Adele Beiny - Beyond Influencing: Reevaluating The Value I Deliver Online
Chavie and Adele kick things off by reminiscing when Chavie lived in Adele’s childhood home in Morristown, New Jersey, as a dorm counselor. Years later, their paths crossed again when Chavie hired Adele to create a brand video to launch Chavie’s then-new blog, clearasmud.blog. Adele shares how she jumped into the workforce straight out of high school, hustling an office job at a title insurance firm. From there she waltzed into Bloomingdales in Short Hills Mall and got a job in beauty and cosmetic. These early experiences and training in sales laid the groundwork for her entrepreneurial drive today. Adele talks about her desire to help women feel good about themselves and how that propelled her to sharing her lifestyle online and becoming a trusted source for all things fashion, beauty, and design. Chavie asks Adele about the shift in her online presence recently, and Adele opens up about how she is reevaluating the value she wants to offer online. Together, they dive into everything from fashion and beauty to health and current events to AI and the challenges of managing technology use for kids.

Episode 25 with Adele- another thought provoking and insightful episode. Another positive example of how strong Jewish women use social media platforms to share their experiences and perspectives. I would add one thought to their topic of navigating one’s life here in a comfortable, safe environment while simultaneously feeling awkward/guilty about the daily heartbreak and chaos in Israel- we must always focus on what we can and must do, which is reciting Tehillim , davening, bentching light, giving Tzedakah and doing all the Mitzvos with intent and in the merit of our brothers and sisters in Israel.
