When you think about what brings people together — across borders, languages, and beliefs — few forces are as powerful as music. And in a country as complex as Israel, the need for connection, empathy, and unity has never been greater.

That’s where Koolulam comes in. Founded on the simple but radical idea that strangers singing together can shift hearts and build bridges, Koolulam has become a global phenomenon. In parks, stadiums, and public squares, thousands of people — Jewish, Muslim, Christian, secular, religious, Israeli, and Palestinian — have gathered to create massive, breathtaking moments of harmony.

Today, I’m thrilled to be joined by Michal Shahaf, the co-founder and CEO of Koolulam, to talk about how a single song can change the atmosphere in a room — and maybe even change the world. We’ll explore the vision behind Koolulam, what it’s like to lead these incredible events, and why music might just be the most powerful peace-building tool we have.

Introducing PinPerfect — an amazing brand creating pins that are more than just accessories; they’re little pieces of pride, identity, and pure fun. Every design is made to spark conversations and tell a story.

Behind PinPerfect is David — a Londoner who moved to Tel Aviv 12 years ago, inspired by his Zionist roots and his service in the IDF. David fell in love with the energy of this city and, together with his sister Shelly — the creative mind behind their designs — turned his passion for collecting pins into creating them.
