🎙️ Top advice from a hero with wings. And wheels - Episode 51
As the founder of the largest ambulatory anesthesia group in New York and New Jersey, you could say that he is already busy saving lives. But for Avishai Newman that was not enough. He joined Hatzala - the largest volunteer emergency service organization, then he helped launch Hatzalah Air, and then drove back and forth between hospitals in Israel saving lives after October 7th.
Avishai shares fascinating insights into his journey; the challenges along the way, how to know when to take a different path, and what it takes to build a successful career, alongside a family, and a busy volunteering schedule.
His advice is legendary. His humility exemplary. His success remarkable. And today, he's sharing how he got there.

🎙️ How to Reinvent Yourself - Again and Again - Episode 50
Most people spend their careers trying to climb one ladder. Jordan Kavana has built a career by knowing when to switch ladders entirely.
He’s moved across industries, launched new businesses, followed opportunities others might have ignored, and reinvented himself more than once along the way.
And in a world where very few of us will have one job, one company or even one career for life, that ability to start again may be one of the most valuable skills you can have.
In this episode of Jewish Grit Jordan shares what years of restarting have taught him: how he spots opportunity, how he decides when to pivot, how he gets moving before everything is figured out, and the mindset that allows him to keep building from scratch.
This isn’t advice about finding the perfect career path.
It’s advice for what to do when the path changes.

🎙️ Create a real attitude of gratitude at work - Episode 49
David Moore has seen it all: sudden loss, near-business collapse, explosive successes, and reinventing himself as both a CEO and a stand-up comic. David's title of “Chief Appreciation Officer” is not a gimmick, but a philosophy that pays off far beyond perks. In this episode, he shares:
✅ A view of responsibility that will change how you view your team
✅ How to cultivate an authentic attitude of gratitude as your company culture
✅ The power of saying yes.
✅ Why he advises people to stop networking.
“Don’t over-strategize your path — just say yes more often,” David reminds us. Success and impact come from owning your responsibilities, stepping up for others, and building a culture of gratitude, on and off the job
