B”H Are you into exercise, running, perhaps? Or maybe you want to get more into it in 2019? What do you wear to exercise? Would you like to have the option of wearing clothing that is less revealing, while being super comfortable, looking and feeling great? My guest today has you covered! You’re listening to Jewish Latin Princess, I’m Yael Trusch your host. I have Chana Rachel Weinberg on the show. Chana Rachel, a young Israeli Entrepreneur, Fashion Designer, is the founder of a colorful brand of modest sportswear, Chanabana, and she will tell us all about it today. How she got started, why, what is her life as an entrepreneur like; and give us some inspiration for those of us who need a little push pursuing our goals and dreams. But, before I bring her on, I want to say that I’ve missed being on the show. As many of you know, I was away for a while on a family trip. It was actually my son’s Bar Mitzvah, so the month of January was my month to take care of that, and then to spend some amazing quality time with my family in the Land of Israel. While I was there, I had the chance to meet some of my amazing guests. If you follow me on Facebook you got a glimpse of that. I’m also preparing for a new venture, also working on content for JWRP – Jewish Women’s Rennaisance Project – so a lot going on, B”H. I will keep you posted. I also wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for the nice emails and instant messages via Instagram, that I’ve received lately – during this one month hiatus, particularly, – sharing your impressions of the show. I truly appreciate it and I’m grateful for you, the show’s listeners, becauase that’s why I’m here. I want to share one of those recent emails. I actually received it while I was up north in the spiritual city of Tsfat, Israel, and here a listener, said “I want to say what pleasure I get listening to your podcast. I love the interviews, the depth and breadth of everyone you speak with always amazes me! I love hearing about all types of people and the different things they do, the different ways they think about things but then realizing how alike we all are as Jewish women. Also, the way you speak with unaffiliated Jews in that gentle and caring way is so inspiring. Your podcast also changed my life because…” Well, turns out that this listener started working one-on-one with one of my guests thanks to the interview I did with her. That is just one of many emails I’ve received and I thank you for those warm words. Maybe I’ll share some more of those in the future. But now, to another woman who expressed incredibly warm words, Chana, my guest, who gave me the most beautiful blessing after we got off the recording (you won’t be able to hear on this recording), for it was her Hebrew birthday on the day we got on the mic together. Chana Rachel, Thank You, I really appreciate it. And now, lets get you, ladies, to the warm and lovely, Chana Rachel Weinberg.
