Our guest on this episode is Dr Michael Larrar. It will be the first time that we will have an interview in French ;)

👉 About Michael Larrar 

Dr Michael Larrar is a psychiatrist and a psychoanalyst originally from France, who made Alya 8 years ago and is based now in Israel.

Dr Larrar specializes in treating children and athletes, but that is not the reason that I have invited him to speak in my JWEL Podcast.

👉 What will we talk about 

I heard Dr Larrar in a Zoom conference and there were 2 points in what he said that struck my attention so I invited him for an interview so we can discuss these in more depth

Here are the 2 points that Dr Larrar and myself will speak about in this interview:
1. How to transform our suffering from what is happening in Israel and to the Jewish People into something greater than ourselves
2. How to understand why a part of the world is not interested in facts and truth when we talk about Israel or the Jews

👉 Disclaimer

this interview is in French, but you can watch it with English subtitles, on YouTube here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QUaVYsP7N40

She is the CEO and artist at Ben Zion Metal Art which designs and manufactures modern metal Gedolim artworks. You can visit her website here www.benzionfinearts.com

As a small business owner selling a luxury item, her business was frozen by the war. Who can think of purchasing art or luxury items in times of war?

And then she came across a very interesting initiative called "Shuk to the core" organized by local Americans who want to help Israel by supporting Israeli businesses in this time of war, by offering them the opportunity to present and sell their artwork at American Jewish Hanukkah fairs.

As soon as the war broke, Aliza saw that many people from abroad wanted to support Israel and so she compiled a list of Israeli Entrepreneurs who are impacted by the war, so that people from abroad could buy products and services from them, as a way to show their support.

This is an amazing initiative and as soon as I heard about it, I reached out to Aliza and invited her to the JWEL Podcast
