Search for Meaning with Yuval David
In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Search for Meaning, Rabbi Yoshi sits down with Yuval David, an Emmy Award and multiple award-winning actor, filmmaker, journalist, and activist. Yuval is known for his innovative and acclaimed series One Actor Short and other original content, ABC’s What Would You Do, FX’s Feud, and numerous television and film roles. He regularly appears as a news commentator on Fox, NewsNation, NBC, i24, ILTV, Sky News, and other outlets. Yuval takes also his bold advocacy work across the US, Israel, and internationally, as a speaker, workshop leader, and in meetings with politicians and community groups.Together, they explore what it means to "come out of the closet" — not once, but twice: first as a gay man, and then, more recently, as a proud Zionist in increasingly complex times.Yuval shares his journey of embracing his authentic self, navigating a world that often demands silence or conformity. He speaks candidly about the challenges and triumphs of living openly, and the new layers of meaning he's discovered in affirming both his sexual identity and his deep connection to Israel.This conversation is a meditation on resilience, self-definition, and how we find meaning when the world around us feels divided. It is an invitation to consider the power of vulnerability, the importance of solidarity, and the courage it takes to stand in one's truth — especially when it's uncomfortable.Learn more about Yuval and his work at yuvaldavid.com instagram.com/yuval_david_ x.com/yuvaldavid Youtube.com/YuvalDavid
