First up, Joseph Gestetner, CMO of CBS (Centralized Business Services), opens up about his journey through the healthcare world, trade shows, and the power of vulnerability. From running a high-performing back office to launching a music career, Joseph proves that you can be strategic and emotional, business-savvy and soulful, all at once. He shares why building real relationships—not just collecting business cards—is everything, and how sharing his most personal story publicly helped him grow both professionally and personally.

Then we sit down with Laibel Schwartz, founder of Laibel Schwartz Photography, who turned a small wedding photography gig into a high-end branding and visual storytelling powerhouse. Laibel reveals how he creates impact-driven content for major brands, solves real business problems through video, and why authenticity is the most powerful marketing tool of all. His creative philosophy? People don’t want perfect—they want real.

Whether you're a startup founder, a healthcare operator, a content creator, or someone just trying to figure out your next big move—this episode is packed with raw insights, strategy, and inspiration to help you level up in your business and your mindset.

In this inspiring episode of the None of Your Business Podcast, Michael Greenfield and Ushy Schwartz sit down with David “Dudi” Mashinsky, a former Rebbe who went from teaching Alef-Bais with a guitar to leading multi-million dollar healthcare renovation projects. His journey is anything but conventional—and it’s packed with lessons on creativity, grit, and trusting your instincts.

David opens up about his early days in the classroom, using music as a tool for learning, and how his childhood love of doodling architecture turned into a real-life design empire. What started with one nursing home lobby has evolved into Dynamic Design, a one-stop-shop design-build firm that’s redefining the aesthetics of senior care across the country.

He breaks down how he transitioned from chinuch to construction, why most operators hate dealing with designers and contractors, and how his all-in-one solution has changed the game for healthcare facilities. From a flooded New Jersey nursing home reborn in six months to a million-dollar rehab gym in a cathedral-style chapel, David’s projects speak for themselves—but it’s the man behind the brand that will really leave you inspired.

This episode is also a must-listen for Rebbeim and educators facing burnout, or anyone contemplating a career pivot. David shares real talk about building confidence, learning from failure, and why chasing your passion will always take you further than chasing trends.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in a job, unsure of how to turn your side passion into a real business, or just want to hear the raw, real story of someone who made it happen against the odds, this episode is for you.

David “Dudi” Mashinsky proves that sometimes the most powerful transformations start with a guitar, a sketchpad, and a whole lot of faith.

In this powerful and eye-opening episode of the None of Your Business Podcast, Michael Greenfield and Ushy Schwartz sit down with Chaim Meisels and Akiva Shapiro, two unexpected warriors who left their lives behind to fight for Israel. Their journeys from vastly different backgrounds—one from the Satmar Hasidic community, the other navigating dual citizenship—led them both to the Israeli Defense Forces, a decision that would change their lives forever.

Chaim grew up in Williamsburg, surrounded by a world that rejected Zionism, yet he felt an undeniable pull toward the Jewish homeland and the fight to protect it. What started as a fascination with the Holocaust turned into a burning mission to stand with Israel—even if it meant leaving behind everything he knew. Akiva, born in Israel but raised in America, found himself forced into a choice he never expected when the IDF came knocking. Instead of avoiding his duty, he ran straight toward it, ultimately serving in one of the most intense combat units.

They share raw, unfiltered stories of what it’s really like to transition from civilian life to the battlefield, the brutal realities of war, and the mental toll that lingers long after the fight is over. From navigating family backlash and community judgment to the trauma of combat and the struggle to reintegrate into society, this episode pulls back the curtain on the sacrifices few are willing to make.

Why did Chaim leave the ultra-Orthodox world for the army? How did Akiva accidentally get drafted—and what made him stay? And what happens to soldiers once the war is over—when the cameras turn off, but the battle in their minds never stops?

This episode is more than just a conversation—it’s a wake-up call about sacrifice, identity, and what it truly means to fight for your people. Don’t miss this deep, emotional, and brutally honest discussion that will change the way you see Israel, its soldiers, and the price of freedom.

Elie Goldring, a visionary entrepreneur and EOS (Entrepreneurial Operating System) implementer, takes us inside the game-changing systems that turn struggling businesses into success stories. From his struggles with dyslexia to becoming a trusted business strategist, Elie proves that education doesn’t define success—action does. He dives deep into how structure and accountability create unstoppable companies, why he believes most businesses fail to scale, and the unbelievable story of how reading a single book overnight changed his entire career.

Together, Eli and Elie break down the myths of entrepreneurship, share hard-hitting lessons on branding and leadership, and reveal the mindset shifts that separate the successful from the stagnant.

Why did Eli Basch walk away from a high-paying job to start from scratch? How did Elie Goldring go from barely making it through school to coaching CEOs? And what is the one branding trick that could change your business overnight?

In this compelling episode of the None of Your Business Podcast, Michael Greenfield and Ushy Schwartz sit down with Chaim Sieger, a true legend in the nursing home industry. With nearly five decades of experience, Chaim has witnessed firsthand the rise, fall, and transformation of the business—from a time when regulations were loose and deals were sealed with a handshake to today’s highly scrutinized, tightly regulated world of healthcare.

Chaim takes us on a remarkable journey, from starting out as a bookkeeper in 1974 to becoming the owner and operator of one of New York’s highest-rated nursing homes. He opens up about the tough decisions that shaped his career, the lessons he learned from failure, and why he chose quality of life over endless expansion, even when others were chasing bigger and bigger deals.

But this conversation goes beyond business. Chaim shares his deep commitment to patient care, his unwavering ethics, and how he instills these values in the next generation. He also reveals the dark side of the industry, the pressures of running a five-star facility, and why so many ambitious operators burn out chasing profits instead of focusing on what really matters.

Why did Chaim turn down the chance to build an empire of nursing homes? What’s the biggest mistake young operators are making today? And how did he save a Jewish patient from cremation—leading to an unbelievable twist of fate? Tune in for a raw, unfiltered discussion about legacy, business, and what it really takes to succeed in the world of healthcare. Whether you’re in the industry or just love a great success story, this episode will leave you thinking differently about ambition, integrity, and the true cost of success.
