“Abe was such a pleasure to work with! He showed up early, followed direction perfectly, looks amazing on camera, and is really fun to be around! He's professional, kind, and a great model! I would cast him again in a heartbeat!”

Alyssa Anthony

“Abe was an incredible addition to our campaign. He was professional and prompt with filming and delivering content. His enthusiasm and authenticity were magnetic, both on screen and in our interactions. I'd be happy to work with Abe again in the future and would recommend him to anyone looking for a great brand representative.”

Empowered Human Academy

Writer and producer Rebekah Pahl is interviewing Abe this week, and then Isaac in the episode to follow. We’ll be reflecting on what this past season of conversations has meant to our own aliveness—and what we’re feeling drawn toward next.

Abe and Rebekah discuss the origins of the podcast, what it’s felt like for Abe to uncover a new level of confidence, the liminal space before you know what’s next, developing sustainable patterns for life as an entrepreneur, and the path back to the heart.

Consider this conversation a Polaroid of what Abe’s been processing lately— the way he describes the edge of newness that’s coming up for him is inspiring and we hope it might ignite your own curiosity of where life is inviting you, too.
