From a young age, I've been drawn to assisting others. My journey in the helping profession began as a camp counselor, where I cherished the moments spent with my campers, offering a listening ear to their challenges with empathy and validation.
Over time, it became abundantly clear that helping and empowering others align with my inherent capabilities. Working with numerous clients has allowed me to appreciate the uniqueness of each individual's struggles and challenges.
The most gratifying aspect of my work is witnessing the transformative power of mindset breakthroughs in my clients. The joy they experience knowing that this pivotal moment will profoundly impact and change their lives is what fuels my passion for the helping profession.

Avi Friedman's experience working with the Jewish community
As a Frum Jew myself, my profound understanding of the cultural nuances within the Jewish Orthodox community enriches my work. The majority of my clients belong to the Orthodox Jewish faith, a crucial factor that enhances relatability and connection. This shared cultural background becomes particularly valuable when addressing specific challenges, such as a woman grappling with time management on Erev Shabbos or a man procrastinating his Torah learning.
Navigating issues like attending Shul, preparing for Yom Tov, or timely dismantling of a Sukkah after months of procrastination requires a nuanced understanding of Jewish culture. My firsthand experience allows me to bridge this cultural gap effectively. The shared wavelength fosters an environment where clients feel exceptionally comfortable opening up about their experiences, creating a more meaningful and impactful coaching journey.

I cannot express my gratitude enough for Avi getting me "unstuck" in my business. He was extremely professional and transparent. He asked preliminary questions that got to the core of what was holding me back. I was so impressed at how efficiently and effectively he recognized my roadblock. Then, he sent me an outline and summary of what we discussed, including the next steps I needed to take grow my business. His advice and approach were spot on. I recommend Avi to anyone that needs to focus on their business and put on blinders to the distractions that are keeping you from achieving the success you deserve.
