy and what she describes is not what necessarily happens in all orthodox communities. The community also has come a long way since I grew up in it.
@@751abigail yes completely agreed that what she describes definitely doesn’t happen among all communities. Lots of differences, layers and unique experiences among Judaism as a whole.
There is no one forcing, chasing, or punishing people who don't keep the Jewish law. The religious Jews practice Judaism because they love God and they made a covenant with God. Judaism also teaches how non-Jews are perfectly fine as long as they respect God's name, live moral lives, establish a just society, etc. There is so much spirituality and depth in the values and teachings of Judaism, way richer than only pursuing money, fame, designer bags, etc. Do any of the mainstream TV shows and movies mention these aspects?
She has the right be who she wants, but leaving out why women dress modestly is for a higher purpose to attain a higher spiritual state. It’s the same thing with going on a diet you have less options for food that you can consume, so you can attain a better physic.
Why is it only women dress modestly? Bc women have been hyper sexualized used in our current patriarchal society. Think about it there no “slutty” clothes for men, only women… shouldn’t it be more spiritual to be naked?
@@lt8753 i agree with Aharon's answer and in would like to add that in the orthodox circles that Julia belonged in men arguably have a stricter dress code in that they are expected to wear a white dress shirt along with dark dress pants dark dress shoes and very often also a dark suit jacket so it there isnt only a dress code for women
@@ratherbenapping10 that’s where ur wrong. it’s actually a really beautiful way of living. Try it, you’d be surprised😇😏 And no ones getting brainwashed relax
Coming from a Jew, absolutely. Doesn’t matter what religion or the level of religion. You can be the ceo of whatever you want and have a closet of the size of Europe. You don’t have to leave your religion because it WASNT FOR YOU, to become this. She exaggerates everything she says. You’re allowed to sing, dance, you have the freedom to do whatever you want as a woman in the Jewish community. We have women who are doctors, judges, lawyers, cops, you name it, we have it. If you left religion because of your marriage and how “restricting” it was then make it about that. Not flip the script and make it about religion. and no. We aren’t taught that we’re going to hell for not being modest.. 😪 we’re taught being GOOD PEOPLE is what keeps us out of it. With morals, kindness, forgiveness, etc. I’m proud of who I am.
Watch Peter santenello video on the real life of a hassidic Jew. You’ll get the real look. Not some show that’s scripted and fabricated. I’m not hassidic I’m middle eastern. We’re very different from each other. But we’re Jews. The same bible and the same holidays. Just different cultures and customs.
Thank you for this. This show is so outrageous and so so not true about orthodox women. I am NYU educated and happily live an orthodox/ Hasidic lifestyle. Nice clothes are part of our culture for Sabbath and all our holidays and just every day wear if you do wish as a women.
As you well know there are different sects of Ultra orthodoxy but we both know this is a thing so stop denying to sugar coat that misogynistic extreme cult called ultra orthodoxy. Im Jewish btw.
@@therealaj5743 I certainly will not stop denying lies. I know the most extreme sects of ultra orthodoxy and I also know the so called liberated feminists so you can't pull the wool over MY eyes.
As an Orthodox Woman I have no idea what she is referring to. Modesty is the crown for women, we wear it as princess wears her clothes with royalty. We do not feel meek and stuck to our man, we work and make a livelihood just like everyone else. We are so proud of who we are and where we come from. I am sorry she did not find the Orthodox community to be as beautiful, loyal, and compassionate like we all do. To all who watched her show don’t believe all you hear and do your own research she lies through her teeth regarding Orthodox Judiasm and Netflix needs to get out of our community. They don’t respect us and who and what we are.
I don’t know who this women is and she would be appalled by how boring and uncool I am and would never be friends with me but she is just an absolute DOLLBABY and inspiring in so many ways. Thank you for the example I’d love to show my little girl. Brave girl respect! 💪🏻
Of course 90% of this it's her billionaire husband who she met while he was married for 25 years with 3 kids. So he gets a divorce because of her. That is where the fairytale starts ...
She gives him no credit! She was sponsored by his money 💰 I wish she was honest about this part 🙋🏻♀️ She didn’t just miraculously become a millionaire!! She had a sugar daddy/ billionaire boyfriend paying her rent!! She had no education or artistic training! Please 😜Tell women this truth, It’s not magical, it’s strategically placed energy on a rich sponsor!
Danoona u r very astute. She was never meek,never subservient. She was vibrant, alive the juice of every party. There had to be some latent demons to bash everything and everyone
the glam is great and all...but i'm starting to think whenever i see so much wealth, someone got squeezed and screwed. someone is on the losing end of all that convenience Mrs. Haart enjoys. I can't drool, like i used to, when i see so much extravagance
And one more thing the Sheitel looks great. When you were a practicing Jew of course you’ll use the wig against Judaism but when it’s to cover your own strangely hair or to be on trend then it’s totally fine. God bless. Love you sister.
She used to wear a “sheytel” which is a wig usually a human hair wig. Look at all of her photos. Her hair is always the same. Same color same hairline same length sake everything. The sheytel she wears is expensive and made of human hair. She still wears it. Kim Zolciak wears wigs. No big deal.
I’m not into fashion or shows about anything about that lifestyle and I never even heard Julia heart before but I just watched her whole unorthodox series on Netflix and this lady is so real and I really respect her for that 💗
The Unorthodox series is inspired by a different woman who left an Orthodox community in NY, but no one chased after her, kidnapped her, or gave her a gun to kill herself like the fictional character Moishe did. A lot of Julia's claims, her show, and the show Unorthodox are not based on the truth.
shoes so tall for short women. It looks very unpleasant, but when the short woman with nice curves and a little help from the slightly high shoes makes them look spectacular
THe Holocaust survivors must be tearing up watching what she said about the Jewish community Iam African but l don't think she needed to shame the religion much I sincerely loved her show so muchhhh but forcing her son to change religion beliefs was too much for me
Isn’t the materialism overtly present in Frum society generally as a coping mechanism to make the best out of the systems of oppression in place? You have diamond earrings, fashion galore, criticism and scrutiny galore, with both men and women aged forty dancing on Tik Tok in so many instances. If you deplore her actions, or that of any other human, don’t repeat them yourself or contribute to that system..
@@meiracohen4907 Materialism is overtly present in 2021 and it doesn’t discriminate. We’re part of the world and we don’t think we’re above it all!!!! But please do not represent Judaism by some ticktockers that is not the Jewish community. The Jewish community is funding for thousands of orphans and poor families it’s hatzala it’s Chaverim it’s bikur Cholim it’s the family structure that we try as much as possible in this crazy world to still keep in tact it’s the siddur it’s the tehillim it’s the hope it’s the love and trust me I’ve been hurt I’ve been around the block but it only hurts you to find the flaws. There is magnificence to yidishkeit and to deny it is to deny yourself a happy life. Just because some Jews get sucked in that doesn’t give anyone the excuse to bash it or go against it. You rise above it. You become the Jew you wish they were!!!! Don’t use it as some laze excuse because your lazy to commit and keep the mitzvos. (Not you, people) Don’t give me the Jews this and the Jews that!!!!! When’s the last time you heard a Jew murdered someone?? When’s the last time a Jew mugged someone?? Yes there are molesters and there are sick people and there are problems but don’t represent Judaism like that!!!!!!!!! It’s sick!!! There are crazy people all over and Jews are not perfect we are trying and we are one family and no one has a family like ours and If you make urself a part and commit to the one who is committed to you you will live a life of ecstasy. I am.
@@meiracohen4907 And one more thing. Whats the oppression???????? That we can’t eat an animal that rolls around in mud and is slaughtered grossly so oppressive we can’t eat pork???? Which part?? I’m frum and I’m not oppressed at all I’m free i fall into gods hands and trust him and i am free. Go to a park watch the Jewish kids play watch the Parents morning to night providing for their families watch a shabbas meal with steak and fish and soup and dessert. Are you nuts???? Oppressed?
Thank you for your response. What you says sounds ethereal on a surface level yet if you delve slightly deeper you see how hatzolah is all male. Women wanted to join, get the same opportunities as full human beings, and were refused by the power structure, of, again, all men. They founded their own, Ezras Nashim, and I am sure you are aware of all the obstacles they face. If you are not, I suggest you look it up.
And, when you say do deny (deprive?) yourself of Judaism is to deny oneself a happy life that just adds proof to the fact many believe they hold supreme authority, infallible, and hold a monopoly on all things good, truth, and morals. That’s simply untrue. I lived there frankly and although there are many things awry systemically, life was miserable in a right wing modern orthodox community where in middle school I had struggles with wanting to live due to the expression and authenticity I was deprived of. This is the experience of many and cannot go unaddressed.
Omgd! 🤦♀️ I’m an Orthodox Jew, should I post some pictures of what I wear on an average day?! She’s being so dramatic “just her hands and face..”! Lmao no one ever commanded us to look ugly and only show our faces. I wear plenty cute things my wardrobe be a ok 👌 By us it’s just the concept of modesty where we shouldn’t put our whole body out there for everyone because it’s something that should be more private and special
@@cassandrafrantz8307 100% every religion has its extremists. But first off, Julia was never ultra orthodox just btw. They were a regular orthodox family similar to mine. And also, I would never invalidate someone’s rough experience. However it’s not fair of her make a whole show bringing up tons of examples so out of context and have the world take everything she says so literally. Also, lots of ppl go through hardships, but don’t blame/confuse that with religion. And btw she’s such a preacher of how everyone should be able to do what they want and yet did you see how she was reacting to her son saying he wants to remain orthodox?? I mean come on that’s so hypocritical! It’s just sad that Netflix turns down movies of Judaism portrayed in beautiful light. They like to get involved only in the negativity.
If what you wear is fashionable, good for you (genuinely) but it is all per the commands of a series of men, where you have no representation or seat at the table of the determination of your lives..
And, even if you agree with the men (rabbis), you don’t make that distinction yourself and even if you disagreed, you have no power to wage, no Gemara learning to base that on. It would be really difficult for a woman to be the equivalent of kanievsky in the same form as kanievsky and speak and lead and that’s not ok. And, girls internalize this, arguing in defense of their subservience, lack of positions of power, and it can be heartbreaking.
@@meiracohen4907 ok I’m not 100% following your train of thought but all I will say is as much as I didn’t learn a lot of Gemara, I got a pretty good education on Judaism and sources for things… We do have guidelines as to what is right and wrong when it comes to modesty. I’m not saying I’m perfect with it but I’m just saying we can show skin we don’t have to cover everything besides our hands and face! We’re supposed to look beautiful but just in a modest way. And maybe we should leave R Chaim Kanievsky out of this?! He’s too holy to bring up under the topic of this show lol
You can tell when she is lying about her upbringing when she pauses, takes a deep breath, and then spins a tale about how supposedly she was raised. And all this to justify her display of tone-deaf and out of touch consumerism during Covid-19. And ET's Lauren Zima's ogling and fan-girl-ing over Julia makes this so cringy!! 😳😳
I love Julia but not her fashion 😐 stripper shoes, super tight short clothes, extremely tacky. I appreciate her wanting to show skin, I love that too but do it with good taste!
A successful women is always named.. A gold digger or liar or fake.. Sad but true.. In love Julia I know how conservative society work... Kuudos to her.. She has reached a place where she can be heard and that's what every woman needs to learn.. They will judge you but hey they can't ignore u now.. U r Julia haart.. Love u
Let's not forget her husband is the money maker. But she won't say it, and she has no time for him. Elite is her husbands company, not here. They are divorcing
I am a little compulsive when it comes to organization of my closet and every designer piece I own is with the corresponding garment bag of the same designer and the hanger from the same designer ( I have a talent for asking them for it) I see a lot of couture in her closet but not organized she had a Chanel dress with a bunch of jackets and the Louis Vuitton dress she just purchased with a Dior hanger I do like her personalized hangers and overall this is nice closet but not as organized as it should be, call me I will organize for you !!!! lol
I watched this show and I really like her and her family. And as a woman I am super proud of everything that she accomplished. I never knew that the Jewish religion was so strict and aggressive. Everybody always talks how bad Islam is, but Islam is not half of this cruel as the community she was in. It saddens me that everybody bash one religion not knowing how beautiful and caring it for women is. Even though there religions who tell you your going straight to hell for wearing pants...
Couldn't agree more. All these years, we've been drilled to believe Islamic soccietes in the middle east etc are some kind of backward, women unfriendly, male dominant type societies. While here, right under our noses women can't even divorce, wear pants, can't have their singing voices heard, can't get the educationthey want from the schools they like..oh And men can divorce you for burning food .. where are all the women's rights activists ??
please don't let her experience with Judaism represent all of Judaism. Much like every religion, there's a huge spectrum of religious observance within Judaism and her experience was with extremism, which is a tiny sect of a huge spectrum. Judaism is a beautiful religion and culture that encompasses a vast range of beliefs, values and standards from the very liberal to the very conservative, just like Islam and just like Christianity. I highly recommend doing a bit of research into the different viewpoints within Judaism before passing judgement.
@@defygravity89 I never judged or thought negative about Judaism before I saw this show. I mean I still don't but I was shocked that she said that that's what the Tora says. And you're gonna go to hell If you do this and that and there's no forgiveness. When I was in school I did an presentation about Judaism and I researched a lot and I thought it is a beautiful religion as all religions. I Just never heard of this kind of extremism
@@defygravity89 i think instead of condemning this kind of "religious observance", you are in fact, providing a sorry excuse. Instead of making a case that it is a no-big-deal because it happens in other religions and that "only" a number of minority groups are practicing such things within the Jewish faith, you should be condemning this behavior and this kind of society in full force. Unfortunately, you are choosing to be part of the problem by trying to downplay it. It's a pity.
@@heusernamenishta4820 nowhere in my response did I validate the behavior of the extremists. Nor did I say it was acceptable. It's horrible. They make me incredibly angry and I hate that they pretend to represent the broader Jewish people but I'm also not here for people making sweeping assumptions and generalizations about Judaism based on one group. Would you allow someone to make generalizations about your culture or religion without speaking up against it? I doubt it. have a nice night.
She says that when she's at the supermarket, she reaches over like a 3 yr old.... did anyone take that quite literally?? I mean she definitely is taller than a 3 yr old. I'm PETITE! So why didn't she just use the word PETITE?? Because she is dramatic and likes to exaggerate! Period. As an orthodox jewish woman I will tell you that she is making so much exaggerations!
This comment seems to be an exaggeration on her statement. I myself am petite and I think she painted a vivid, light hearted and accurate picture of my own experiences. Made me chuckle.
Wow So many straight up lies just to justify this OTT lifestyle. Why couldn’t she just admit this is what she wanted and chase her dreams and not have to throw everyone under the bus. All about the attention and scandalous fame. Sad. And pathetic. And kind of evil.
If you go back in time Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. MOVIE OVER BOARD..HE BUILT HER A CLOSET ON HER YACHT. WAS THE FIRST MOVING CLOSET I'VE EVER SEEN. ❤By the way the remake of over board is nothing compared to the original movie .
So sad, shoes, clothes, wow that really nourishes your soul. You do not have any understanding of Judaism. Frivolous. What a slippery slope. You are an adult and you have free choice, but your children have been denied their heritage. A broken chain.
Nun ja, Netflix vermarktet . Diese selbstdarstellende Doku ist , was man bei uns in Europa sagt, typisch amerikanisch. Mag sein, dass diese Frau, von der ich das erste Mal höre und sehe ( aber die Modebranche ist ohnehin elitär und so oberflächlich, dass es sicher vielen Zuschauern ähnlich geht) , ihr Leben und ihren Erfolg ausbreiten muss- ich empfinde sie als unangenehm laut und übergriffig. Letztendlich :brach sie aus einem extremen Leben aus und wählte das nächste extreme Leben . Ob das positiv zu werten ist, muss man selbst entscheiden, wenn der Blick darauf kritisch genug ist. Man muss nicht, um sich zu positionieren, das Sexualleben der Kinder öffentlich breittreten . Aber da es ja eine sogenannte Doku ist , haben die Kinder sicherlich auch diese Szenen abgesegnet.
Before watching the show I knew you are going to be an inspiration to me and after watching the show, I was so sure that I was right. I love your strength and freeing power. GO GIRL
The religious Jewish community is absolutely wonderful! Are there issues just like there are issues in every other community? Sure. Are there strict parents in every religion and every sect? Sure. But you have to be really stupid to look past the amazing beautiful happy qualities of our community. She’ll come back around. There is nothing better out there. And definitely a closet full of clothes and an occupation thats a boost to the ego can’t replace what it means to be a practicing fulfilled commited to hashem kind of jew. So many non Jews see it and speak about it and look up to our community surely our own will come back and see the light.
Yes! Unlike what most people would assume from other cults or fictional shows like The Handmaid's Tale, etc, there is no one forcing, chasing, or punishing people who don't keep the Jewish law. The religious Jews practice Judaism because they love God and they made a covenant with God. Judaism also teaches how non-Jews are perfectly fine as long as they respect God's name, live moral lives, establish a just society, etc. There is so much spirituality and depth in the values and teachings of Judaism. Do any of the mainstream TV shows and movies mention these aspects?
shes a loser on all fronts..she was never a religious or observant Jewish woman...she was a faker and still is...now she tells stories to justify her BS.....she will have all...and then nothing
@@rachelgrabowiecki4039 how dare you refer to someone you don’t know as a “loser.” the ego you have to have for that is appalling. as for the second part, are you blind? she clearly was an ultra orthodox jew. pictures were shown and evidence of her whole family and others being religious were there, as well as extensive knowledge of ultra orthodox practices and terms. what “bs” are you referring to? she “tells stories” about things that happened to her in her life, just like anyone else. to wish upon someone else that they should “have nothing” is so low and you sound like an awful person. please mind your own business and stop forcing religion onto others.
@@rachelgrabowiecki4039 She married out and a priest conducted the ceremony. She is completely secular and eats non kosher and wants her children to abandon traditional Judaism. it is so sad that she was a Jewish studies teacher at a Jewish day school
She is so full of crap. And this is coming from a person whose whole family is frum. My mother wears a sheital, all my family covers their hair. My husband is from a hasidic background too the last of 8 children. Both of us grew up orthodox and went through an orthodox education our whole lives. Julia Haart is a liar and exaggerater. And FYI, she was pretty modern orthodox not hasidic. Super revolting human.
Just because your experience was different does not make hers illegitimate. Not all Orthodox communities are identical but this definitely is a thing. I know.
So not my experience or my friends in the orthodox Jewish community. So sad that this was how you were treated but you need to really speak to your personal experience and not generalize to every women in the orthodox Jewish community.
If you pay close attention or watch the Netflix series, she actually doesn’t generalize, she is specific about her old community not all of orthodoxy although the apple doesn’t fall too far from the true as an ex-orthodox jew I say this. Regardless, she says Judaism is a beautiful religion in the show and she specifically clarifies its fundamentalism in ALL religions thay she’s against and rightfully so.
Wow 😳 This lady has no idea what is real, or what's coming down the pike. She better find out soon or she will be lost. A lot of you people know just what I'm talking about🤔

She wore such dreary clothes for so long she is making up for it.I do not necessarily admire this woman as she "kinda" slept her way to the top, but you got to admit her tenesity.
Two articles of Maimonides principles of the Jewish faith are the belief in ultimate reward and punishment and the resurrection of the dead. Perforce a Torah observant (Orthodox) Jew firmly believes in the afterlife.!
Hi I’m a Jewish from Israel so from a lot of knowledge I can tell u almost every thing she said was misleading and untrue growing up very religious I was taught that all Jewish people will go to heaven and that god accept us no matter what..
In The Torah it says that every single jew has a place in the world to come. We definitely do Believe in the the afterlife we believe it is actually the true destination and this life is a hallway to get there. We don’t speak like that we don’t talk about hell that way if it ever is discussed it’s to help us steer away from evil and chose well. God only wants the best for us.

I watches the show and admired her for being so successful in such a tough industry, how she helps her colleague and how she juggles work and family.. I didn't like the bashing of people's way of life and religion. I am not Jewish but although she may have not been happy it doesn't mean anyone not living your current life is a "fundamentalist". She says that her past life was like a prison cause everything was forced on to her, yet she uses the same method of "it has to be my way only and I know best" with her family.
i don't blame her for bashing the fundamentalists. and she's not using "the same method" with her family. That's what mothers do.
Exactly!! She literally has her kids do it my way or the high way. Shes so demeaning to her son in law especially. When he says he wants kids and she interrupts him and says uh uh uh dont pressure my daughter into having kids WE spoke about this. WE said not until 30. Um hello....having babies is the couples choice. Nothing to do with you. Poor son in law isnt married to batsheva hes married to Julia's rules
@@dessappy shes super controlling
Only wounded mothers do that
@@Mimses-b4e she was always controlling even when she lived in Atlanta and she didn't exactly dress so modestly and everybody liked her why I don't know
Julia, my first time wearing pants was 12 yrs ago, traveling to another state just to walk in freedom. While I have a few old pieces left, I gave six bag-fulls away to gemach. I still love my floor-length jean skirt, which has never gone out of fashion. I'm so proud of you for your fearlessness. Unless someone goes through this, they will never understand. I wish you endless closets full of all the fashion you desire.
As a 5 foot tall person with way too much closet space and high ceilings, I watched this and wondered why she didn’t patent her closet designs and sell that as a system...if they were sold and priced in modular segments to be selected, as needed, I would absolutely consider purchasing her closet system . Also, while she lives in a NY Penthouse with designer clothes, I live in St Louis, Missouri where great size closets are easily available but we usually don't have the NY prices because we don’t need to dress up as often as New Yorkers.
What's your point lol
Because she used a company to do the actual design and custom type of work. It’s not something that can be marketed to the masses due to cost.
The closet company offers options. They put it together and you “design” it.
can't get enough of Julia, just love her and everything she stands for
Living large in every way. Good for her. Just wish that could be the case for more people. Reality TV is not so much a reality for most of us. It's not so much the large closet full of designer clothes I want as much as it would be a dream to travel and have the experiences she has had. I guess thru her Netflix show I was able to visit a castle in France.
Yes!!!!
That’s what I took away from the show. Bet they rented the castle for a day in order to film and stayed at hotels.
A wealthy person's version of hoarding...
that closet is clean and organized.
i'm sure there's a big mess happening

only closet in the house
Her closet is new age FANTASTIC.
Several years ago Burberry created quite a negative stir when it was discovered that they burned hundreds of millions of dollars of unsold merchandise because they did not want the wrong people to have access to their Brand.
This woman has every right to do what she wants with her life and her billionaire husband's money. But when she said she burned her old clothes that was beyond offensive. She probably had tons of clothes that could have been donated to less fortunate folks even in her old community that could have made good use of them.
Real fashion companies are doing everything they can to give back to society, the environment, and reuse used clothes even for insulation materials.
Since she seems to be all about branding she should rethink her ethical footprint. That is if she cares.
Her billionaire hubby's money??? You OBVIOUSLY have NO idea what this woman's mission is---to see ALL women be independent and in NO need of a MAN'S money!!! That's why SHE is the CEO of her company!!!
Those in the orthodox community previously asserted Kamala Harris rose to power solely off of her relations to a man.. it’s as if they genuinely don’t believe a woman can accomplish feats based off of her own efforts and merit. Women are deemed impure (that’s why they can’t read the Torah), intellectually disadvantaged as opposed to a man (that’s why they cannot learn religious doctrines that determine every facet of ones life written by guess who? Men exclusively and cover all things from “laws of daily living” to periods), and innately immoral, as “men are predisposed to see, women to show” (second reason as to why they cannot learn religious doctrines). Who determines who can and cannot do anything? A man aka a rabbi.
I would LOVE to be incorrect (even though I have lived in those communities and know their status quo and this isn’t even the start) so if you feel this is a misrepresentation, please prove me wrong.
@@montgomerycamjr Do you know anything about the history of La Perla? Do you know anything about the acquisition of these companies? Do you know anything about any of the backstory here? My comment was about the fashion industry not about this women's religious back story.
@@meiracohen4907I did not address religiosity or cultural norms. I was talking about the fashion industry.
This woman is lying about her upbringing. She’s portraying a life she truly didn’t live. I know people who grew up with her and said she had a wonderful life. Also she did not grow up extreme ultra orthodox like she makes out to be. She grew up more modern than that and it’s an huge insult that she is lying. She is portraying the religious Jewish community to be messed up, but in fact many people are plenty happy with their lives and wouldn’t change it for the world.
I agree - I know both worlds hassidic and non hassidic and I am think she is making a lot things up - she was a modern Orthodox Jew - living in luxury and they ride the bicycles and dance in every part of the Jewish community - she made it sound like is the worse but I lived in a Jewish community and there are lots of happy moments and enjoyment.
I don't think you should be calling her experiences a lie based on what others living that lifestyle believe she experienced. She does explain that the people in her community were raised to not question the system. So of course they think she was living a good life. But that life was just not for her and she felt constricted so she had to get out. Dismissing someone's life's experiences like that is not right.
@@heusernamenishta4820 I know people who know her. She didn’t grow up ultra orthodox. She’s being dishonest. Her show is very anti Semitic and it seems she is a self hating Jew on some level.
@@nycitygirl18 maybe she experienced these injustices as an ultra orthodox Jewish woman. Perhaps what those people are calling "liberal practices" are in fact just their perspectives because they themselves live in extreme suppression. Also, Noone can know what goes on behind closed doors. This woman said she was suicidal because of her experiences. It's extremely insensitive of you and those people who think they knew her to downright dismiss her claims altogether. Have you learned nothing from the me too movement? Women everywhere are afraid to speak up about their abuse because people like you are dismissive and judgemental. Stop it.
@@heusernamenishta4820 relax. This woman grew up yeshivish, not ultra orthodox. I grew up the same way as her. She is making things seem worse in the community overall than they actually are. It’s also despicable that she doesn’t want her youngest son to practice what he loves. That’s a horrible parent. Just alone in the second/third episode she goes to stores in monsey where she feels she will be judged for being dressed a certain way. I go in pants and shirt sleeves all the time there and no one ever looks at me or judges me. The show is very clearly portraying the religious community to be horrible and it needs to stop. Also the me too hurt more men than it helped woman. That’s exactly what happened to me and what happened to many other woman I know.
The outfits are outstanding! I can’t wait till we can show off the beautiful clothes!!!
A closet with so much clothes will be overwhelming for me, I love clothes but I like wearing clothes more than once.
Love her. Very humble❤️
Look lil like Demi Moore💁♀️
I feel like we need to talk about how exaggerated her story is I’m scarred people who are not Jewish might believe her..
So the story about how woman who don’t dress modestly get abused in hell and shit Is not true maybe someone crazy person told her that but no it’s not a thing in Judaism .. also she made it sound like our religion is some sort of a cult u need to run from..this religion is actually all about excepting and respect it’s actually the most important mitzva “don’t do what u don’t want to be done to u” “and u loved your people/friends/family like it was yourself” .and after that is “respect your parent’s”.(also because they teach u values like this when your a child your more patient and caring for other people from a very young age)
Woman also can dress how ever they want and be respected especially in Israel where man are very modern compared to other countries.
Also to dress modestly is not to shame a woman, or to not be looked at by man. it’s actually because in the tora woman are holy and god cherish them, and so it’s a hole thing..about keeping them like something precious and rare. And also something about, by not really over care about your outside look and more of tuning inward and evolving more on what’s important.
*Also we need to remember their are extreme people in every religion maybe she experienced something like that so I don’t really know*
Overall I think she’s an extraordinary woman I just hope she will use her platform to promote positive look on Jewish people.☺️
She was raised in an orthodox jewish community which is highly fundamentalist, she's not referring to all jews.
I live in an ultra orthodox community in Israel and yes her statement is absurd. I do not know who told her that but that is not the way we think at all! We do not even believe in hell.
I have friends here in NY who left their own ultra orthodox communities and while they’re not representative of the entire Jewish community or Judaism as a whole Julia Haarts story is not far off from what friends of mine have shared from their own experiences. There are extremists and fundamentalists among all religions.
@@opalwanderlust I grew up in that kind of community and yes most of what she says is true (I never hear that acid thing though). There are holes in her story but having left that community myself the gist of it is true. It’s just that there are levels of orthodoxy and what she describes is not what necessarily happens in all orthodox communities. The community also has come a long way since I grew up in it.
@@751abigail yes completely agreed that what she describes definitely doesn’t happen among all communities. Lots of differences, layers and unique experiences among Judaism as a whole.
There is no one forcing, chasing, or punishing people who don't keep the Jewish law. The religious Jews practice Judaism because they love God and they made a covenant with God. Judaism also teaches how non-Jews are perfectly fine as long as they respect God's name, live moral lives, establish a just society, etc. There is so much spirituality and depth in the values and teachings of Judaism, way richer than only pursuing money, fame, designer bags, etc. Do any of the mainstream TV shows and movies mention these aspects?
Its much more nuanced than that.
She has the right be who she wants, but leaving out why women dress modestly is for a higher purpose to attain a higher spiritual state. It’s the same thing with going on a diet you have less options for food that you can consume, so you can attain a better physic.
Why is it only women dress modestly? Bc women have been hyper sexualized used in our current patriarchal society. Think about it there no “slutty” clothes for men, only women… shouldn’t it be more spiritual to be naked?
@@lt8753 Great question!
According to the Jewish law men also have a dress code as well, so on both genders their is guide how to dress modestly.
Men invent stories to justify women opression
@@lt8753
i agree with Aharon's answer and in would like to add that in the orthodox circles that Julia belonged in men arguably have a stricter dress code
in that they are expected to wear a white dress shirt along with dark dress pants dark dress shoes and very often also a dark suit jacket
so it there isnt only a dress code for women
@@ratherbenapping10 that’s where ur wrong. it’s actually a really beautiful way of living. Try it, you’d be surprised😇😏 And no ones getting brainwashed relax
Wow! I really enjoyed this closet tour, not just the tour but their vibe! 💕
Jewish women love wearing expensive high quality clothing. Just in a modest way. They're not as oppressed as Julia claims.
Coming from a Jew, absolutely. Doesn’t matter what religion or the level of religion. You can be the ceo of whatever you want and have a closet of the size of Europe. You don’t have to leave your religion because it WASNT FOR YOU, to become this. She exaggerates everything she says. You’re allowed to sing, dance, you have the freedom to do whatever you want as a woman in the Jewish community. We have women who are doctors, judges, lawyers, cops, you name it, we have it. If you left religion because of your marriage and how “restricting” it was then make it about that. Not flip the script and make it about religion. and no. We aren’t taught that we’re going to hell for not being modest.. 😪 we’re taught being GOOD PEOPLE is what keeps us out of it. With morals, kindness, forgiveness, etc. I’m proud of who I am.
Watch Peter santenello video on the real life of a hassidic Jew. You’ll get the real look. Not some show that’s scripted and fabricated. I’m not hassidic I’m middle eastern. We’re very different from each other. But we’re Jews. The same bible and the same holidays. Just different cultures and customs.
Yeah, the way she describes hell seems from a Christian point of view, not Jewish. Thank you for standing up for your religion, race and culture 💙
Thank you for this. This show is so outrageous and so so not true about orthodox women. I am NYU educated and happily live an orthodox/ Hasidic lifestyle. Nice clothes are part of our culture for Sabbath and all our holidays and just every day wear if you do wish as a women.
Just for the record. I was brought up ultra orthodox and nobody taught me the kind of things Julia was taught _ isn't that strange?
Same. She just wants to justify her betrayal of her religion. Biggest loser!
@@nechamascher7199 I totally agree: all this for shoesc, money and minute rice fame… very sad
Same here! All this for clout…
As you well know there are different sects of Ultra orthodoxy but we both know this is a thing so stop denying to sugar coat that misogynistic extreme cult called ultra orthodoxy. Im Jewish btw.
@@therealaj5743 I certainly will not stop denying lies. I know the most extreme sects of ultra orthodoxy and I also know the so called liberated feminists so you can't pull the wool over MY eyes.
As an Orthodox Woman I have no idea what she is referring to. Modesty is the crown for women, we wear it as princess wears her clothes with royalty. We do not feel meek and stuck to our man, we work and make a livelihood just like everyone else. We are so proud of who we are and where we come from. I am sorry she did not find the Orthodox community to be as beautiful, loyal, and compassionate like we all do. To all who watched her show don’t believe all you hear and do your own research she lies through her teeth regarding Orthodox Judiasm and Netflix needs to get out of our community. They don’t respect us and who and what we are.
And why are you still wearing your sheitle (wig)??
True!
I don’t know who this women is and she would be appalled by how boring and uncool I am and would never be friends with me but she is just an absolute DOLLBABY and inspiring in so many ways. Thank you for the example I’d love to show my little girl. Brave girl respect! 💪🏻
So you want to teach your little girl to be dishonest and materialistic? I pity her!
What an amazing idea
My kind of closet ! I Love Her ! So strong ! And Beautiful ! When God vision for your life ! ❤️💗💜
Of course 90% of this it's her billionaire husband who she met while he was married for 25 years with 3 kids. So he gets a divorce because of her. That is where the fairytale starts ...
😳😳😳 Is she the reason why the Italian guy got divorced? Is she a home wrecker? 🥺🥺🥺. I feel so naive 😂😂😂
If the man left his wife after 25 years for her, he wasn’t happy. He can do as he wants, people get divorced, we’re not in the 50s who cares.
And, they they are getting a divorce 😅🥴
She gives him no credit! She was sponsored by his money 💰
I wish she was honest about this part 🙋🏻♀️
She didn’t just miraculously become a millionaire!! She had a sugar daddy/ billionaire boyfriend paying her rent!!
She had no education or artistic training!
Please 😜Tell women this truth,

@@nannybee9387 correct 🥳
Unbelievable what she was taught wow. Talk about walk a mile on my shoes!

the glam is great and all...but i'm starting to think whenever i see so much wealth,
someone got squeezed and screwed.
someone is on the losing end of all that convenience Mrs. Haart enjoys.
I can't drool, like i used to, when i see so much extravagance
Im obsessed with Julia!!
Incredible closet, incredible journey 👏 ❤
This is the best interview I’ve ever seen in my life time
I have those! Gucci’s!
It must b nice to b rich and have that closet 😍
Beautiful and inspiring lady ❤️
And one more thing the Sheitel looks great. When you were a practicing Jew of course you’ll use the wig against Judaism but when it’s to cover your own strangely hair or to be on trend then it’s totally fine. God bless. Love you sister.
She’s definitely wearing a wig in her tv show and here.
Wait I’m curious how do we know it’s a wig
She used to wear a “sheytel” which is a wig usually a human hair wig. Look at all of her photos. Her hair is always the same. Same color same hairline same length sake everything. The sheytel she wears is expensive and made of human hair. She still wears it. Kim Zolciak wears wigs. No big deal.
The difference is she can now wear or not wear her wig whenever she wants, up to her and not an obligation or expectation.
I’m not into fashion or shows about anything about that lifestyle and I never even heard Julia heart before but I just watched her whole unorthodox series on Netflix and this lady is so real and I really respect her for that 💗
The Unorthodox series is inspired by a different woman who left an Orthodox community in NY, but no one chased after her, kidnapped her, or gave her a gun to kill herself like the fictional character Moishe did. A lot of Julia's claims, her show, and the show Unorthodox are not based on the truth.
shoes so tall for short women. It looks very unpleasant, but when the short woman with nice curves and a little help from the slightly high shoes makes them look spectacular
THe Holocaust survivors must be tearing up watching what she said about the Jewish community
Iam African but l don't think she needed to shame the religion much
I sincerely loved her show so muchhhh but forcing her son to change religion beliefs was too much for me
Right cuz filling ur life with Materialism and lyeing about a community is gunna get you very far in this life and the next. Whatever works.
Isn’t the materialism overtly present in Frum society generally as a coping mechanism to make the best out of the systems of oppression in place? You have diamond earrings, fashion galore, criticism and scrutiny galore, with both men and women aged forty dancing on Tik Tok in so many instances. If you deplore her actions, or that of any other human, don’t repeat them yourself or contribute to that system..
@@meiracohen4907 Materialism is overtly present in 2021 and it doesn’t discriminate. We’re part of the world and we don’t think we’re above it all!!!! But please do not represent Judaism by some ticktockers that is not the Jewish community. The Jewish community is funding for thousands of orphans and poor families it’s hatzala it’s Chaverim it’s bikur Cholim it’s the family structure that we try as much as possible in this crazy world to still keep in tact it’s the siddur it’s the tehillim it’s the hope it’s the love and trust me I’ve been hurt I’ve been around the block but it only hurts you to find the flaws. There is magnificence to yidishkeit and to deny it is to deny yourself a happy life. Just because some Jews get sucked in that doesn’t give anyone the excuse to bash it or go against it. You rise above it. You become the Jew you wish they were!!!! Don’t use it as some laze excuse because your lazy to commit and keep the mitzvos. (Not you, people)
Don’t give me the Jews this and the Jews that!!!!! When’s the last time you heard a Jew murdered someone?? When’s the last time a Jew mugged someone?? Yes there are molesters and there are sick people and there are problems but don’t represent Judaism like that!!!!!!!!! It’s sick!!! There are crazy people all over and Jews are not perfect we are trying and we are one family and no one has a family like ours and If you make urself a part and commit to the one who is committed to you you will live a life of ecstasy. I am.
@@meiracohen4907 And one more thing. Whats the oppression???????? That we can’t eat an animal that rolls around in mud and is slaughtered grossly so oppressive we can’t eat pork???? Which part?? I’m frum and I’m not oppressed at all I’m free i fall into gods hands and trust him and i am free. Go to a park watch the Jewish kids play watch the Parents morning to night providing for their families watch a shabbas meal with steak and fish and soup and dessert. Are you nuts???? Oppressed?
Thank you for your response. What you says sounds ethereal on a surface level yet if you delve slightly deeper you see how hatzolah is all male. Women wanted to join, get the same opportunities as full human beings, and were refused by the power structure, of, again, all men. They founded their own, Ezras Nashim, and I am sure you are aware of all the obstacles they face. If you are not, I suggest you look it up.
And, when you say do deny (deprive?) yourself of Judaism is to deny oneself a happy life that just adds proof to the fact many believe they hold supreme authority, infallible, and hold a monopoly on all things good, truth, and morals. That’s simply untrue. I lived there frankly and although there are many things awry systemically, life was miserable in a right wing modern orthodox community where in middle school I had struggles with wanting to live due to the expression and authenticity I was deprived of. This is the experience of many and cannot go unaddressed.
Love love love Julia 💖
This is ridiculous she’s saying lies about our community and your loving her.
@HauteLeMode you need to react to this closet!
Omgd! 🤦♀️ I’m an Orthodox Jew, should I post some pictures of what I wear on an average day?! She’s being so dramatic “just her hands and face..”! Lmao no one ever commanded us to look ugly and only show our faces. I wear plenty cute things my wardrobe be a ok 👌 By us it’s just the concept of modesty where we shouldn’t put our whole body out there for everyone because it’s something that should be more private and special
Glad for ya but just cause your experience is different doesn't invalidate hers. Every religions have extremist sectors.
@@cassandrafrantz8307 100% every religion has its extremists. But first off, Julia was never ultra orthodox just btw. They were a regular orthodox family similar to mine. And also, I would never invalidate someone’s rough experience. However it’s not fair of her make a whole show bringing up tons of examples so out of context and have the world take everything she says so literally. Also, lots of ppl go through hardships, but don’t blame/confuse that with religion.
And btw she’s such a preacher of how everyone should be able to do what they want and yet did you see how she was reacting to her son saying he wants to remain orthodox?? I mean come on that’s so hypocritical!
It’s just sad that Netflix turns down movies of Judaism portrayed in beautiful light. They like to get involved only in the negativity.
If what you wear is fashionable, good for you (genuinely) but it is all per the commands of a series of men, where you have no representation or seat at the table of the determination of your lives..
And, even if you agree with the men (rabbis), you don’t make that distinction yourself and even if you disagreed, you have no power to wage, no Gemara learning to base that on. It would be really difficult for a woman to be the equivalent of kanievsky in the same form as kanievsky and speak and lead and that’s not ok. And, girls internalize this, arguing in defense of their subservience, lack of positions of power, and it can be heartbreaking.
@@meiracohen4907 ok I’m not 100% following your train of thought but all I will say is as much as I didn’t learn a lot of Gemara, I got a pretty good education on Judaism and sources for things… We do have guidelines as to what is right and wrong when it comes to modesty. I’m not saying I’m perfect with it but I’m just saying we can show skin we don’t have to cover everything besides our hands and face! We’re supposed to look beautiful but just in a modest way.
And maybe we should leave R Chaim Kanievsky out of this?! He’s too holy to bring up under the topic of this show lol
Just let me play in here!
So wow! This is like a department store! This is wonderful!
Deceiving show. Maybe this lady can get some happiness with shoes… and more shoes now bought by lies profit.
You can tell when she is lying about her upbringing when she pauses, takes a deep breath, and then spins a tale about how supposedly she was raised. And all this to justify her display of tone-deaf and out of touch consumerism during Covid-19. And ET's Lauren Zima's ogling and fan-girl-ing over Julia makes this so cringy!! 😳😳
Yup, I was her neighbor in Monsey, NY. Her entire origin story is a lie.
Wait. What does this have to do with Covid?
Lies lies and more lies!!! The internet needs to stop posting these lies....
I love Julia but not her fashion 😐 stripper shoes, super tight short clothes, extremely tacky. I appreciate her wanting to show skin, I love that too but do it with good taste!
A successful women is always named.. A gold digger or liar or fake.. Sad but true.. In love Julia I know how conservative society work... Kuudos to her.. She has reached a place where she can be heard and that's what every woman needs to learn.. They will judge you but hey they can't ignore u now.. U r Julia haart.. Love u
Let's not forget her husband is the money maker. But she won't say it, and she has no time for him. Elite is her husbands company, not here. They are divorcing
Where are Julia's handbags??
I am a little compulsive when it comes to organization of my closet and every designer piece I own is with the corresponding garment bag of the same designer and the hanger from the same designer ( I have a talent for asking them for it) I see a lot of couture in her closet but not organized she had a Chanel dress with a bunch of jackets and the Louis Vuitton dress she just purchased with a Dior hanger I do like her personalized hangers and overall this is nice closet but not as organized as it should be, call me I will organize for you !!!! lol
She’s in a lot of pain misken
I watched this show and I really like her and her family. And as a woman I am super proud of everything that she accomplished. I never knew that the Jewish religion was so strict and aggressive. Everybody always talks how bad Islam is, but Islam is not half of this cruel as the community she was in. It saddens me that everybody bash one religion not knowing how beautiful and caring it for women is. Even though there religions who tell you your going straight to hell for wearing pants...
Couldn't agree more. All these years, we've been drilled to believe Islamic soccietes in the middle east etc are some kind of backward, women unfriendly, male dominant type societies. While here, right under our noses women can't even divorce, wear pants, can't have their singing voices heard, can't get the educationthey want from the schools they like..oh And men can divorce you for burning food .. where are all the women's rights activists ??
please don't let her experience with Judaism represent all of Judaism. Much like every religion, there's a huge spectrum of religious observance within Judaism and her experience was with extremism, which is a tiny sect of a huge spectrum. Judaism is a beautiful religion and culture that encompasses a vast range of beliefs, values and standards from the very liberal to the very conservative, just like Islam and just like Christianity. I highly recommend doing a bit of research into the different viewpoints within Judaism before passing judgement.
@@defygravity89 I never judged or thought negative about Judaism before I saw this show. I mean I still don't but I was shocked that she said that that's what the Tora says. And you're gonna go to hell If you do this and that and there's no forgiveness. When I was in school I did an presentation about Judaism and I researched a lot and I thought it is a beautiful religion as all religions. I Just never heard of this kind of extremism
@@defygravity89 i think instead of condemning this kind of "religious observance", you are in fact, providing a sorry excuse. Instead of making a case that it is a no-big-deal because it happens in other religions and that "only" a number of minority groups are practicing such things within the Jewish faith, you should be condemning this behavior and this kind of society in full force. Unfortunately, you are choosing to be part of the problem by trying to downplay it. It's a pity.
@@heusernamenishta4820 nowhere in my response did I validate the behavior of the extremists. Nor did I say it was acceptable. It's horrible. They make me incredibly angry and I hate that they pretend to represent the broader Jewish people but I'm also not here for people making sweeping assumptions and generalizations about Judaism based on one group. Would you allow someone to make generalizations about your culture or religion without speaking up against it? I doubt it. have a nice night.
A way how to make money and shaming such a beautiful religion. This is sick
Yawn.... Jealous much?
Its her experience. How is that sick? It is what it is. Fundamentalism is wrong no matter which religion it comes from.
She says that when she's at the supermarket, she reaches over like a 3 yr old.... did anyone take that quite literally?? I mean she definitely is taller than a 3 yr old.
I'm PETITE! So why didn't she just use the word PETITE??
Because she is dramatic and likes to exaggerate! Period.
As an orthodox jewish woman I will tell you that she is making so much exaggerations!
This comment seems to be an exaggeration on her statement. I myself am petite and I think she painted a vivid, light hearted and accurate picture of my own experiences. Made me chuckle.
You do not go to hell for wearing pants!!! Its such rubbish!!!
Louder for people in the back!!
Clothes are just things.
Wow
So many straight up lies just to justify this OTT lifestyle.
Why couldn’t she just admit this is what she wanted and chase her dreams and not have to throw everyone under the bus.
All about the attention and scandalous fame. Sad. And pathetic. And kind of evil.
Well said. I am so saddened for her children …
She reminds me of Eugenia Cooney.
If you go back in time Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell. MOVIE OVER BOARD..HE BUILT HER A CLOSET ON HER YACHT. WAS THE FIRST MOVING CLOSET I'VE EVER SEEN. ❤By the way the remake of over board is nothing compared to the original movie .
This is disgusting. Why does one person needs all of this? People are starving. You should donate some of these items.
God made me ghetto Julia for the humans 😂
Netflix you don't need to promote this.
Dressing modestly is a beautiful thing. It's ashame that people don't see it that way. Modesty= Beauty
May she one day come back to Hashem
Amen!! And the rest of her family as well
She’s finally come to Hashem now in her freedom, she’ll thankfully never go back to the man-made version of hashem of ultra-orthodoxy
Just imagine celebrities closet
People like there is a black fashion superstar here somewhere on earth we have to prepare!
Me: Looking around for her where is she lol
Where the hell is she because this can’t all be for me 😂
I have the Gucci in taupe 😊
Haven’t had the pleasure in walking in them / wearing them yet but had to get them
I thought as much I said they’re Gucci but not Gucci. Nice 👌🏾
I thought everyone else had designer things whats all this fuss for me for / it can’t be for me 😂
My classmates mother is a chadish jew and a clothing designer
So sad, shoes, clothes, wow that really nourishes your soul. You do not have any understanding of Judaism. Frivolous. What a slippery slope. You are an adult and you have free choice, but your children have been denied their heritage. A broken chain.
Well said…
Nun ja, Netflix vermarktet . Diese selbstdarstellende Doku ist , was man bei uns in Europa sagt, typisch amerikanisch. Mag sein, dass diese Frau, von der ich das erste Mal höre und sehe ( aber die Modebranche ist ohnehin elitär und so oberflächlich, dass es sicher vielen Zuschauern ähnlich geht) , ihr Leben und ihren Erfolg ausbreiten muss- ich empfinde sie als unangenehm laut und übergriffig. Letztendlich :brach sie aus einem extremen Leben aus und wählte das nächste extreme Leben . Ob das positiv zu werten ist, muss man selbst entscheiden, wenn der Blick darauf kritisch genug ist. Man muss nicht, um sich zu positionieren, das Sexualleben der Kinder öffentlich breittreten . Aber da es ja eine sogenannte Doku ist , haben die Kinder sicherlich auch diese Szenen abgesegnet.
Before watching the show I knew you are going to be an inspiration to me and after watching the show, I was so sure that I was right. I love your strength and freeing power. GO GIRL
The religious Jewish community is absolutely wonderful! Are there issues just like there are issues in every other community? Sure. Are there strict parents in every religion and every sect? Sure. But you have to be really stupid to look past the amazing beautiful happy qualities of our community. She’ll come back around. There is nothing better out there. And definitely a closet full of clothes and an occupation thats a boost to the ego can’t replace what it means to be a practicing fulfilled commited to hashem kind of jew. So many non Jews see it and speak about it and look up to our community surely our own will come back and see the light.
This is exactly what I was thinking...best comment
Yes! Unlike what most people would assume from other cults or fictional shows like The Handmaid's Tale, etc, there is no one forcing, chasing, or punishing people who don't keep the Jewish law. The religious Jews practice Judaism because they love God and they made a covenant with God. Judaism also teaches how non-Jews are perfectly fine as long as they respect God's name, live moral lives, establish a just society, etc. There is so much spirituality and depth in the values and teachings of Judaism. Do any of the mainstream TV shows and movies mention these aspects?
Why can’t she show her closet without bashing me? Rotfl
same smh
she’s very inspiring.
shes a loser on all fronts..she was never a religious or observant Jewish woman...she was a faker and still is...now she tells stories to justify her BS.....she will have all...and then nothing
@@rachelgrabowiecki4039 how dare you refer to someone you don’t know as a “loser.” the ego you have to have for that is appalling. as for the second part, are you blind? she clearly was an ultra orthodox jew. pictures were shown and evidence of her whole family and others being religious were there, as well as extensive knowledge of ultra orthodox practices and terms. what “bs” are you referring to? she “tells stories” about things that happened to her in her life, just like anyone else. to wish upon someone else that they should “have nothing” is so low and you sound like an awful person. please mind your own business and stop forcing religion onto others.
@@rachelgrabowiecki4039 She married out and a priest conducted the ceremony. She is completely secular and eats non kosher and wants her children to abandon traditional Judaism. it is so sad that she was a Jewish studies teacher at a Jewish day school
She is so full of crap. And this is coming from a person whose whole family is frum. My mother wears a sheital, all my family covers their hair. My husband is from a hasidic background too the last of 8 children. Both of us grew up orthodox and went through an orthodox education our whole lives. Julia Haart is a liar and exaggerater. And FYI, she was pretty modern orthodox not hasidic. Super revolting human.
Just because your experience was different does not make hers illegitimate. Not all Orthodox communities are identical but this definitely is a thing. I know.
Every Hunny’s DREAM closest .
Not everyone who leads a restricted life and then breaks free becomes rich enough to buy this amount of clothing stuppo
The Nanny version 2.0
So not my experience or my friends in the orthodox Jewish community. So sad that this was how you were treated but you need to really speak to your personal experience and not generalize to every women in the orthodox Jewish community.
If you pay close attention or watch the Netflix series, she actually doesn’t generalize, she is specific about her old community not all of orthodoxy although the apple doesn’t fall too far from the true as an ex-orthodox jew I say this. Regardless, she says Judaism is a beautiful religion in the show and she specifically clarifies its fundamentalism in ALL religions thay she’s against and rightfully so.
She has more clothes than there are in a boutique
Omg wait I think her daughter filmed her closet or soemthing idk
This is basically Julia Haart and her family:

😍😍😍😍😍😍
Wow 😳 This lady has no idea what is real, or what's coming down the pike. She better find out soon or she will be lost. A lot of you people know just what I'm talking about🤔
Gag me I just threw up all over my phone
Just to put this out here this lady is making stuff up. I’m a fully orthadox Jew and this poor lady either wasn’t raised right or telling lies because there is absolutey no where that says if u wear pants urgoing to hell yes its not our costum but hell isn’t even believed in the Jewish world. And no i dont cover my body head to toe all that needs to be covered is my shirts need to go to me elbows and past my cooler bones and my skirts need to cover my knees I don’t have to overdress myself and im perfectly ocmfterable in what i wear.
Julia dear, i saw your Netflix series,( I'm from Israel) and i loved it very much. I suport your opinion 100% about the extreme religious jewish way of life. This series is very important for everyone to watch, learn and raise awareness about this complicated subject and maybe it will even make a change! I'm sure YOU will help lots of woman get out of emotionally dangerous life they can't tollerate. Thank you for being the great and loving person you are. Irit levy from Israel
Irit why are you commenting on a life that you have no clue about!!?? NO clue at all! You are the one living the emotionally dangerous life !! You allow yourself to comment on a topic you know nothing of..nothing! Is your mother Jewish?
Why? You think that these Holywood fools have a great life? Its all emptiness and lies. Flashy on the outside, empty inside.
@@rachelgrabowiecki4039 I wrote i'm from Israel. that alone speaks for itself. so next time before you comment, read carefully! yes! i have a lot more than a clue. I'm jewish!!!
@@TagMahirTzedek Her agenda is all about libaranion to choose the life you want and not the life that's been picked for you! If you can't even choose who you can marry, that's not ecceptable and twisted
@@iritlevy37 holy cow! Why are you believing everything you hear?! We most definitely can choose who we wanna marry! I’m 20 and I’ve dated a handful of guys and guess what, I wasn’t forced to marry any of them! Shocker 😱🤦♀️
Why is she wearing a wig now?
vanity
She wore such dreary clothes for so long she is making up for it.I do not necessarily admire this woman as she "kinda" slept her way to the top, but you got to admit her tenesity.
"If you wear these you and your mother are going to hell" I thought Jewish people don't believe in afterlife? Genuine question
Two articles of Maimonides principles of the Jewish faith are the belief in ultimate reward and punishment and the resurrection of the dead. Perforce a Torah observant (Orthodox) Jew firmly believes in the afterlife.!
Hi I’m a Jewish from Israel so from a lot of knowledge I can tell u almost every thing she said was misleading and untrue growing up very religious I was taught that all Jewish people will go to heaven and that god accept us no matter what..
In The Torah it says that every single jew has a place in the world to come. We definitely do Believe in the the afterlife we believe it is actually the true destination and this life is a hallway to get there. We don’t speak like that we don’t talk about hell that way if it ever is discussed it’s to help us steer away from evil and chose well. God only wants the best for us.
@@B100-R Kol Yisrael Yesh Lechem helek leolam Haba is followed by those who don't. Their are exceptions as well. Some loose their portion for certain sins and false beliefs.
We do believe in an afterlife both for Jews and non Jews as well. Both heaven and hell although the later isn't permanent
The quest for fame is not a good look….
Over consumption is an actual problem on this planet! I’m happy you changed following a man but holy crap you do not need 100,000 shirts as one person, you’re not that important, nobody is
I'm 4.9 ft 😂👌 i know yours problem
💯❤️❤️❤️💪💪
She goes on too much tangents lol.
Julia ...tone down alittle bit in year 2025...enjoy life
She enjoys it with flair. Why should she have to tone it down. Hope she's using her wealth for good though just as equally as she uses it for fun. You be you girl.
