Do a Favour for your Soul and dance in the glitter that is Israel

Let us know what you think of each episode when you have had a listen #dogood [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2468381/fan_mail/new] In this deeply moving episode of the Do Good Podcast, we meet Sarah Marco, a woman whose story is shaped by both profound loss and extraordinary purpose. Born in the UK and now calling Sydney home for over two decades, Sarah’s world was turned upside down just days before the events of October 7 attacks, when she tragically lost both of her parents on the same day. While navigating unimaginable grief, the unfolding crisis in Israel ignited something deeply personal within her. Her connection to Israel runs through her very roots. Her parents met there in 1967, volunteering in the aftermath of the Six-Day War. So when history echoed once again, Sarah instinctively knew where she needed to be. Within months, Sarah and her sister arrived at Ben Gurion Airport and immersed themselves in service. From working on farms to supporting hospitals, hosting barbecues for soldiers, and partnering with initiatives like Citrus and Salt, they gave their time, energy, and hearts to those on the front lines. But what truly defines Sarah’s journey is not just what she did, it is how she did it. In hospital wards and rehabilitation centres, she sat with injured soldiers, listening, sharing, and connecting. What emerges from her story is something far deeper than volunteering. It is healing in its fullest sense. Healing for the soldiers. Healing for a nation. And healing for herself. Despite carrying immense personal pain, Sarah radiates warmth, humour, and perspective. She speaks about her four trips to Israel since October 7 not as sacrifice, but as something profoundly restorative, describing it simply as: “Doing a favour for your soul.” This episode is a powerful reminder of the human capacity to turn grief into meaning, and pain into purpose. Expect laughter, tears, and a story that will stay with you long after it ends. Don't forget to leave a review and tell us what you think :) #DOGOOD

Turning the Tables... A voice for the Voiceless

Let us know what you think of each episode when you have had a listen #dogood [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2468381/fan_mail/new] This week, we do something a little different. The host becomes the guest. In a powerful role reversal, Yocheved Kim Rutenberg, founder of Sword of Iron, steps into the hosting seat to interview Brad Solomon. What unfolds is raw, real, and deeply personal. Brad shares his journey of travelling to Israel nine times since the beginning of the war, not just to witness, but to stand alongside its people and serve where it matters most. From volunteering on the ground to advocating for the voiceless, especially the animals, this is a story of identity, purpose, and action. This isn’t just about travel. It’s about connection. It’s about answering a call. Through stories of Shanti, soldier stops, and fully immersing into Israeli life, Brad reflects on what it truly means to show up. No rigid plans. No perfect itinerary. Just a willingness to go, to give, and to be present. Because sometimes, the journey doesn’t begin when you arrive. It begins the moment you book the flight. Expect honesty. Expect heart. And yes, expect a few laughs along the way. Tune in for a different kind of episode. One that reminds us that doing good often starts with simply showing up.

Healing, Energy, Identity and Israel: A Deep Conversation with Ella Ray

Let us know what you think of each episode when you have had a listen #dogood [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2468381/fan_mail/new] In this deeply thoughtful and spiritually rich episode of The Do Good Podcast, I’m joined by Ella Ray, an energy healer from Israel whose story, work, and perspective sit at the intersection of healing, identity, resilience, spirituality, and inner transformation. With roots that are both Colombian and Israeli, Ella brings a beautifully layered perspective to what it means to live between cultures, hold space for others, and navigate life through both intuition and emotional truth. What unfolds in this conversation is not simply a discussion about “energy healing” as a concept, but a much deeper exploration of what it means to feel, to heal, to regulate, and to come back to yourself in a world that often feels noisy, heavy, disconnected, and uncertain. Throughout the episode, we explore what energy healing really is, beyond the labels, beyond the clichés, and beyond the scepticism that can sometimes surround this work. Ella shares her own understanding of healing as something far more nuanced and human than many people realise. We talk about the body, the nervous system, emotional residue, spiritual connection, and the unseen ways in which stress, fear, trauma, and survival can become stored within us over time. One of the most powerful threads in this conversation is the reality of trying to stay connected to yourself while living in a country that has endured such prolonged pressure and instability. We talk openly about Israel, about the emotional and energetic weight that so many people are carrying, and about how collective fear, grief, uncertainty, and trauma can affect not just the mind, but the body, the heart, and the spirit too. This episode touches on the idea that healing in a place like Israel is not abstract or performative. It is deeply practical. It is about survival, grounding, emotional regulation, and finding moments of peace, softness, and connection even when the world outside feels loud and fractured. Ella offers a compassionate and intuitive lens on what it means to hold your centre in difficult times and why healing work matters so much, especially in environments where people are living with chronic stress, vigilance, and emotional exhaustion. We speak about how easy it is in modern life to become disconnected from our bodies, to override our inner knowing, and to move through life from the neck up, all thought, productivity, and survival, with very little true presence. Ella speaks beautifully about the importance of reconnecting to the body, listening inwardly, and allowing healing to be something felt, not just intellectually understood. This is also a conversation about permission. Permission to slow down. Permission to feel. Permission to acknowledge that not all healing is linear, logical, or visible. And permission to recognise that healing is not about becoming someone new, but often about returning to who you were before life taught you to disconnect from yourself. Whether you are deeply spiritual, cautiously curious, sceptical but open-minded, or simply someone trying to make sense of stress, emotion, and what it means to stay whole in a fractured world, this episode offers something meaningful. It is grounded, honest, expansive, and full of insight. This is a conversation about energy, but also about humanity. About what we carry. About what we absorb. About what we need to release. And about the quiet, powerful work of becoming more present, more open, more attuned, and more alive. A beautiful, soulful, and deeply resonant conversation with a woman whose work invites us to listen more closely, live more intuitively, Don't forget to leave a review and tell us what you think :) #DOGOOD

Why This Passover Feels Different

Let us know what you think of each episode when you have had a listen #dogood [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2468381/fan_mail/new] This week’s episode of The Do Good Podcast is different. No guest. No conversation. Just a moment to pause… and to feel what is really happening right now. As Jews around the world prepare to sit down for Passover, telling the ancient story of survival, exile, and liberation… that story no longer feels distant. It feels present. Because across the world, antisemitism is rising again. Not quietly. Not subtly. But in ways that feel familiar, unsettling, and deeply personal. And in Israel, millions of people are not watching a war unfold. They are living inside it. Sirens. Missiles. Sleepless nights. Children asking questions no child should ever have to ask. This is not a headline. It is a nervous system. And in the middle of it all, life continues. People still show up. They still care. They still rescue. They still feed the animals shaking in fear from explosions they cannot understand. They still open doors. Still carry each other. Still choose humanity… even when the world feels like it is hardening. This episode is a reflection on all of that. On fear. On identity. On what it means to be Jewish right now. On what it means to stand with Jews. On what it means to hold compassion in a time when compassion feels selective. And on why Passover, this year, hits differently. Because this is a story about survival. And right now… that story is not just being told. It is being lived. A deeply personal episode about antisemitism, war, resilience, tenderness, and the quiet, defiant choice to keep doing good… even when the world feels like it is breaking. At its heart, this episode is about more than conflict. It is about memory, identity, tenderness, resilience, and moral courage. It is about what Passover means this year, when the themes of Jewish survival and freedom feel painfully immediate. And it is about what it means to keep choosing humanity, compassion, and goodness in a world that can feel increasingly hard, hostile, and numb. This is an honest and heartfelt reflection on antisemitism, war, fear, survival, and the quiet, stubborn acts of care that still matter, perhaps now more than ever.

Doing Good From New York to Be’eri

Let us know what you think of each episode when you have had a listen #dogood [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2468381/fan_mail/new] David Baden’s connection to Israel began back in 1983, when he studied at Tel Aviv University. Since then, Israel has never been far from his heart, with David returning almost every year and building a lifelong relationship with the land and its people. When October 7th happened, horror quickly turned into something deeper: a need to go, to bear witness, and to stand shoulder to shoulder with his brothers and sisters in Israel during one of the darkest moments in the country’s history. After multiple failed attempts to get there due to cancelled flights and airspace restrictions, David finally arrived in spring 2024 and spent three weeks volunteering across Israel, using the Sword of Iron community to find ways to help wherever he could. From farming with Leket, to packing food for soldiers and families, to helping rebuild kibbutzim, including meaningful time spent on Kibbutz Be’eri, David threw himself fully into the volunteer world, showing up each day with humility, purpose and heart. And when he returned home to New York City, his commitment didn’t stop. David became an activist on the streets of NYC, walking the city each day with a rucksack full of Bring Them Home stickers and spray paint, covering over anti-Israel posters and standing visibly and unapologetically with Israel. In doing so, he also came face to face with the very real antisemitism that had surfaced so openly in the city he calls home. This is a powerful and inspiring conversation about love for Israel, moral courage, and what it means to show up, both in the land itself and thousands of miles away.
