🎉 We’re Back for 2025! 🎉
Kicking off the new year, The Alignment Show returns with an extraordinary interview featuring Yankel Meislin—a man whose transformative journey grips the heart and inspires the soul. Whether you’re religious or not, Yankel’s story of redemption, resilience, and rediscovery delivers powerful lessons for anyone seeking personal growth.
Yankel grew up as a secular Jew, thriving in sports and community life, until temptations from the streets pulled him off course at 14. By 19, he dealt drugs at such a high level that he hired a gang-affiliated bodyguard to protect him. When his family issued an ultimatum—leave “the life” or lose them—he chose to turn his life around.
He entered rehab and threw himself into 12-step programs, where he began a spiritual journey reconnecting him with his Jewish roots. Serendipitous encounters with a Chassidic Rabbi deepened his faith and led him to embrace the Chassidic way of life. Today, with 16 years of sobriety, he inspires others with his story and example.
As a coach and mentor, Yankel helps men and young adults uncover their authentic selves, ignite their passions, and live out their life’s mission. His clients achieve remarkable results, and his book, The Journey of Oz, captures his wisdom and experience.
🎙️ Don’t miss this incredible episode—Yankel’s journey will inspire you to take bold steps toward your own transformation. Tune in to hear how one man’s darkest moments fueled a life of purpose, clarity, and contribution.
