Rebecca Pash - Personal Trainer & Podcast Host - Happy Birthday to me!

Born and raised in Manchester until the age of 18, I did a year in Israel with Bnei Akiva and came back to the UK to go to university in Leeds. I studied Sociology and moved to London for 2 years after I had finished my degree. After working for a Jewish NGO in London I decided I wanted to make aliya, so 13 years ago I took the second flight from the UK with NBN to Israel. I studied at Ulpan and then quickly moved to Tel Aviv. After many jobs, i worked in tourism, as a PA, online gaming and back to tourism I decided I really wanted to study to become a personal trainer. 

The course was 7 months at Tel Aviv University and all in hebrew- which I was not fluent in. I was determined to pass so I worked double hard and translated all the courses in to English so I always knew what was happening in class, I passed and started working at Holmes Place Dizengoff Centre soon after. After a year and half working for minimum pay, I decided to take my profession outside and started working for myself at Toolbox gym. It’s been nearly 4 years of a lot of ups and downs and learning how to work for yourself and becoming a better trainer. I don't know if it was the best decision I made living in Israel alone with no family to support me here, but I care a lot about health and fitness and I really want to make a difference to women and show how they can become strong and look after their bodies. 

Then this time last year I decided, after listening to hours and hours of podcasts that I would like to start my own podcast -  focusing on women who had made aliyah and started businesses or just had a great aliyah story to share. It’s been a major learning curve, I am learning something new everyday and really seeing it grow. I hope I get to interview even more amazing women this year and that I can reach even more people in 2020.
