Lizzy Savetsky: Doubling Down on Israel


Listen Later

[Episode Recorded on September 11, 2025]


Lizzy Savetsky is an influencer who has been a staple of pro-Israel social media since October 7th, 2023. 

Prior to October 7th, Lizzy had advocated for Israel alongside other causes, including supporting Jewish women who experienced miscarriages and sobriety, but after October 7th,  she turned her focus entirely to Israel advocacy. At first this change in content cost Lizzy tens of thousands of followers and management, only for her following to balloon with her strong commitment to her values.

Lizzy has experienced many costs and unseen benefits from sticking to her values and advocating for Israel. She and Jay discuss those changes in her life through the lens of “finding your no” in activism, a topic Jay writes about in his book Find Your Fight.
