My guest today, Dr. Salomon Imiak, shares a fascinating and emotional story of resilience. He was born in Havana, Cuba to a Jewish family in 1960, right about the time Fidel Castro had come into power. Today he is a very accomplished anesthesiologist in Hollywood, Florida. But, it took him 30 years to fulfill his dream of becoming a doctor. His story of escaping Cuba and of eventual professional success is not what you might know as the more typical Jewish Cuban American story. Dr. Imiak escaped Cuba in 1985, not to land in Miami to a supportive community, but to face many setbacks and challenges, including of course financial challenges. But, the lessons you will hear from him are priceless. Pay attention to the humility, the mentchlikite, the love of family, of G-d, his Torah, and most outstanding, his perseverance. I think these are lessons our generation and our children’s generation need to hear more of. And above all, notice the role of his dear wife Esther, who I think he might agree is the shining star of this whole interview. And who you will come to love just from hearing about her. Here’s Dr. Salomon Imiak. The post 467: From Survival to Trust with Dr. Salomon Imiak appeared first on Yael Trusch .
