The Man Behind ASK TOMER

In this powerful episode of the None of Your Business Podcast, hosts Michael Greenfield and Ushy Schwartz sit down with entrepreneur, philanthropist, and literal lifesaver, Tomer Naftali. From his early struggles as an Israeli immigrant to building a thriving design and printing business, Tomer’s journey is a masterclass in resilience, hustle, and heart.

Tomer opens up about the unexpected turns that led him to success, including how a job layoff pushed him into entrepreneurship and how he built a million-dollar printing business from the ground up. He also shares his raw experiences with failure, reinvention, and the power of community in shaping his career.

But what truly sets Tomer apart? He didn’t just build a business—he saved a life. In one of the most jaw-dropping moments of the podcast, Tomer reveals how he donated a kidney to a complete stranger, changing both their lives forever. He takes us through the emotional and psychological process of making that decision, the challenges of surgery and recovery, and what it feels like to know someone is alive today because of him.

What makes someone donate an organ to a total stranger? How do you pivot a business after a financial downfall? Why does Tomer believe that everything—even the hardest moments—is “for the best”?

Tune in to this unfiltered, inspiring conversation that will leave you questioning what it really means to give, to hustle, and to make a lasting impact on the world.
