432: The Art of Abundance with Yaeli Vogel
B”H
I’m thrilled to welcome back a long time friend of the show – visual artist Yaeli Vogel. She is the founder of Yaeli Vogel, a brand that blends Jewish identity, spirituality, and tradition with contemporary design. Through her captivating Judaica, fine art, and home décor, Yaeli infuses luxury, joy, and color into everyday life while honoring Jewish heritage.
She was with me back in 2019 on Episode 97 of this show. Her journey to becoming a full time artist was good then. Now it’s even better! This time we really dive into the mindset work that she credits for all her business and personal success. This is a very helpful conversation to have right as you’re coming out of Pesach – where hopefully you’ve already worked on freeing yourself of limitations, especially those in the mind, which is where all limitations live. As you now take on the added work of emotional refinement during the time of Sefirat HaOmer, I can’t think of a better conversation to have than the one you’re about to listen to with Yaeli Vogel. As you’ll soon hear, if you’re not working on the software – the mindset – your hardware will be compromised. It’s the harder work, for sure, but Yaeli is here to encourage us to do it. And I couldn’t agree more. It is well worth it. And so is this wonderful conversation on the art of abundance with the beautiful Yaeli Vogel.

I hope you had strong coffee today – you’re going to need it in order to keep up with my guest’s energy. I have serial entrepreneur Noam Kransniansky on the show. Today is only Part 1 of a two part series, where Noam takes us deep into the world of block chain innovation. Noam is the founder of Komposite Blockchain and of the House of Ooonimals. Before we get deep into the topic of blockchain, we do a deep dive into Noam’s entrepreneurial journey and how he got to starting Komposite. Next week we’ll talk a bit more about his vision for House of Ooonimals, Komposite and the entire blockchain technology space. Noam was a winner at Sharktank with his product called Bambooee and now he’s brining his business acumen into the world of NFT’s and Blockchain. What led him to go from selling consumer products to enter this new space with such passion and determination? That, and more, with Noam Krasniansky.
