    Dreaming Big and Doing Good: Jeff Braverman’s Symphony of Inclusion and Spirit

    Jeff Braverman joins HarmonyTALK to reflect on 30 years of leadership at Camp Nesher and the unexpected decisions that helped shape one of its most meaningful legacies.What began as a dream to create a vibrant summer camp experience centered on community and faith took an unexpected turn when he was approached by a parent who asked if their wheelchair-bound child with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy could be accommodated and welcomed at camp. Braverman’s decision to move forward would become one of the most defining moments of his career. He didn’t simply advocate for accessibility. He embedded it into the culture of the camp itself, shaping programs and practices that welcomed campers of all abilities as equal participants through a partnership program with the national organization Yachad (Hebrew for “together”,) whose mission is inclusion for individuals with developmental disabilities into the greater Jewish community. Located in Lakewood, Pennsylvania, Camp Nesher is part of NJY Camps, a 105-year-old organization and one of the world’s largest camping agencies, awarding up to $2 million in scholarships each year. In addition, NJY brings more than 40 years of experience in inclusive programming through its Round Lake inclusion program at its Milford, Pennsylvania, property which includes Camps Nah-Jee-Wah, Cedar Lake and Teen Camp. In this inspiring conversation with host Todd Stephens, Braverman shares leadership lessons learned along the way and how passion, purpose and music can move in harmony.   FOLLOW HARMONYTALK PODCAST @harmonytalkpodcast Join Our Mailing List: https://www.harmonytalkpodcast.com/signup  Instagram: https://instagram.com/harmonytalkpodcast  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/harmonytalkpodcast  YouTube: https://youtube.com/@HarmonyTALKPodcast  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/harmonytalkpodcast    https://harmonytalkpodcast.com/  Follow Host, Todd Stephens:  https://www.instagram.com/workinman1/  Email harmonytalkpodcast@gmail.com for sponsorship and guest opportunities!  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Holiday Harmony: Dreamers, Doers & Big Ideas

    The holidays are here, and at HarmonyTALK, that means it’s time to hit pause, look back, and smile a little. This special holiday episode is our end-of-year highlight reel- a celebration of the dreamers, doers, and big ideas that shaped our conversations throughout 2025. Hosted by Lisa Champeau, Greg Frigoletto, and Todd Stephens, this episode revisits some unforgettable moments and the people behind them. We hear from guests who followed curiosity instead of certainty. Who chased bold ideas. Who found purpose in unexpected places. From a lifelong camp dream turned into a thriving reality, to a young scientist tackling microplastics, to powerful reflections on creativity, courage, and staying curious, each story reminds us why we love these conversations so much. This episode isn’t about perfection or tidy endings. It’s about momentum. About what happens when people say yes to possibility, lean into the process, and keep showing up for what excites them. As we wrap up 2025 and look ahead to a brand-new year, we’re grateful for our guests, our listeners, and the stories that connect us all. We hope this holiday special leaves you inspired, energized, and ready for whatever comes next. Happy holidays from all of us at HarmonyTALK—and here’s to more dreamers and doers in 2026.
