Ellie Zeiler: Rewriting Success and Embracing Change

In this episode of Kale in My Teeth, Rivki welcomes Ellie Zeiler for a conversation about embracing personal growth, redefining success, and navigating life’s pivotal transitions. Ellie shares her journey of balancing a high-profile career with a deeper sense of purpose, the challenges of staying true to herself in a world of external expectations, and the profound lessons she’s learned from her time in seminary. From redefining femininity and values to fostering authentic connections, this conversation covers self-discovery, ambition, and resilience.
