Attract Greater Abundance into Your Life and Business: Debbie Sassen, Money Mentor and Coach for Jewish Women in Conversation with Dr. Azi. Episode 89. Part One of Two with Debbie and Azi. In this episode of Inspired by Purpose Podcast, Dr. Azi and Debbie dive into creating abundance in your business, as well as starting and growing a business with the greatest return on investment that supports work life harmony and your feeling inspired. Debbie Sassen is. a business and money coach for Jewish entrepreneurs, helping them create consistent 5k-20k months in group coaching and 1:1 programs. Connect with Debbie: www.debbiesassen.com Debbie Sassen is a Business and Money Mindset Coach and former Financial Planner.   She helps entrepreneurs create consistent $5k-20K months and build wealth, in alignment with authentic Jewish values. Because money is so intimately involved with everything we do in business, Debbie believes that clearing your money blocks makes everything else easier. Her coaching combines business strategy, money management and mindset to help entrepreneurs dissolve the limiting beliefs that keep them stuck in a cycle of under-selling, under-earning, and under-investing. Unfortunately, too many women - and men - never learned how to understand money, earn abundantly, and manage their finances to build wealth. Debbie believes it's time we changed that narrative! None of us should have to dim our lights and brilliance to build a solid financial reality for ourselves and our families - now and in the future! When we own our wealth and take responsibility for it, we give other people permission to shine their brilliance brightly, too.

Today's guests on the podcast are none other than Dr. Edith Eva Eger - "Dr. Edie" - and her grandson Jordan Engle. Dr. Azi speaks with them about the courses that they've recently produced together: Unlocking Your Potential, and Forgiveness: A Gift You Give to Yourself. They also speak about Dr. Eger's NYT bestselling books, "The Choice," and "The Gift," as well as her work as a pioneer in the field of trauma healing, and her personal experiences in the Holocaust as a prisoner of Auschwitz. Dr. Eger shares the wisdom of her life and work, which is not to be missed by anyone. As Oprah has said, "I will be forever changed by Dr. Eger's work," and here at Inspired by Purpose, we believe that Dr. Eger's work can inspire, impact, and help anyone and everyone to heal and unlock their potential. Episode Highlights: Intro 00-2:50 About Dr. Eger's Life 3:00-11:30 About Jordan Engle 11:40 - 14:00 Interview with Dr. Eger and Jordan 14:00 - 1:08 1:08: Reflections on the Episode with your host Dr. Azi, how Dr. Eger's work and most recently the courses have impacted her personally, and a special message for you on how to unlock your impact and live inspired by purpose. Personal Takeaways from the Episode and Dr. Eger's work: On Leadership, Courage, Mental Health, and More - with your Host, Dr. Azi Jankovic About our Guests: "Dr. Edith Eger is a sought-after clinical psychologist and lecturer, helping individuals discard their limitations, discover their powers of self-renewal, and achieve things they previously thought unattainable. Using her own past as a Holocaust survivor and thriver as a powerful analogy, she inspires people to tap their full potential and shape their very best destinies. It's a message of healing and personal growth. A message of freedom from selfimposed limitations. A message of CHOICE to move from recovery to discovery and beyond." Jordan Engle "Jordan Engle is a storyteller. His passion for finding powerful stories and helping to bring them to life is his soul's work. In his 20's as an actor and screenwriter Jordan spent 10 years in Los Angeles learning the craft of filmmaking and storytelling. From there his passion for still photography led him into a career taking portraits of actors and professionals. From being Google's preferred headshot photographer to creating portraits of Kevin Hart, Jordan's passion for photography has been a steady source of inspiration. In addition to photography, for the last 5 years Jordan has immersed himself into the Edie-verse as he calls it. As the grandson of Dr. Edith Eger, Jordan has used his storytelling and content creating to support Edie's rise to fame and success as a transformational figure and author. Together Jordan and Edie have recently created two breakthrough online courses, "Unlocking Your Potential" and "Forgiveness : A gift I give myself," both offered through Jordan's company, Soul Search. Next Jordan is co-authoring with Edie her third book, which will be focused on the young adult audience, where Edie takes readers through her youth, and tells her story of her holocaust survival in order to show young readers the lessons they can use in their own life. Jordan has also created the Edith Eger Foundation which will be helping to educate the youth about Edie's story and wisdom."  Learn More about Dr. Edith Eva Eger https://dreditheger.com/ Courses from Dr. Eger and Jordan Engle: https://yoursoulsearch.org/ Connect with Edie on Social: https://www.instagram.com/dr.editheger/ https://www.facebook.com/dreditheger To view the video version of this episode, access transcripts, and stay updated about the podcast: visit www.drazi.co/in Connect with Your Host: www.drazi.co www.customcreatedclips.com https://www.linkedin.com/in/azijankovic/  https://www.instagram.com/dr.azi.jankovic/

Today's guest is Dr. Ellen Vora, and we're diving in to why mental health is actually so much more than mental, as well as how you can live and work with greater wellbeing. Dr. Vora takes a functional medicine approach to mental health, considering the whole person and addressing the problem at the root, rather than reflexively prescribing medication to suppress symptoms. She takes the whole person into consideration, focusing on everything from physical health, sleep, nutrition, digestion, thought patterns, relationships and community, to our connection with nature, creativity, and purpose. Dr. Vora attended Columbia University for medical school and received her B.A. in English from Yale University. She's a board-certified psychiatrist, acupuncturist and yoga teacher.  You can connect with Dr. Vora on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ellenvoramd/ Or on her website https://ellenvora.com/ And you can buy her best-selling book, The Anatomy of Anxiety, using this link: https://ellenvora.com/book/ My own journey being diagnoses with depression over 25 years ago, I've learned first hand how important Dr. Vora's approach is. In recent years, following her and especially after reading her book, The Anatomy of Anxiety, it has guided me to be able to get the help that I need.

Today's episode was recorded on March 17th, 2020 from the Jerusalem living room of Rabbi Abraham J. Twerski, MD, of Blessed Memory, and is being aired for the first time, in its entirety, on the show. Rabbi Twerski was born in 1930 and left this world on January 31, 2021. He was a spiritual luminary, psychiatrist, and healer of the mind, body, and soul. He served as director of the department of psychiatry at St. Francis Hospital in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He lectured extensively around the world on topics such as stress, self-esteem, and spirituality, and as a spokesperson for recovery - inspiring and healing and well-being for those in need. He authored over 90 books. He traces his ancestry back to the Baal Shem Tov, a spiritual master of Judaism who founder of the Chassidic movement. The advice that he shares in this episode can help us through the most difficult of times - you'll hear him speak about his life story, and share wisdom that applies to all of life - relationships, business, wellbeing, and ultimately, the Spiritual Work of all humans.

When COVID hit this past Spring, my dormant anxiety and insomnia woke up - full force. After a few nights of medication-induced deep sleep and days filled with unwanted withdrawal symptoms, I began to wonder if there was a better way. What I discovered is a complete and total miracle. I would call it a drug, but as today's guest - Dr. Alan Flashman, MD, (Pediatrician and Psychiatrist) explains, it isn't actually a 'drug' at all. Cannabis. Something that I never would have considered in a responsible treatment protocol has become a staple in my daily self care routine, and I've never felt mentally, emotionally, or physically better in my life. As Dr. Flashman explains, I am not alone. Cannabis is being used in the successful treatment of PTSD, with anxiety symptoms, for Autism-associated behaviours in children, and other critical capacities. He shares an overview of Cannabis from a scientific perspective, why it has been illegal and controversial for so long, and what a responsible and compassionate treatment plan can look like that includes Cannabis.

In this episode, Elisheva Hudson speaks about the power of story telling, and how you can share your story with the world in a way that resonates. Elisheva studied filmmaking in university, and over the past several years, has found a way to utilize her creative passions and abilities to tell the stories of other creative entrepreneurs. She shares about the value of story telling, and how one of the best things that a brand can do to connect with its audience is to TELL THE STORY of the people behind the brand. You'll also hear about Elisheva's journey into entrepreneurship, as well as how I (Azi) first met Elisheva. Elisheva took part in my 12-Week program early on in 2020. Since then, she has continued to grow and evolve her business, as well as collaborate in many creative ways with other women in the program. To learn more about Elisheva or to connect with her directly, visit her website HERE (www.hudsonfilmsdocustory.com) Instagram HERE (instagram.com/elishevahudson) or Facebook HERE (.facebook.com/hudsonfilmsdocustory) When I first heard about her business, I was SO excited to connect with her because of my own personal connection to film and video. You'll hear all about that in this episode, as well as some of the lessons I've learned working closely with an entrepreneur in this field over the past sixteen years. A lot of my students and clients share their fears and anxieties with me around shifting out of being an employee and into being an entrepreneur. In this episode, you'll hear about a conversation with a close friend that I had over 15 years ago that gave me a helpful perspective when I was experiencing these same concerns. There's a lot to speak about when it comes to entrepreneurship. What's on your mind? Share your story, your ideas, or your questions with me via email (Azi@DrAzi.co) OR shoot me a message on Facebook (Within Us Podcast) or Instagram (Instagram.com/growyourinsight) I will respond to all of your messages. Thanks for tuning in, and until next time... wherever you are in the world, I hope that you are meeting yourself with kindness :) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/withinus/message

What is it that you want to see more of in your life? Less of? What is standing between you and your vision? Today's episode is all about moving forward and manifesting what you want most. In this live seminar facilitated by Azi, you'll be guided through a short meditation and led through an intuitive art exercise. The goal of these exercises is to get in touch with what you desire on the deeper, higher levels of your consciousness. While you could listen to this one in the car, its recommended that you set aside some time to do the exercises in a space where you can relax and be as uninterrupted as possible. There is a social component to the activity - you may choose to do this with a friend, or a community member (you're welcome to utilize Azi's Facebook community to find a partner - LINKED HERE.
