About The Author
Ziporah V Bank
Ziporah V. Bank is a self-help author and coach who draws on her unique and challenging life experiences to inform her work. Raised as the only child of Holocaust survivors in Israel, she was exposed to deep-seated pain and suffering from a young age. This upbringing instilled in her a resilient attitude, leading her to make a conscious choice not to be defined by her parents' suffering. She learned early on that while pain is inevitable, suffering is optional. Her life journey, which included moving to America at a young age to pursue a journalism degree, was characterized by a rebellious spirit and a constant quest for wisdom and growth.
Based on the provided document, the author, Ziporah V. Bank, draws on her tumultuous personal life, including four marriages and unfaithfulness, as a source of wisdom. She attributes her past "chaotic life" to a lack of understanding of the interconnectedness of the mind, health, and soul. Her "monumental" realization about this connection inspired her to write her book. She now positions herself as a "wisdom collector" and guide who uses her mistakes and experiences to help others achieve personal transformation.

I'm tired of the word "try".
It has no action attached to it. You don't "try" in life, you just do.
I spent 45 years collecting wisdom such as this. Four marriages. 3 divorces. Five children. A career in Hollywood that taught me success without substance is just noise. And one candy bar that finally woke me up.
That candy bar led to a divorce...not just from my ex-husband (not my current husband), but from the version of myself that was running on sugar, chasing the wrong things, and ignoring the three things that actually matter: mind, health, and soul.
Thus, led to my book- I Ate a Candybar and Divorced My Husband.
I wrote this book for anyone who's tired of quick fixes. For anyone who's ready to stop existing and start living. For anyone who's been asking themselves: "What am I missing?"
Now I'm ready to bring these conversations to a wider audience. I've been a life coach for over 35 years, I know what it's like to connect to someone deeply. I am accepting invitations for public speaking engagements, panel discussions, workshops, and podcasts. I speak on:
- The Three Flowers framework (mind, health, soul)
- Relationships and marriage
- Jewish wisdom and personal transformation
- Resilience, suffering, and choosing joy
- Leadership and personal responsibility
If your organization, conference, or event is looking for a speaker who tells the truth with humor and heart, let's talk.
