    Why This New World Starts Inside You - with Leon Kammer

    Ep 224 One World in a New World with Leon Kammer What happens when leadership, spirituality, and lived experience converge into a single inquiry? In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel sits down with transformative coach and Kabbalah student Leon Kammer for a wide-ranging conversation on consciousness, vulnerability, fear, and the deeper forces shaping our inner and outer worlds. From corporate leadership to ancient wisdom traditions, this dialogue explores what it means to live—and lead—from the heart in a rapidly changing civilization. There is a growing hunger in the world today—not for answers, but for better questions. In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel welcomes Leon Kammer, a transformative coach, former entrepreneur, and devoted student of the ancient wisdom of Kabbalah. Leon shares his extraordinary life journey—from growing up as an immigrant across multiple countries, to success in fashion, media, and business, to a profound spiritual awakening that reshaped how he understands leadership, identity, and the human soul. Join us for a thoughtful conversation focused on the path of "self discovery" and achieving harmony within oneself and with the Earth. This episode emphasizes "personal growth" through engaging dialogue, encouraging a journey of inner balance and "mindfulness". Through these "life lessons", we aim to provide "inspiration" for viewers to cultivate wisdom and meaning in their own lives. 🌍✨ Together, Zen and Leon explore: Why vulnerability is not weakness—but leadership strength How fear quietly drives corporate culture and personal identity The difference between reacting and responding with awareness Why spirituality is becoming essential—not optional—in modern life How ancient wisdom meets contemporary leadership and AI-era challenges This is not a conversation about self-improvement through force or motivation. It is an invitation into presence, inquiry, and conscious choice. If you feel called to explore leadership beyond ego, success beyond status, and spirituality beyond dogma—this episode opens the door.
