About Today’s Show

Hello and welcome to Stellar Life Podcast. I’m a guest host this time, Stephan Spencer. The reason why I’m coming in is because my guest is actually your host, Orion Talmay, an amazing and accomplished hypnotherapist, transformational coach, and also my wife and soulmate.

First of all, your wife and David’s mom. That’s number one. The rest is just the rest.

Well, you’ve made a lot of impactful changes in a lot of people’s lives, and you’ve done a lot of good with your podcast as well for nine years if you can believe it.

I can’t believe it.

Yeah, whirlwind. Let’s start off with something more kind of esoteric as a topic. Let’s talk about some of the most profound miracles, insights, and epiphanies that you’ve gotten in the last year or several years.

In the last year, the epiphany that I got was I always followed my heart. I left a very good job at around 20. I gave two weeks’ notice and had just a tiny bit of money. I went to Japan, but everybody told me not to do that. I followed my heart, and I did that. It’s happened again this year where we’re in Israel right now, and it’s not logical to be here. 

It’s not a logical decision. We were at a time when many people were actually leaving for places like Florida that were very comfortable. Life here is pretty intense. We’re in the middle of a war. A day ago, we had to run for shelter. Then you hear the—

The sirens went off while we were going for a walk in the park. We had to find a shelter underground.

Self-care isn't just a luxury; it's a necessity. Sometimes, less is more, and it's the little things that make the biggest impact on our well-being. Share on X

I was really stressed out because I was with my little one and my elderly mom, who walks really slowly. I was like, “Mom, a little faster,” because we had a minute and a half to go to the shelter. It seems like the wrong time and decision, but it’s not. It’s about following. I don’t know why we’re here. We were both guided to be here. It’s not even logical for you because I’m from here, but you’re not. You were really guided to come here. I don’t know why. I will probably know in the future. But it’s about following your heart even when it doesn’t make sense.

We are following that intuition as well, which may be an important distinction for our listeners to understand, as intuition and following your heart are two different things.

How so?

My understanding is intuition comes from the third eye, from that connection with God and that higher realm. Following your heart is that inner knowing, I think, guided by your higher self. But maybe you have some different distinctions around it.

I’ll do that. It’s the same for me—following your heart, following your intuition. Maybe because I’m a female, we’re very emotional, and our hearts and minds are more entangled. I feel like people who have more masculine frames have more of that distinction of, “My heart is separate, my intuition is separate, my mind is separate.” For me, most of them work together. For me, it’s more mind versus heart/intuition.

When we share our gifts, we not only illuminate our own path but also inspire those around us.

That’s good to know because I receive it differently and separately. It’s like if I get an intuitive hit, a sensation, or some sort of idea that goes against logic or conventional wisdom, I feel like I’m guided to take that right turn instead of a left turn. I did it, and I found out that something amazing happened from it. Maybe I don’t find out for a while, but then there’s that following your heart where I feel the feeling of what it’s like to make that choice. 

I’m in my head a lot. I think a lot of men are in their heads and trying to get out of your head and into your heart. Then you feel the feeling of expansiveness, the trust, the love, whatever that sensation is. But it’s a feeling sensation versus a thought that just pops in your head out of nowhere. It’s against all logic, but you just know it’s right. It’s not a feeling. There’s no emotion there. It’s like, “Boom, turn left or whatever instead of going straight.”

As long as we follow what is, I guess, connected to our higher self, it is the right answer. That’s one of the distinctions I got this year. Also, being patient. Man, moving to a different country is super hard. Moving to a different country at war is very hard. Moving to a different country at war and homeschooling in a new environment is also challenging. I do not have the car that I love or the convenience of the US. Amazon Prime takes a day in the US and three to four weeks here.

You can get everything. You’re limited to $75 of what you can buy. On the physical level, it’s more expensive here. Everything is more intense. But we are here, and we are closer to family, and the people are mostly amazing. Most of the time, some people are not, but there is a lot of heart Israelis are. They call them Sabra, a cactus. We are very prickly on the outside and soft on the inside. 

But what’s really beautiful is—I don’t see it in the States as much, maybe more in places like New York—if somebody falls down the street or needs help—usually in the States, many people will ignore them. “I don’t know who this person is. I’m not going to really help.” Of course, there are good people everywhere who will help. But in general, after being there for 20 years, and from my personal experience, there is more help. People will help each other. The community is really embedded in helping each other and in charity, too. I feel like the US is more about everyone being to themselves, whereas it’s more about community.

Do you remember the story about how the AMBER Alert was created?

Yes. AMBER Alert is an alert you get on your phone when a kid is kidnapped. We met that woman.

Yeah. The mother of Russell Reynolds.

What’s her name? I forgot. But. Hi, mother of Russell Reynolds. Sorry, I forgot your name.

Making a change starts with admitting there's a need for one. Whether it's in building a new community or redesigning your life, the first small step is always the hardest but also the most crucial. Share on X

Sweetest lady.

She’s very kind.

American lady.

She said she came to Israel and. Was it her child that was missing?

No, it was somebody in the community. She was there, and it happened.

She was in some public place, and a child was missing. The moms started alerting each other. Like, one mom was shouting, and another mom was shouting. They’re all strangers, right? Then they created some kind of community alert, and within 10 minutes, they found the boy. That’s how she got the idea of creating the AMBER Alert. Because this is the way it is now. I haven’t been to New York since 9-11, or when all the electricity went off. There was darkness or something like that. But it’s times like that when people come together and help each other.

Oh, you’re talking about when the power went out in Manhattan for weeks.

No, I don’t remember vaguely.

It was after one of the hurricanes.

Yes. At times like that, people come together when we are very comfortable. People are becoming too comfortable and too selfish. Israel is one of those places that’s been hit. I mean, since the time it was born. There are always some kind of war missile attacks or terror attacks.

Or is a threat just looming?

A threat. I became really hyper-vigilant here, even with the sirens. Sometimes, they do construction nearby, and I hear the machines going. Like, “Wait, is this a siren? Or the wind? What is that?” I became a little more hyper-vigilant here. It’s also the nature of Jewish communities around the world to help each other. But if you take that and bring everybody from everywhere in the world into this melting pot of a tiny country, and you add a lot of external stresses, you get people that build stronger communities because it’s primal to survive when you are part of a tribe. When the tribe takes care of each other, the tribe is stronger.

Creating a community takes courage, especially when it means admitting our own loneliness. But once you take that first small step, you'll find the doors of opportunity opening wide. Share on X

Yeah, it is a tribe. It really is. What that lady found by witnessing this child go from lost to found within 10 minutes, or whatever it was, was so inspiring for her that the whole community would just jump with no notice to another member’s aid, and it would galvanize the whole community instantly. She actually said that would never happen in America. She wanted to create a system to emulate what she saw in Israel. That’s how the AMBER Alert became a thing.

I remember when we moved to Cooper City community in Florida, and when I was a child, I saw these old movies where the neighbors come and greet you with an apple pie, and I really wanted a neighbor to come and greet me with an apple pie. But actually, I found out that the neighbors don’t really talk to each other.

No. They don’t even like each other.

I don’t know if they like each other, but they just don’t talk to each other.

Oh, some of them don’t like each other.

Really?

Yeah. The one across the street was saying bad stuff about the neighbor next to us on one side.

Persistence is key in any field. It’s not about how many times you fail but how many times you get back up and keep trying.

I missed that. But I really wanted an apple pie and a big welcome. I’m not saying that everybody’s perfect here, and everybody is like, “Oh, come, let me hug you.” But when people are in trouble, 99.9% of the time, you will find somebody to help. There’s even a charity called YILDIRIM. Yildirim means friends or acquaintances. That is a free service for volunteers. If you are stuck on the side of the road or something happens, just call them, and a volunteer anywhere in the country will come and help you as soon as possible.

What’s the lesson for our listener on taking this and applying it in their life? Maybe find a neighbor they haven’t introduced themselves to and bring an apple to pie or something.

First, I learned to make an apple pie. I made one apple pie in my life. It was very difficult.

It’s easier to buy one.

Yeah, just buy one. I like creating communities. If you’re able to create a small community in your area and help each other, that will be lovely. One of the things that happened in my community back when we lived in Cooper City was that there were a few women, and their husbands were in the IDF reserves. They didn’t have to go and defend Israel after October 7, but they left their families and their little ones in Florida to go to Israel, to go to battle. 

We’re not meant to live in isolation. We’re meant to help each other.

The women of the community were taking turns cooking for them, whoever needed something because little kids were left behind and moms with no help. I am helping them with babysitting and helping them with food. It’s another thing that you do here in the community, not everywhere, but it is a tradition in some communities where a woman delivers a baby, and there is a sign that other women come and cook for her and take care of her. 

I think the idea of taking care of each other is so important. We’re not meant to live in isolation. We’re meant to help each other. We’re meant to be here for each other through the good and bad times. We’re not meant to just be in isolation. It’s so important to help each other, be together, and have a community. If you don’t have a community, freaking create a community.

You know that there are a couple of bumper stickers and expressions I like in that regard: “Be the change you want to see in the world.” The second one is “If not now, then when, and if not you, then who?” You’ve done some amazing community building with older ladies who didn’t have.

Oh yeah, I built this. When you don’t have a community, you have to build a community. My mom came to visit us when we were in Florida, and she doesn’t speak English or drive. Except for being with us and having a good time with us, she was pretty lonely. I created a group of women. I just invited elderly women from the community to come and have lunches together. I called them The Bold and the Beautiful in Florida. Do you remember that? There’s a so-called opera. When I was a child, it was called The Bold and Beautiful.

I remember something called The Young and the Restless. Maybe that’s the same show but translated differently.

There was one guy there that I had a crush on on the show. Anyway, we started out very small, and now there is a community in Florida of over 100 women who are not lonely anymore.

You created that.

I created that.

Amazing.

Then, I got other admins for the group to take care of it.

They’re on WhatsApp to coordinate and keep in touch between the meetups. Then they meet every month or two weeks.

Whenever they meet up, I don’t follow them anymore. Sometimes, I’m a cop, like, “Stop talking about politics in the group. This is just for meetups.” That’s all I do pretty much these days. But if you don’t have a community, if there is a need for something to be happening and nobody else is doing it, then you do it, you step up, and it doesn’t have to be big. You can start with like two to four people.

You gotta be brave to raise your hand and say, “Hey, I’m lonely. I would like to meet with some people.” It might feel a little yucky and icky. Do it anyway because you don’t know the opportunity that can open up for you. We have a saying here. “Open a little hole the size of the head of a needle.” Just do that. It’s like almost God is saying to you, “Just do the first step, open it a little bit, and I will open it the size of a huge gate.”

Yeah, that’s in the Bible.

I don’t remember the translation exactly, but that’s the idea that the team can. Thank you, team. Love you, team. Shout out to the team that helps us with our podcasts. By the way, this dude has two podcasts. One is Get Yourself Optimized, and the other one is Marketing Speak. Get Yourself Optimized is a little bit similar to Stellar Life, but we have two different styles. Marketing Speak is, of course, everything to do with marketing. Check out those podcasts because they’re amazing. He’s a brilliant host and a very smart man. Most of them are really smart men, really intelligent. His conversations are incredible.

The smartest advice I ever got was to listen to your wife.

Who gave you that advice? 

It was one of those little books of wisdom. I think it was M. Scott Peck or somebody like that who wrote these bestselling books. It just jumped out at me, that page with that advice. It was very appropriate at the moment. Anyway, you can do this community creation thing virtually, too. You are a co-founder of a virtual mastermind group that we’ve been running for a year now or at least half a year now.

No, not a year yet. We created a mastermind and invited amazing people to be on it just because we wanted to hang out with amazing people. That’s lovely. How do you like that?

If there is a need for something to be happening and nobody else is doing it, then you do it, you step up.

I love it. We’ve already gotten some wonderful feedback that it’s been profoundly impactful and helpful.

You don’t need to be a leader, and you don’t need to learn and know things. You just have to bring people together, and it will work out on its own. It’s going to take a life of its own. You will be guided, and you’ll know exactly what to do.

We don’t even have agendas. It’s every two weeks for an hour on Zoom, and we just show up. Whoever shows up, shows up. If only a few people show up, we have a conversation with just a few people. But it’s really wonderful.

It’s amazing how many resources you get when you bring people together. We got a web developer, we got doctors’ recommendations, and lots of other things.

Book recommendations, movies to watch, and events to attend.

The more we are connected via the web and social media, the more lonely people become. We can use those technologies and those platforms to actually bring people together instead of having them scroll on Instagram, YouTube, or Facebook, and have the sense that they are part of something, but they’re not really.

It’s like becoming an instigator instead of just a voyeur.

Participate in your life. Life goes by really quickly. Time goes by so fast. This is the time to participate in your life and create the thing you want to create. There’s no other time. It might take you a long time. My website’s taken me a long time, but hey, I’m in the process of doing it.

This is a redesign that’s going to look beautiful. It’s going to launch this year.

The more we are connected via the web and social media, the more lonely people become.

It’s going to be amazing. It’s already amazing. It just need a few more tweaks. Spoiler Alert: we’re going to change the name of this podcast.

You’re not going to tell them what the name is? 

No, not yet. You can send me emails and have some guesses about the name.

Or if you’re watching on YouTube, just post a comment.

Yeah, post a comment. Let’s see what you think the name is going to be.

What about creating a group or not just a meetup but creating a curriculum or some sort of program or talk or something you’ve done that you’ve created things that you’ve done either as free seven-day challenges? You’ve created in-person workshops and not charged for it or charged a little bit of money. You created events that were more like shorter talks and conference presentations and things like that. What wisdom do you have to share, and what are your suggestions for folks about putting their knowledge and wisdom out there in the world?

First of all, do you want to put your knowledge there in the world? If not, then you don’t have to. But if you are called to and are not doing it, you’re wasting your time.

I know. It’s wasting a gift, too.

You are wasting a gift, wasting your time. When a person does not use their gift, they start feeling like they are dim inside. It’s dim in your light. If you have a lot of light and don’t share it, it can burn and feel uncomfortable. If you have a calling to share something you do with some people, even on a very small scale—it doesn’t have to be big—I recommend you do it and find a way to do it. 

This is the time to participate in your life and create the thing you want to create. There’s no other time.

If you want to do standup, do open mic nights. If you want to paint, gather some people, paint together, or teach a little workshop. Honestly, what I learned about workshops is that, yes, I bring a lot of content, but sometimes, like I said, it’s enough that people are coming together to create magic. There is something where, like a few people’s electrical fields come together, and different minds come together. It creates a mastermind, whether it’s called a mastermind or not. 

Then you combine lots of creativity and ideas, and really good things can happen. You, maybe you do it, and you fail, and it’s not that great. Keep doing it. I used to be an actress a long time ago, but only recently I heard that it takes 64 auditions to get a part on average. I gave up on acting before I got to 64 because I hated rejection. 

But if you go with the mindset that you’re going to try and try and try, eventually you’re going to succeed. It’s just a matter of time. You can be successful on the first try, on the tenth try, or the twentieth try. It doesn’t matter, just keep going.

Because it’s not a no, it’s a knot.

Yes, I’ve been told, and I still regret that I’ve been told that because where I am, and my accent, the only role I can play would be of a terrorist or something crazy like that. When I was young and naive, I really believed them. Years later, Gal Gadot became Wonder Woman. Not only did she not have to change her accent, but the caste of Themyscira, the Greek city of the Amazonian women, also learned how to speak in her Hebrew accent. They’ll match. That’s a twist. That’s a way to look at things. If you believe in yourself and you take that step, things can happen around you. You don’t have to change the world. The world will align around you to get you wherever you need to go.

It’s like the universe conspiring to make your dreams come true.

I really want to meet Gal Gadot.

Well, if she’s listening to this podcast or maybe one of her family or friends.

I want to have a Shabbat dinner with her. Does she like bread? Break bread together if she eats bread.

Does she live in Tel Aviv?

I think she lives here partially. She’s kind of close but also so far away. But things that are far away can happen.

That’s right.

If you have a calling to share something you do with some people, you do it and find a way to do it.

Many years ago, I had Dr. Demartini and John Assaraf on my vision board. At that moment in time, they felt so far away, unreachable. “I’ll never get there. I’ll never meet them.” Not only did I meet Dr. Demartini, but I also interviewed him for The Huffington Post and this podcast, and I have his personal email. He remembers me, remembers us. I met John Assaraf at a conference.

You interviewed him.

Oh, yeah, that too. I came in contact with and had people guest on this podcast that I would never, ever imagine I could ever be in contact with. Oh, little me with the Israeli accent, “How can I meet those people?” But I also had really amazing support from you, and you pushed me at times when I gave up.

Well, you never gave up because you’ve been running the show for nine years.

But I wanted to give up so many times.

You did—a few times.

I was like, “I had enough. I don’t want to do it anymore. It’s too much.”

“I feel lonely when you don’t get feedback.” We rarely. I, too, also rarely get feedback. It’s occasionally once every few months. I’ll get an email, or you’ll get an email. “Oh, I love your show. I just want to tell you how great it is and how helpful it’s been.” We love getting those emails. We hardly ever get them. I could probably count on one hand the number of emails I’ve gotten.

No, I’m feeling sorry. You both are.

If you have the mindset that you’re going to try and try, eventually, you’re going to succeed.

It doesn’t make us feel like we’re alone in a forest.

But I don’t want to be alone in the forest. If you’re in the forest with me, say “Hi. Yeah. Send a review.” Tell me, “Hey, Orion, I’m here in the forest with you. I love your show. Let’s go hiking together.”

Let’s break bread with Gal Gadot. Well, anyway, if you are so inspired, email Orion and let her know you love her show.

Or love me.

That too. I love you.

I love you, too.

Let’s talk about what would surprise the listener or the viewer.

Hear when I do nonsense like what I just did.

I think something they couldn’t possibly know about you or something that would be counterintuitive.

Wow, that’s a hard one, Stephan. I love eating with chopsticks. I arrived in Japan and I didn’t have much money. I used to eat like those convenience store onigiris stuck in my tummy because it was so much rice. One time, a friend of a friend invited us to a luxurious meal at a Chinese restaurant, the fancy one. There were a lot of nice people around the table, and they shared amazing food, but there were no forks. Everybody was eating chopsticks, and I did not know how to eat with chopsticks.

I was trying to get those noodles on my chopsticks. I couldn’t. I was so hungry, and everything smelled so amazing. But I was so shy because I didn’t know how to eat. I ended up going home hungry and buying an onigiri again from the convenience store. I used to buy instant ramen and practice my chopstick skills. Now I can catch flies with my chopsticks. Not really, but I’m really good with it.

In a world overflowing with connections, it’s ironic how many of us feel isolated. True community comes from active participation, from being present in your own life and the lives of others.

You are very good with chopsticks. You learned Japanese. You were there long enough, and you had the desire to really pick up the language.

I had more of a desire to have a student visa than to pick up the language. It was quite hard for me to learn the language because, in my school, there were people from China and Korea who already had a background in kanji and the structure of the language. They’re Asians. Asians are really good students. I wasn’t. I picked up some language, but I wasn’t a great student.

But you were fluent enough that you could get around.

Yeah, I could get around. I can carry on a conversation. I forgot most of it, though.

It’s there.

I would love to go to Japan. Can we go to Japan? Japan is amazing.

What’s amazing about Japan?

Oh, where would I begin? I remember landing in Narita, and it felt like landing on Mars. Most of the people were shorter than me. I don’t know. I think the Japanese are taller these days because they eat McDonald’s and stuff.

That makes people taller, huh?

No, they have a lot of hormones in their food, and Western food has a lot of growth hormones. I’m serious. I don’t know how tall Japanese people are, but many years ago, they were shorter than me—most of them. I remember landing in Narita, my first trip abroad, and it was just like a sea of Asian people. I was so tired and unfamiliar with Asian people because, back in the day, they didn’t have many in Israel. 

Now, it’s more of a melting pot. Yes, there’s way more. But everybody looked the same, and everybody was shorter than me. I was so tired and didn’t know where to go, and it was overwhelming. But there was a really sweet young woman. I think I was crying because I didn’t know. She walked with me to the right station, about 15 minutes, to show me where to go. This is one of the things I like about Japan. Sometimes, they will. 

They’re so kind, and they will really. They either won’t talk to you because they’re afraid to speak English, or they’re going to be really kind and really help you. I love the food. What I love about Tokyo is that you can go to Ginza and see skyscrapers. Japan is so much more advanced than the US or any other place in the world. I think maybe Korea is the same or China, I don’t know. I have never been there. But so much more advanced technologically. 

When you believe in yourself and persevere, you can break through barriers, even those shaped by stereotypes. Share on X

With this advanced technological place, you can see a sumo riding a bicycle or a geisha walking down the street. The mix of old and new, traditional and nontraditional, is so beautiful. I love watching the Harajuku kids with their crazy costumes near Yoyogi Park.

What are Harajuku kids?

Harajuku kids are kind of like punk rock. I don’t know its name, but they wear crazy costumes and makeup and just gather near Harajuku.

It’s like anime-type costumes.

Anime, yes. There is a cool market there. Then you have Yoyogi Park, which has a big temple in Sakura, in the cherry blossom. Everybody picnics there. Under the cherry trees. 

What is special about the temples?

There are a lot of them. I remember walking down Omotesando, which is kind of like the Champs-Elysees of Japan, and there are lots of fashion houses like Issey Miyake, Saint Laurent, Gucci, all the big names. But every few fashion houses, there is a tiny Shinto temple. I remember throwing a coin, ringing the bell, clapping three times, and praying. Just like gratitude for my guides and angels and everything.

And God.

Yes, of course, I believe in God. Japan is amazing. The food is amazing. People are amazing. It’s a crazy place. I love it.

That was what, 20 years ago, you were there, right? Maybe when you were seven.

When I was three.

What last nugget of wisdom do you want to share with our listener? It could be something completely unrelated to any of the stuff.

Don’t eat McDonald’s nuggets. It’s awful for you. Eat organic, great food. Make sure to eat as few pesticides and herbicides and as little bad food as possible. Take the time to cook a healthy meal for yourself. Of course, if you don’t have it accessible, we ate more. They’re here, but I need to know where to get them. It’s not like I have a Costco here with all their organic options or Whole Foods. Everything is way smaller, and they don’t import as much.

Well, even at Costco, you got to be careful because I saw on Facebook or something a picture of some egg yolks that were from a farmer at a farmer’s market, and they were just deep orange. Then Costco organic eggs are super bright yellow.

Well, that depends on the feed. When you feed the chickens with lots of delicious worms, their yolks will be more orange. It probably was organic, but not as nutrient-dense.

Even if it says organic on the label, it doesn’t mean that it’s super high quality.

Yeah, but it’s better than none. Even if I know a lot of people say, “Oh, organic, they’re cheating. It’s not always organic,” but even if it’s less, that’s better, too, because less is more. So, yeah. Take care of your body.

It’s a temple to go back to this. Clap three times.

Right. Take care of your mind. Take care of your body. I know we don’t do it 24/7, but when you have moments of remembrance, just remember to drink water, eat yummy food that is healthy and good for you, and pray and connect however you like to your higher self and to God, source, the universe, whatever you connect to. And have a stellar life.

Don’t watch junk on TV.

You know what? I do feel like sometimes it is just all right to watch junk on TV.

At least not the stuff that is horrific. That’s like a bad computer virus in your brain. 

Thank you, Mr. Spencer. I appreciate you interviewing me for the Stellar Life podcast. It’s going to be something else soon.

Where can people find you and follow you and learn from you?

Well, I have a great podcast that you’re listening to, so thank you for being here, for being my audience, and for listening.

But you’re also on Instagram.

I really love you.

I love you, too.
