Need something to listen to while commuting to Tel Aviv or taking your morning walk around the neighborhood? A good business podcast can be as inspirational and practical as a coaching session or a conference talk. And the best part? You don’t have to go anywhere to get it. We’ve rounded up some of the best business-oriented podcasts for olim, each offering a different flavor of inspiration, strategy and practical advice.
The Jewish Entrepreneur Podcast, Debbie Sassen
Debbie Sassen, a certified life and money coach and multi-6-figure business owner, delivers an episode each week on how to build wealth without compromising your Jewish values. She talks about mindset blocks, money trauma, subconscious fears of rejection—and ties it all to your bottom line.
Aliyah Money Talks, Aaron Shuchatowitz

Connected for Real Podcast, Bat-Chen Grossman
This podcast is for religious women juggling business, marriage, motherhood and mitzvot. Rebbetzin Bat-Chen Grossman speaks directly to women who want their lives to feel cohesive and meaningful, not like a juggling act.
Second Chapter Careers, Sari Holtz
