For many people in their 60s, starting something new feels daunting, sometimes even unnecessary. After decades of routines and responsibilities, change can seem like something best left to the young. But Judy Mozes is the exception, a bold, energized force proving that personal reinvention doesn’t come with an expiration date.

At 66, Mozes is turning up the volume on the life she’s always lived. It’s unfiltered. It’s full of vitality. And most importantly, it’s guided by personal truth. 

“As long as one is alive,” Mozes says, “life should be lived to the fullest.” 

The former Israeli media personality and mother of five recently relocated to New York, embracing a new stage with seemingly limitless energy.

It wasn’t a reinvention for the sake of novelty—it was a conscious decision to keep growing. “Do what your heart and soul want,” Mozes explains, “without obsessing over how others will take it.”

Rule No. 5 and the Art of Centering

At the core of Mozes’ philosophy are her personal “Ten Commandments for a Better Life.” She often returns to Rule No. 5 when things feel out of balance.

“When I feel petty or resentful, Rule No. 5 brings me back to myself,” she states.

It’s a quiet but persistent guidepost that has shaped her perspective during her career shifts, public controversies, and personal milestones.

From Talk Shows to TikTok

Mozes’ media career spans decades. She’s hosted talk shows, led radio programs, and written on themes of happiness and resilience. Now, Mozes is taking those same themes into digital spaces, where she posts videos that are equal parts wellness, dance, and social insight.

Fitness and expression are essential to her lifestyle. 

“There’s no real difference between 20 and 60,” Mozes insists, “as long as your mindset stays young.” 

Dance, in particular, has become Mozes’ personal and public therapy. Her short clips of joy-in-motion often go viral, offering followers a sense of fun and freedom they didn’t know they needed.

Resilience Runs in the Family

Much of Mozes’ strength comes from her mother, Paula, a Holocaust survivor who escaped into the forests of Poland at 14 and rebuilt her life after losing her family. 

“She was always well-groomed, always saw the glass half full,” Mozes shares. “She taught me dignity and grace.”

While Mozes’ style is more outspoken than her mother’s quiet resilience, the core values are the same: survive, rebuild, and never stop becoming. Her life now mirrors that legacy, fueled by curiosity and compassion.

Beauty, Honesty, and No Compromises

A longtime advocate for skincare and wellness, Mozes shares tips with a loyal audience. But she refuses to commercialize her advice, only endorsing what she genuinely believes in: “Despite the offers, I’ve never recommended a product I wouldn’t use myself.”

This commitment has earned her trust in a digital space where paid endorsements often cloud authenticity. For Mozes, aging with grace means standing by your truth, even when it’s unpopular.

Telling It Like It Is

Known for her bold opinions, Mozes isn’t afraid of controversy. A tweet about Barack Obama landed her in the headlines during a press briefing. Still, Mozes stands by her candor. “I believe in being honest, even if it’s risky,” she says.

Her commentary spans culture, current events, and identity, often reflecting her deep interest in public affairs across both Israeli and American society. She regularly shares her views through social media and short-form videos, where sincerity takes precedence over polish.

While Mozes acknowledges that her English isn’t flawless, she believes clarity comes from conviction. Her recent column in Ynet captured this ethos: vulnerability meets voice in motion, and the result is refreshingly real.

Living Louder, Not Slower

Today, Mozes is building a cross-cultural presence as a model and media voice. From Twitter to Facebook, she speaks directly to those who want more out of life, not someday, but now.

In addition to her media work, Mozes has spent years involved in charitable initiatives. She led a New York-based nonprofit for over 15 years that focused on helping people quietly in need and continues to support several causes related to children, women, and community health.

At the core of her worldview is a belief that most people want similar things: a meaningful life, peace of mind, and dignity for their families. She encourages others to approach life with empathy, rather than judgment, and to question assumptions that divide rather than unite. “We may not all share the same opinions,” she says, “but we all want to be content in our lives. That’s the common ground worth holding onto.”

“If there’s a message I want to share,” she concludes, “it’s that it’s never too late to live more fully, more freely, and more joyfully.”

Judy Mozes isn’t starting over. She’s starting louder.
