“I’m a sales person for a fashion company, and on the side I became a personal trainer. I love fashion, but I always wanted to venture off and do something on my own. Working out has always been a hobby of mine, so I figured I could turn this hobby into my own business. I run around from place to place, but that’s sort of how I love it… I’m not stuck in a little cubicle. I get to meet so many people, and do something that I really love. The majority of my clients are Jewish; I guess that’s what happens when you’re part of the beautiful circle! I train one person, and then they refer me to another person. I have religious groups, and secular groups, and I’ve learned so much about Judaism just from training these different circles. Every time I finish a session, I learn something new. Being with these groups, they give me a new perspective on Judaism, and they’re helping me guide my decisions on how I want to practice it. It makes me want to do more for the Jewish community, and it makes me want to experience more. Whether it’s having Shabbat dinners, or turning off my phone on Saturdays, it definitely makes me want to change traditional aspects.”
