FIDF CEO Steven Weil is joined by Brig. Gen. (Res.) Nitzan Nuriel, to discuss the current state of Israel's multi-front war. By Gen. Nuriel's count, Israel is fighting a 9-front war. In Lebanon, the new president appears to be delivering positive messages, but it's too soon to make a definitive judgement on him. And, with the pending ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel, Gen. Nuriel believes that Syria will become the new hub of Hamas, which will create new problems for Israel. With that said, there is good news coming from Iraq, as they no longer want any part of the conflict, and have cut ties with Iran. The Houthis have continued launching rockets and drones. Iran now needs to regroup and find new sources of funding, and needs to replace Lebanon as a hub for Hezbollah. Gen. Nuriel believes that Jordan will become the replacement, and the IDF is already taking steps to prevent this. Gen. Nuriel is confident that the first stage the Hamas Ceasefire deal will come to fruition, but has drawbacks about stage two, due to the many obstacles and many things that can transpire between now and when stage two is set to commence. The fighting in Gaza has grown incredibly challenging due to the heavy implementation of booby-traps and the constant flow of Hamas recruitment that allows Hamas to replenish their forces on a rolling basis. However, if the ceasefire deal holds, the terrorists will not be released to Gaza, but in a different country, and we will see the return of a large number of hostages.  Donate NOW at FIDF.org for the fastest and most direct way to give IDF Soldiers what they need most. 100% of your contribution will go to meet their emergency humanitarian needs.

Homo Temporalis: German Jewish Thinkers on Time (Cornell UP, 2025) tells the story of a group of twentieth-century Jewish intellectuals who grappled ceaselessly with concepts of time and temporality. The project brings into dialogue key thinkers, including the philosopher of religion Martin Buber, the critical theorist Walter Benjamin, the political scientist Hannah Arendt, and the poet Paul Celan, who stand at the center of our contemporary understanding of religion, critical theory, politics, and literature. All four, and many colleagues around them who identified with their approaches saw time—not space—as the key to their individual and collective experience, rejecting definitions of self based on borders, territory, or geographic/national origin. Following their path teaches us about three “temporal turns”: In the early 1900s, between1933-1945, and ours, in the early 2000s. Nitzan Lebovic is a professor of history and the Apter Chair of Holocaust Studies and Ethical Values at Lehigh University. Nitzan is the author of The Philosophy of Life and Death: Ludwig Klages and the Rise of a Nazi Biopolitics (2013), Zionism and Melancholy: The short Life of Israel Zarchi (2019), and Homo Temporalis: Martin Buber, Walter Benjamin, Hannah Arendt, and Paul Celan about Time (2025). Nitzan is the co-editor of Catastrophes: The History and Theory of an Operative Concept (2014) and Nihilism and the State of Israel: New Critical Perspectives (2014), and edited special issues about political theology, nihilism, and biopolitics.

FIDF CEO Steven Weil is joined by Brig. Gen. (Res.) Nitzan Nuriel, to discuss the current state of Israel's multi-front war. Brig. Gen. Nuriel explains that the current mission in Gaza is to ensure that Hamas will not be able to regain power in the region. He believes that this mission is going to take a significant amount of time, barring a surrender of Hamas and reaching an agreement to release the hostages. The IDF's primary goal in Lebanon is also to neutralize the threat of Hezbollah missile fire for good, and to prevent Hezbollah from regaining power in the region. The IDF is preparing for a potential threat along the Jordanian border, with Iran now setting its sights on mobilizing its shiite militias in Syria and Iraq as a result of Hezbollah being on the brink of annihilation and losing Hamas completely. Brig. Gen. Nuriel reminds us that, while Israel is winning the war, the IDF has weathered significant losses, primarily to their reserve corps.

Over 200 people were abducted into Gaza by Hamas and a lot has changed over the last year. Tensions are continuing to rise and war is continuing to spread in the region. In this episode, visual poet Nitzan Mintz and street artist  Dede Bandaid join Ron Steslow to discuss the impact of their guerrilla art poster campaign aimed at raising awareness for hostages kidnapped by Hamas.  They reflect on the emotional toll of the ongoing situation, the importance of community support, and the role of art in advocating for humanity. They share personal experiences of trauma, resilience, and hope, emphasizing the need for continued awareness and action to bring the hostages home.

Today's daf is sponsored by Amy Goldstein in loving memory of her mother, Carolyn Barnett-Goldstein, on her 5th yahrzeit. "She was passionately dedicated to the Jewish People and the arts. We miss her larger-than-life presence every day, and struggle to understand that she is gone." Today's daf is sponsored by Abby Flamholz’s daughter-in-law, Sigal Spitzer Flamholz and her two granddaughters Nitzan and Orlie Flamholz in honor of Abby's birthday. "Thanks for paving the way for Talmud Torah in our family!" If one recognizes items belonging to them in someone's house and the owner of the house claims they purchased them, the owner of the house takes an oath about the purchase price and returns the item to the original owner for the value of the item. But this is only if it is known that the person was robbed. If not, there is a concern that the claimant sold the item and now regrets the sale and wants the item back. The Gemara asks why knowing the person was robbed is enough to allay the fear that they are just trying to renege on a sale? Rav explains that there needs to be some sort of circumstantial evidence that the item in question was stolen. If a thief sells a stolen item, can the one who was robbed demand the item back from the buyer or only from the thief? Rav and Rabbi Yochanan disagree. Four explanations are brought to explain the basis of their debate. The rabbis instituted takanat hashuk to protect buyers. The takana is that if someone claims that the item is theirs, they can take it back but they need to reimburse the buyer the amount that they paid so that the buyer does not need to find the thief who sold him/her the item. In what cases does the takana apply/not apply? If two people are walking and one has honey in a jar that is breaking, and the other has wine (less expensive than honey) and the wine owner dumps the wine to help save the honey, what compensation does the wine owner receive? The Gemara questions why we do not assume that the honey was already hefker (ownerless) as the owner knew it would be gone in a minute and gave up ownership of it in which case it can be considered acquired by the wine owner, as can be inferred from braita? to resolve this, they limit the case in the Mishna. The Gemara then questions the halakha in the braita based on a different braita which seems to contradict. How are they reconciled?

"Thanks for paving the way for Talmud Torah in our family!" If one recognizes items belonging to them in someone's house and the owner of the house claims they purchased them, the owner of the house takes an oath about the purchase price and returns the item to the original owner for the value of the item. But this is only if it is known that the person was robbed. If not, there is a concern that the claimant sold the item and now regrets the sale and wants the item back. The Gemara asks why knowing the person was robbed is enough to allay the fear that they are just trying to renege on a sale? Rav explains that there needs to be some sort of circumstantial evidence that the item in question was stolen. If a thief sells a stolen item, can the one who was robbed demand the item back from the buyer or only from the thief? Rav and Rabbi Yochanan disagree. Four explanations are brought to explain the basis of their debate. The rabbis instituted takanat hashuk to protect buyers. The takana is that if someone claims that the item is theirs, they can take it back but they need to reimburse the buyer the amount that they paid so that the buyer does not need to find the thief who sold him/her the item. In what cases does the takana apply/not apply? If two people are walking and one has honey in a jar that is breaking, and the other has wine (less expensive than honey) and the wine owner dumps the wine to help save the honey, what compensation does the wine owner receive? The Gemara questions why we do not assume that the honey was already hefker (ownerless) as the owner knew it would be gone in a minute and gave up ownership of it in which case it can be considered acquired by the wine owner, as can be inferred from braita? to resolve this, they limit the case in the Mishna. The Gemara then questions the halakha in the braita based on a different braita which seems to contradict. How are they reconciled?

Dans une lettre, plusieurs organisations et personnalités haïtiennes mettent en garde le président du comité de sanctions de l'ONU. Elles s'inquiètent de possibles omissions, volontaires ou involontaires, de noms de personnes soupçonnées d'implication dans le financement des gangs en Haïti. Cette lettre est à la Une du site d'information Alterpresse. Son rédacteur en chef, Gotson Pierre, précise que les auteurs de la lettre « soupçonnent que des millions auraient été versés à des lobbyistes afin de supprimer leur nom » de cette liste de sanctions, dont la publication est « imminente ». Gotson Pierre explique que sur cette liste figureront les noms « des personnes impliquées en Haïti dans le financement de gangs, le blanchiment des avoirs, la corruption en vertu d'une résolution adoptée, il y a un an ». Les sanctions prévoient des gels ciblés des avoirs, des interdictions de voyager et des embargos sur les armes.Venezuela : la primaire de l'opposition suspendueLa Cour suprême a suspendu, lundi 30 octobre 2023, tous les effets de la primaire de l'opposition, qui s'est déroulée le 22 octobre et a vu la victoire de Maria Corina Machado. Le gouvernement dénonçait un scrutin frauduleux. Le protocole de vote est mis en doute, un député avait porté plainte devant la justice. La Cour s'est déclarée compétente pour juger ce vote et, en attendant, a donc suspendu cette primaire. Elle exige désormais de la Commission nationale des primaires les listes d'émargement. L'opposition craint désormais que ces listes soient utilisées pour surveiller les personnes ayant participé au vote.Pérou : un village des Andes prisé des IsraéliensPisac, 10 000 habitants, culmine à près de 3 000 mètres dans les Andes, entouré de ruines incas. Son calme, son ambiance, séduit depuis des années des touristes israéliens. Après leur service militaire, beaucoup décident de voyager et se rendent, de plus en plus, en Amérique latine. Omer a 27 ans et a passé 5 ans dans l'armée israélienne. Rencontré par notre correspondante Alice Campaignolle, il dit avoir rejoint un ami à Pisac : « C'est un petit village, il y a peu de monde ici et c'est très calme. Et… parfois, oui, tu as juste besoin de faire une pause ». Une pause pour s'éloigner du conflit israélo-palestinien, qui fait rage, à nouveau, depuis près d'un mois.Certains Israéliens ont même décidé de s'installer durablement dans les Andes : « Chaque fois que je rentre en Israël, je ressens le conflit à nouveau. Je pense que c'est pour ça que j'ai choisi de vivre en Amérique du Sud. Ici, je peux marcher dans la rue sans penser que quelqu'un pourrait venir et me poignarder ». De plus, le village de Pisac est connu dans le monde de l'ésotérisme, beaucoup d'étrangers y viennent pour y consommer des plantes hallucinogènes comme l'ayahuasca. Des retraites de yoga sont aussi proposées. Des pratiques que recherchent certains Israéliens pour guérir de leurs traumatismes liés au conflit au Proche-Orient. « Ce n'est qu'en partant d'Israël qu'on peut prendre du recul et commencer à soigner ces blessures, si on en a envie », conclut Nitzan.Le journal de la 1èreL'Université des Antilles entre dans le prestigieux classement international de Shanghaï.

Ever wondered about the boundless potential of education? In our ongoing pursuit of reimagining education and reshaping traditional learning paradigms.... We've brought you captivating conversations with trailblazers like Ted Dintersmith, James Fellowes, and many more... But what if I told you that there's more? More to the story of bridging the gap for students and adults who face barriers to accessing traditional pathways. Today's exploration takes us deep into the heart of innovative education and career pathways. As we ponder the question of equity and opportunity, we'll continue that dialogue from a unique vantage point... with someone whose journey will leave you in awe – Nitzan Pelman, the visionary force behind ClimbHire. Hold onto your seats, because as you listen, you'll discover how ClimbHire opens doors to learning tracks that transcend traditional norms. Join us in this immersive episode, where Nitzan's journey unfolds in her own words. ----- The Transformative Power of Relationships "Once you get a label, then you live into that label and it's really hard to not live into it."--Nitzan Pelman In our conversation, Nitzan Pelman shares her personal experience of being labeled as a "special ed" child in her early education. This label led to low expectations from teachers and peers, and she found herself in a cycle of limited learning experiences. She describes the demoralizing environment of separate classrooms for labeled students, where they internalized the label and formed a self-deprecating identity. The result was a lack of motivation to excel academically, leading to a deep desire to distance herself from school. But her transformative journey highlights the impact of personal relationships on shaping one's capabilities and mindset. "I invested the time, and I invested the energy and I invested and pushed through those feelings of shame."--Nitzan Pelman She discusses how her relationship with her boyfriend, who had a deep love for learning, introduced her to a different way of thinking. Being surrounded by his intellectual circle challenged her to reevaluate her own potential. This experience led to a profound shift in her perception of herself and her capacity to learn. Rethinking Education for the Critical Thinking Economy While technology offers new opportunities for learning and collaboration... Nitzan emphasizes that critical thinking remains an essential skill in an increasingly automated and outsourced knowledge economy. She discusses the role of emerging technologies like ChatGPT in the education sector. "The art of writing is really the art of thinking, and if you can't think critically, then you're going to have a hard time doing anything that's valuable in society."--Nitzan Pelman Nitzan challenges the notion that technology can replace core skills like writing and critical analysis. Instead, she advocates for a reimagined education system that focuses on developing strong critical thinking skills to navigate the evolving complexities of the modern world. Building Social Capital for Economic Mobility Nitzan highlights the disparities in access to networks and relationships that often hinder individuals from low-income and non-traditional backgrounds. "No one wants to be that first black person on the staff... it has to be organic, and it has to be real, and it has to be...

I've been on a small break, but I'm excited to be back with episode 82 of the GMI Rocket show with Nitzan Yudan, Founder and CEO of a really exciting global mobility tech company, Benivo! Just in case you haven't already heard of Benivo, in a nutshell, it bills itself as an end-to-end, single platform solution for Global Mobility teams to manage their globally mobile workforce and mobility programs. As for Nitzan, he started his career in tech back in the early 2000s in Israel. After graduating from Ben Gurion University with a degree in Industrial Engineering and Management he worked in technical roles at a few companies, including one of Israel's biggest banks, Bank Hapoalim. After a few years, Nitzan went back to school, this time to London Business School, received an MBA in Finance and Entrepreneurship, and went on to work at American Express. But as with most entrepreneurs, he had a calling to build something. So not long after he started his role at AmEx, in 2010, he launched what would become the Benivo we know today. So, here's what Nitzan and I are going to be talking about: Nitzan's early life and why he went on to study engineering. What led Nitzan to go back to school and both study and work in finance and business. What inspired Nitzan to come up with Benivo and leave his full-time job to build it. Early days of building Benivo and how the company has grown over the years What Benivo does today, what's next, and Nitzan's vision for the future of mobility tech And more!

Welcome to another episode of Faster Than Normal. Glad to have you. It is a Friday here. We're recording on a different day for a change, but it is kind of gray and gloomy outside, so what better thing to do than be inside talking to cool people? Today we have Conrad Sanders. Conrad has an interesting backstory. He's masali ADHD and he runs a company, as he puts it, a charming team of strategic word slingers known as the Creative Copywriter. His company is a fast growing strategy and copywriting agency that blends art with science to help bold brands sell more stuff. He has clients like Adidas, Hyundai, TikTok, A, Superdrug, PTC, Thompson, Reuters, VMware so names, you know, he tries to break the boundaries of corporate dullness. I love that. What do you do when you run a creative company and you are ADHD? I have discovered this when I was running Help a Reporter Out about twelve years ago now, problem is, you're so creative tend to forget the day to day. And so I want to ask Conrad and I want you guys to hear how he handles that. So welcome, Konrad. Good to have you. Konrad Sanders [00:01:50]: Yeah, thanks for having me. I'll just say that I'm across the pond. You might be able to tell from my accent. And believe it or not, it is a rare sunny day here on this. Peter Shankman [00:02:00]: I was going to say yeah, I figured it would be cloudy and rainy just like it is here, but no, you have a sunny day in London. Nice. Konrad Sanders [00:02:05]: Yeah, we've had the worst weather this year possible, but the skies have opened up and the sun is shining, so I can't complain. Peter Shankman [00:02:14]: I'm hoping it stays that way. I'm going to be there on Sunday, so please keep it that way if you could. Konrad Sanders [00:02:18]: I'll do my best. Peter Shankman [00:02:19]: All right, so tell me about running a company when you're ADHD, because I know my story, but every story is different. Tell me your backstory. When were you diagnosed? The whole thing? Konrad Sanders [00:02:29]: Yeah, I mean, I think if I tell you my backstory, I think it's probably best to start with the backstory of the business. Like how that kind of started because I was only diagnosed a year and a half ago. Okay. I think that the diagnosis once I got it, it made a lot of sense, right? Once I kind of understood more about ADHD, looking back at my journey, my life journey, things made a lot more sense. It explained a lot, essentially. But shall I start with kind of the beginnings of the creative copywriter? I'll try to be succinct story and how I've got to where I am today. So I think it all helps you understand my journey and where I'm at and how we operate now. So I'll start off the uni left uni. I studied philosophy at Uni. I was one of the kind of guy that didn't go to found it very hard to go to lectures when it came to writing essays. I always left it literally to the last day and would drink loads of coffee. And I was good at kind of cutting corners and good at writing. Right? And I was good at cramming things in. Obviously, this is a sort of trait of having ADHD, leaving things the last minute and only being good at working under pressure, but being extremely good once, I'm very pressured again. I didn't know at the time I had ADHD. I just thought I was an incredible kind of procrastinator. I just didn't really understand why I could never start a project until it was, like, right at the last very minute. So Left Uni went traveling in Australia, all around Australia, met my wife well, she's now my wife, a girlfriend at the time, and she's also the managing director of the agency. So she's played a very important role in my life for many reasons. She also has a very different brain to me, to mine even. And anyway, we met traveling in Australia. She's from Israel originally. So I ended up there after two years of being in Australia, traveling Southeast Asia on a shoestring budget, literally, and ended up in her parents house in Israel without a work visa because it took a while to apply for one. And that's when I basically discovered the art and science of copywriting and SEO and kind of combined those things to sort of start a business and start an online business, which has kind of grown since Than and later in that journey. So I was kind of very good at kind of the sales, the marketing, the ideas. And actually, what some people don't know about me and my kind of entrepreneurial journey, which I'll share for you guys, is that that wasn't the only business idea I had. Right? There were plenty of the things, and I definitely had shiny object syndrome. And early on in the journey of our agency and I started as a freelancer, quickly kind of wanted to grow it and managed to kind of turn Than into a collective, gradually was building an agency. But I had what we call what I call shiny object syndrome, right? I was like, anything that came my way, I wanted to jump on and was hugely optimistic with time, which is again a common trait and terrible with time. So there was a point at which, believe it or not, I was kind of a co founder of, I believe, five different businesses, right, because there would be friends going, hey, why don't you join the Brcmo for this? And it made no sense, right? It didn't make sense. You can't really focus, and focus is extremely important as a business owner. And I gradually kind of understood that I was burning out, basically, I was doing too many things, spreading myself way too thin, doing far too many things, and then kind of matured a bit and understood I need to focus on the agency. That's the only thing making money. There's lots of potential there and a key milestone, right? A key ingredient in this sort of recipe or this journey, was my wife joining in 2017, and she has a very different brain to me. And she was in the NGO world prior to that, trying to solve the conflicts in her region. Didn't manage to do so. Kind of felt disillusioned with that whole NGO sort of world. And I said, hey, why don't you join us? It's when we're a small kind of, I think, a few person agency at the time and using freelancers, why don't you join? I know you're good with project management, that kind of stuff, right? You've got an operational type brain, so we could probably do with a bit of that. She joined just part time to fill in for someone, and the first week we were just clashing high, massive arguments. Why is it so chaotic? Why is it so chaotic? And I said, I was like, Babe, that's just agency life, you have to get used to it. And there was maybe a slither of truth in what I was saying, but for the most part it was because I was running it with my ADHD brain. And my second in command was also a creative and further along on that kind of spectrum, let's say. And we were going around putting out fires in a very charming way. We're very good at putting out fires, but rather than preempting them, rather than building process, right? And there were loads of parts of the business that I just wouldn't even look at, like finances. My brain wasn't interested. I wasn't interested in that. I was interested in the big ideas, the schmoozing, the charming, that kind of stuff. And there were holes, there were gaping holes in business, which I didn't even see at the time because my brain was kind of and I was closed off to it, I didn't want to see it. So things like money owed, right, I thought was money in the bank and there was debt, right? There were people owed us money and I was like, oh, yeah, they'll pay it, it's fine. And I didn't want to chase them up because I wasn't interested in the invoicing and things like that. So gaping holes which my wife discovered and she kind of naturally lent into that side of the business. What happened was the became the integrator and I was the visionary. And it actually worked really well after we got past the blazing rouse and kind of found our strengths and kind of limitations. And she helped me really understand where mine were and are. And she kind of obviously knows me on a personal level. So kind of it made a lot of sense. She started together with me building structure for the business, like processes lasering on the building process and making sure that we follow through and those processes are followed through. And gradually what happened was we built structure and then we started to grow that's properly. When we started growing as an agency, we've hit 40% growth since then and we're kind of approaching the 2 million mark now. I owe a lot of that to having someone like NIT Sam, Marga Hart and her very different kind of brain complementing. Peter Shankman [00:09:46]:  Let me interrupt you for a second because that actually brings up a really interesting point. You work and partner with someone both personally and professionally yes. Konrad Sanders [00:09:55]: Right. Peter Shankman [00:09:55]: Who has the complete opposite brain that you do. I think there is not a listener in this podcast who doesn't want to know five ways to make that work, because that is not easy. Forget about just one. Like living with someone with a different brain or working with someone with a different brain and you've chosen to do both things. And the fact that your partner hasn't thrown themselves out of a window yet is when you're ADHD it is difficult. We don't often talk about how difficult it can be for the other person. Konrad Sanders [00:10:34]: Yeah. Peter Shankman [00:10:34]:  So tell us what makes it work? Konrad Sanders [00:10:38]:  I think that's a great point to make. And I write LinkedIn posts about my ADHD quite a lot and I actually wanted to write one specifically on that. There's a lot of neurodiversity awareness at the moment, which is brilliant and it's great. And I almost want to do kind of partners of people who have neurodiversity awareness because yeah, and you said, like, she hasn't thrown herself out of a window yet. But I'll be honest, it's come close to that. But again, both based on our work life and personal life and often they're kind of woven into each other naturally. So how have we avoided that? I think, first of all, awareness of how my brain works. I did get diagnosed a couple of years ago. That made a big difference, even for myself, because in terms of understanding really where those we knew where the limitations were. We knew what I wasn't good at. Right. But there wasn't an explanation. And I think you know as to why. And I think when you understand why and I am on medication, and that's definitely helped. I also have ADHD coaching and that's really helped as well because it's someone else who's an accountability partner rather than just my partner in my personal life that's been really crucial and it's really been life changing for me having an ADHD coach because at work we built these processes, right? So there's something about building a business where even with my ADHD brain I really wanted to succeed. I know process is important and I know than following is important as much as my brain doesn't want to. And we have just this lean management approach, we take this agile approach based on like Gemba Kaizen, the Japanese business management philosophy where when there are hiccups, we call them Oopsies. Whenever there's something inefficient a hiccup, something has not quite gone wrong. Rather than blaming each other or blaming team members, we write it down on a slack thread and two weeks later we tackle it in this level ten meeting where we look at the problem, what was the root of the problem, how do we then preempt that issue for next time? Let's work it into a process and who in the team is going to take care of that? Two weeks later it's done, right? So it's this very very lean approach to kind of we call it the quest for perfection. You can ever be perfect bu if you're on that quest, it really really helps. And that was something we installed quite early. And I think that back to your question. I think that's one of the ways where we've perhaps avoided killing each other because we have this approach to business where if something's gone wrong and it might have been caused by me and it might be caused by something that hasn't been conducive to how my brain works, but it's written down and we tackle it and we think about what's the process that would be good for avoiding that. So I'll give you an example back in the day, for many years I'm in charge of getting the business in, right? Nita is in charge of making sure we deliver, you know, great results essentially to simplify it. And back in the day I used to do the proposals and a proposal is a project that has many different parts and that is not good. I'm not great at doing that, especially when it comes to time management, way, way too optimistic and also I would hyper focus on the wrong things, right? My brain wouldn't want to write the proposal, I'd be sitting there spending I could spend 4 hours adjusting the design of one slide because I like how things look and I wanted to look perfect and I'd hyper focus and what would happen is I would spend many evenings literally like until three or 04:00 A.m. Working on proposals and burning out and it wasn't good, but I thought oh, it's just because it had to take that long and there was the deadline tomorrow, there's no two ways about it and the other team members perhaps are not doing the right thing. I'm really pedantic and I have to kind of go in and change things. When we kind of took this much more process driven, agile approach to kind of uncovering why, what's going wrong and why and what's the root of the problem. One kind of look at it from Nitsang going in and looking than process the could uncover those holes and realize right there's A, B and C, there's this issue, we don't have a good process and Conrad is not great at doing that. So let's give it to another team member and then jump on a meeting with me and I will go through it and do you see what I mean? We created structure and process whereby the bits that I'm not good at, we're delegating and bringing me at the right time. And it was again, life changing transformative for the business and really, really crucial. So that's definitely one of the ways I say is like taking this, I mean, Gemba Kaisen is this book. I recommend this approach to business, which I think is probably one of the main ways which has helped us in our work life, really play to our strengths and really build structure that works not just for me, but other team members too. And in our private life, I'll be honest, that took a lot longer, right? That's where I feel like up until recently, even at work, I've been really good. Great at work, great at what I do. And we built this structure where I can really ADHD has superpowers as well, right. The amount of ideas I have kind of really brilliant just to blow my trumpet, like brilliant ideas in terms of branding and marketing and what we can do to kind of drive those forward, but the limitations as well. But I feel like I've been doing really well at work and then suddenly when it comes to after work hours, it all goes out the window. I don't have that structure, it's just this big void. And yeah, it has been difficult relationship wise because Nitzan traditionally has taken on way more than me. It's been very one sided relationship outside of work. She books the holidays, she plans them. Like when it comes to cooking, she'll buy the ingredients and plan. And I would take kind of I'll cook on this day and the other, but I haven't prepared bu. It'll be 07:00 p.m.. I don't know. I haven't got the ingredients. I don't know what I'm going to cook. And it causes friction. And that's just one example of the kind of way that friction in a relationship. Peter Shankman [00:17:22]: We try to keep these to 15 minutes because ADHD but tell people how we can find you and we'll definitely have you back. Konrad Sanders [00:17:29]: Yeah, I go off on tangents. Peter Shankman [00:17:31]: No, it's cool. I love it. I love it. I can relate. Konrad Sanders [00:17:34]: Yeah. So find me. LinkedIn is the best place. I'd say. Comrade McKay. Sanders. S-A-N-D-E-R-S-I talk about ADHD on there. I talk about copywriting and content strategy, I talk about my agency journey. And, yeah, there's so much more to talk about, but as you know, I will go off on many different tangents and not be very succeed, but I hope there's been some value and some interesting interest there in what we've chatted about today. Peter Shankman [00:18:02]: No question about it. Really appreciate it, guys. We're talking to Conrad Sanders. Really interesting stuff on how to survive ADHD. When your partner doesn't have it, you do, and you work with them as well. My God, that is just I can't even get over that. That's very impressive. We will definitely have you back, guys.
