My Story

Where we start
doesn't define where we finish

In this talk, I invite you on a journey into my personal story. From the night I crossed the border as a refugee from southern Lebanon, to the moment I landed in a completely foreign reality in a religious city in Israel. I'll share openly the moments of crisis I went through as a child fighting to find belonging, with no language, facing a different culture and a completely different mentality.

I'll show you how those very struggles of adjustment and identity crises became the engine of action that took me to the front of the stage and the heart of Israeli society. From that place, I built mental resilience and discipline that let me break through glass ceilings.

Today, as an entrepreneur and speaker, I'll show you how engaging in sports gave me practical, everyday tools. I'll share how persistence and determination build inner strength that drives forward, and lets you achieve goals in every area of life.

My story — from Lebanon to Israel
A moment I waited 25 years for. A journey that started in Lebanon and continues today in Israel — I worked with industry professionals and together we wrote and sharpened my story and that of the Lebanese community in Israel.

I arrived as a child from Lebanon and, in a single moment, became a refugee in a religious city in Israel.

Escape to the border
I remember being a small child when my father walked in and told us all: grab a bag and get into the cars. That's how we found ourselves on a long drive — one I only later understood was an escape toward the border with Israel.

Every time I met someone new, they were surprised to hear I'm a Lebanese living in Israel. It sparked curiosity and questions, and so I found myself telling my story in every social setting.
