Episode 181 - How A Wealth CEO Practices Bitachon In Business And Family
Manage episode 516939876 series 3654030
What if your work got easier the moment you stopped treating every prospect like your last lifeline? We sit down with CEO and long-time friend Mark Halpern to explore a counterintuitive truth: trust in the Creator doesn’t dull your edge; it sharpens your presence, calms your pitch, and makes service your unfair advantage.
We start by unpacking bitachon and emunah—trust and faith—as a practical framework for modern life. Mark shares how recognizing design over randomness reframes setbacks as guidance, not judgment. From there, we get tactical: the value of having a spiritual coach, carving one focused hour a week for learning, and adopting a weekly reset like Shabbat to unplug from tech and plug into family, gratitude, and quiet. Think of it as “club med for the soul,” a rhythm that restores attention and deepens relationships.
For entrepreneurs and professionals, we dig into the anxiety-sell loop and how to break it. When you act from trust, you stop gripping outcomes and start asking, How can I help this person? The shift changes body language, listening, and results. Mark also speaks openly about balancing effort with faith, the belief that provision is set, and why panic is not a growth strategy. We close with family: raising grounded kids through three daily practices—appreciation, prayer, and visible example—so values aren’t lectures, they’re lived.
If you’re ready to trade frantic hustle for focused action, to feed your soul with “infinite food” instead of more noise, this conversation offers clear steps and honest encouragement. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review with one practice you’ll try this week.
Until next time, have a spectacular day!
