The Nexus Podcast
I Cut Through The Noise, And Found My Calling. Building & Scaling A Business & Living Up To Your Own Potential (Feat: Maxi Rose)
Maxi was somebody I reached out to before I even launched my first episode. At the time, I had little to show for myself, and Maxi declined my request for a conversation.
Fast forward, and gratefully we managed to lock down a time to meet and talk.
Maxi is a larger than life character and we enjoyed a fascinating conversation where he shared personal opinions and experiences on a broad range of topics, including building and scaling a business, dealing with personal setbacks and early childhood hardships, learning how to cut out the noise and stay focused on the end goal and perhaps most importantly, a valuable lesson in learning to build a healthy relationship with the ever growing demands on our attention from technology.
I hope you enjoy and benefit from listening to this conversation as much as I enjoyed having it.

He reflects on his father’s legacy, the impact of his mother’s illness, and the meaning found through faith, community, and purpose.With messages for the community, for orphans, and a deeply personal reflection on naming his son after his father, this conversation is a poignant exploration of grief, healing, and the quiet holiness of supporting those in pain.If you can, kindly consider supporting the important work of Mekimi:https://mekimi.co.uk/donate---I'm grateful for your feedback! • WhatsApp +4477 466 70 691 • Email hi@nexuspodcast.uk Until next time 👋🏽
27. Licence to Inspire. The Mind Behind The Movement. (Feat: Rabbi Benjy Morgan)
49:04||Ep. 27Welcome back friends, this week I am delighted to bring you my conversation with Rabbi Benjy Morgan, CEO of the Jewish Learning Exchange, commonly known as the JLE.As CEO, Rabbi Benjy Morgan is responsible for the innovation and strategy of the JLE in the 21st century. He oversees education across the numerous different departments in which the JLE operates. He guides dozens of dedicated staff and the myriad of weekly programs that service over 1000 individuals each week. There were two particular stories that I wanted to bring up in my conversation with Rabbi Morgan, but some last minute changes to Rabbi Morgan’s diary meant that we ended up recording this conversation a few short hours before a flight out of the country. Instead, I have appended recordings of these stories, one at the beginning, a moving and beautiful narrative that gives us insight into the miraculous story or Rabbi Morgan’s family, and one at the end, which is an account of Rabbi Morgan’s own personal miracle story which took place in 2019, with a message for Chanukah as we enter the month of Kislev.I hope you enjoy ---I'm grateful for your feedback! • WhatsApp +4477 466 70 691 • Email hi@nexuspodcast.uk Until next time 👋🏽

25. Homeward Bound. Reflections On A Legacy Of Leadership (Feat: Rabbi Joseph Dweck)
01:11:20||Ep. 25Welcome to the final episode of The Nexus podcast for this year. This week's episode is really something special and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to sit down with Rabbi Joseph Dweck, somebody who has impacted the UK Jewish communities in so many ways over the past 12 years of his leadership and guidance and I highly recommend for people who want to explore more over by Rabbi Dweck's teachings to go online and search for his classes. In addition to his years of service to both Shuls and schools in the Us, in 2013, Rabbi Joseph Dweck was elected Senior Rabbi of the S&P Sephardi Community with a stunning 270-4 vote, later inaugurated at the historic Bevis Marks Shul. Since then, Rabbi Dweck has become one of the most prominent Jewish voices in the UK — earning himself a number of prestigious positions and eloquently and artfully interfacing between the Jewish community and The wider UK public at large.It is a true honour to have spent time in Rabbi Dweck's home, having this conversation a few short months before he and his family relocate to their new home in Israel.
