Episode 23
Wednesday, 11 March, 2026
Hi everyone, welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I’m Alex Segal and today, I am speaking with Gvira Milworm. Gvira is the CEO of Temech, a Jerusalem-based nonprofit dedicated to helping women from Israel’s Haredi community advance professionally while protecting and honoring Jewish values.Gvira was born in the Bronx and made aliya with her parents from Peoria, Illinois, and then was raised in Jerusalem’s Haredi center. She built a 25-year career as a trailblazing woman in technology across the government and private sectors, including 15 years in systems analysis and project management and over a decade as the founder of GMP Start, an international technology consulting business.She became the CEO of Temech in 2019 and in that role, is passionate about helping Jewish women build meaningful, sustainable careers without compromising their values. Also, she’s the mother of 11 children, so she’s running quite a crew at home as well.Gvira is a fascinating person and we had such a wonderful conversation. We speak about:-Her career and how she got to become the powerhouse leader that she is-How young girls today can become more assertive in asking for what they want and receiving it-What she did when life got honestly too overwhelming — how she got herself back and the routines and strategies she put in place to manage her big and beautiful life and make time for herself within that-How her relationship with Hashem has evolved over the years and how she connects now-The difference between resilience and strength-The power of imperfection…and so much more!To get in touch with Gvira, you can reach out at Gviram@temech.org.To learn more about what she does, visit Temech.org.
