Hey!

Thanks for taking the time to find out a little more about us. We hope this gives you a taste of what our community is all about.

Please, read on! 

Or Click To See Who We Are

Funny, isn't it?

How a world buzzing with so much data offers so little of the simple things we actually want.

The news, the trends and the gurus, the infographics and masterminds, the books and podcasts, all a click away.

So much noise, so little music.

What about the questions, the conversations, the exploration, adventure and authentic connections that lead us to what we actually want? Because they’re pretty simple.

We want to lead a life of meaning – to do work that fills us with purpose and fulfillment.

We want adventure – to have fun and enjoy life! To grow authentic roots and to branch out into new worlds.

We want to be good – to be better humans, and contribute our unique color to the full spectrum of light that makes the world a better place.

And we want to do it with others – a community of like-minded people. To make new friends, and deepen our existing relationships.

We don’t think these are complicated or too much to ask for.

And that’s why Olami exists.

Olami creates the kinds of spaces, opportunities and experiences that enable us to grow in goodness together. 

Through conversations with friends and meaningful one-on-ones with mentors. Through exhilarating trips exploring ourselves, and bonding with the people and world around us. Through business networks of people who recognize that meaningful work starts with meaningful relationships. Or simply through taking time out every now and again to meditate, to remain still.

We’re a modern Jewish tribe.

We bring the wisdom and traditions that our families shared for generations into the present in a way that makes sense.

Together we explore the idea of what it means to be part of a community that cares about making the world better. This is what Olami sees as the Jewish way. Not just to go through life but to grow through life as a global community in pursuit of a good life, and a better world.

Our community is in 28 countries, with close to 300 chapters, and like each of us,

It's growing daily.
