As we approach 2025 - I'm rethinking some of the ways that we can best serve our community. Our goal is to build a tiny but mighty digital community for Jewish authors, artists and entrepreneurs who are making a meaningful difference in the world - specifically - around topics like mindfulness, self care, mental health, community wellness, and “enlightened” entrepreneurship in a difficult moment for Jewish creators.
(note - a difficult moment is not the same as an impossible moment - and I tend to cringe a bit around the cottage industry that has cropped up focused solely on lamenting the complete lack of opportunities for Jewish entrepreneurs - this is quite clearly not true as evidenced by the many tens of thousands of Jewish creators and entrepreneurs who are doing the best work of our lives - in a myriad of markets - with full creative freedom. Don't let other people - including trusted voices in the Jewish community - convince you that your best work - and your biggest contribution - is behind you. We are fortunate to live in a moment where you don't need permission to publish your words - or your work - and if a door closes that was open before - kick open a new one yourself)
Our goal is to help to help amplify entrepreneurship, and provide a springboard for collaboration & connection within the Jewish creative community writ large.
In a perfect world, we'll use our platform to promote people, products, programs and other complimentary platforms run by Jewish authors, makers, creators and entrepreneurs – and to use our experience and expertise with design, digital products and E commerce to build something meaningful for all.
Alone we can change a neigborhood. Together, we can change the world. Reach out via the community comments below to share your words (and your work!) - or send an email -mindfulmarketplace@gmail.com for a beta invite and for more details about what we're planning next.
