Personal Assistant
What’s the job really like when your job is... whatever your boss needs it to be? In this episode, we’re talking with Bob, a seasoned personal assistant who's made a career out of keeping high-powered lives running smoothly. From juggling calendars and travel to managing properties and last-minute emergencies, Bob's done it all—and lived to tell the tale.
Being a personal assistant is no 9-to-5—it’s part fixer, part magician, part mind-reader. Bob gives us real talk and career insight on what it takes to thrive in this high-trust, high-reward role. If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like behind the scenes of the rich and famous (and how to break into that world), this is your episode.

About the host: Mirav Ozeri has always been drawn to storytelling and journalism, especially the stories of everyday people.
In the 90’s She founded her own video production company, producing, directing, and editing documentaries and videos for political organizations which led to a 17-year career at CBS News, where she served as a producer/editor, helped launch CBS MarketWatch, and later worked as a senior editor and segment producer until the program was acquired by Dow Jones.
During her years at CBS, Mirav developed and produced a television pilot built around a simple idea: giving people an honest look at what different careers are really like. Although the pilot was never picked up, the concept stayed with her. Years later, she brought it back as How Much Can I Make?, a podcast that explores real jobs, real stories, and the many paths people take to build a career.
