Speaking
The mind behind
the media.
Stories from building brands - and from living out loud as a Jew online.
The speaker
Yaakov Galen
For the past seven years, I've been the creative mind behind the brands The Seekers Group has built - Thank You Hashem's hundred-million-view media platform, Smash House's packed locations, Twillory's seven-figure retail turnaround. Not the committee. The guy shaping the voice, the stories, and the direction.
Along the way I've lived a lot of my Jewish life online - posting, laughing, arguing, and telling stories about Judaism to millions of people who never set foot in a shul. Some of those stories are funny. Some got ugly. All of them taught me something worth sharing.
I speak because I believe Judaism should feel approachable for everyone - and because the stories prove it.
Bring the story to
your school or community.
Real experiences from the front lines of social media - told honestly, for rooms full of students, parents, and community members.
01
Stories That Travel
What six years of building media brands teaches about attention, stories, and momentum - told through the campaigns, wins, and face-plants most agencies never share.
02
A Jew Online
The highs, the trolls, and the lessons of telling Jewish stories in public - what it costs, what it builds, and why it matters more now than ever.
03
Making It Approachable
Meeting people where they are. Why Judaism is more doable - and more fun - than most people think, and how honest storytelling closes the gap.
Every talk is sized to your room - a 20-minute assembly or a full evening program - and shaped with you beforehand so it lands with your crowd.
