About this episode
Current Time.Thank you for reading and listening to my show. A year ago, I would have never believed that my stories and podcasts could reach a global audience without extensive marketing campaigns. I never imagined my stories would spark even the slightest interest in China, Singapore, or Brazil. Moreover, there was not a slight chance I would have believed that people from Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, or Iran would read my stories or listen to the podcasts. I was surprised to see an audience from Peru, Ecuador, Nigeria, South Africa, Ethiopia, Kenya, Gabon, Senegal, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Malaysia, or Indonesia, since I didn't expect people there to know what Substack is. When I talk to people from the US or my homeland, Israel, most of them have never heard of Substack. Even when I briefly explain, they do not understand what this platform is all about or why people come just to read what others write. In the past 12 months, people from 92 countries and 36 US states have read and listened to my stories and podcasts. The worldwide audience is thirsty for more and eager to learn about different cultures. You are witnessing the power of stories and how we can use them to unite people and build friendships. By supporting the orchestra of stories, each of us can make a meaningful difference and change the world.My dream is to build an orchestra of 195 countries with you.In every nation, one voice will rise first, a listener, a messenger, a bridge. That person will connect directly with me, so we can begin tuning this global orchestra together. From those first 195 connections, a new structure will slowly take shape, one that links us all in harmony across borders. It starts quietly, with a single note from each country, until the full sound of the world begins to form.The early adopters who join me will get to know me in person and help shape the journey of the orchestra of stories. This band will be the greatest band this world has ever known.I learned early in life that “Knowledge, will, and dedication will turn the impossible into possible.”Despite everything I’ve been through in my life’s journey, I’m still a dreamer. I am an optimist and believe I can do the impossible. I hope you believe it too. This is the future of entertainment and education, and I’m creating this future with you.Whether it's a coincidence, karma, or perfect timing, I was invited to speak about The Liat Show for the first time as a panelist. This side gig has become a real thing that people are curious about. So if you’re in San Francisco or the Bay Area on October 23 or know people living in SF or the Bay Area, tell them about the event and why they should attend. If you’re interested in attending, you can find the details in the link to the event: The Innovation Bridge: Startup Nation to SF.
