In this week’s episode, we sit down for a meaningful and inspiring conversation with Zalmen Leib Eisenberger, who opens up about losing his mother at just 16 years old — and how that pain ultimately became a mission of hope.

Zalmen Leib shares how one dream kept him going through it all: becoming an actor. We talk about his journey in the acting world, the challenges along the way, and what it really takes to stay focused when life hits hard.

We also discuss his volunteering with Mekimi, and how he turned both his time and talent into something bigger — bringing joy to kids in the hospital and creating moments of light where they matter most.

To close, we get into something everyone needs to hear: what to say (and what not to say) when visiting someone for Nichum Aveilim, including a powerful story that puts it all into perspective.

A real conversation about grief, purpose, hope, and the impact of simply showing up for others.
