Ep 205 – Disrupting Hate with Ken Schachter and guest Vered Atzmon Meshulam on hmTv:
In this powerful episode of Disrupting Hate on hmTv, host Ken Schachter speaks with psychologist Vered Atzmon Meshulam, head of the resilience division at ZAKA and founder of One Resilience for Israel.
Vered shares her frontline experiences from the aftermath of the October 7th Hamas attacks, when ZAKA volunteers were first on the scene, retrieving victims under fire and offering dignified treatment to the dead. She reveals how that day transformed her life’s mission—creating innovative, integrative trauma-healing programs for first responders, blending evidence-based therapy with spiritual tradition.
The conversation explores Vered’s deeply personal Holocaust family history, the emotional Argamani Project to reunite a hostage’s terminally ill mother with her sisters, and the urgent need for unity and resilience in Jewish communities worldwide. She also unveils her upcoming digital platform—a “safe, unifying space” designed to connect, protect, and strengthen Jews globally during both crises and everyday life.
This episode is an inspiring testament to courage, healing, and the unbreakable spirit of those who choose to repair the world in the face of hate.
