What an absolutely unparalleled work you are doing, Mrs. Weisberg. Another precious interview, as usual.
Please, do keep this amazing job of yours. What an energy !
Thank you both, Mrs. Weisberg and Mrs. Batashvilli for the moments above. Important to point out that Mrs. Batashvilli is fluent in 6 languages (Source LinkedIn)-breathtaking.
Also, what touched me the most was indeed the matter of one's authenticity. Defending our faith and values is the pathway to gain the ultimate respect of others.
Last, thank you for the Shaar Habitachon, a precious remind.
Both wonder women.
