The Defiant Spirit

About Us

Meet Dr. Baruch "B" HaLevi

I’m Dr. Baruch HaLevi, but you can call me “B.” My mission? To help you own your story, unearth your purpose, and live unapologetically. For over 25 years, I’ve woven together ancient wisdom, modern science, and hard-won experience as a Logotherapist, Enneagram expert, Executive Coach, Rabbi, and Spiritual Guide. Let me be clear: I don’t deal in empty platitudes or one-size-fits-all advice.

My journey’s been unconventional—from leading spiritual communities to founding seven startups (two exiting publicly for over $75 million). Through every triumph and stumble, I’ve anchored to one truth: You always have a choice.

You can stay shackled to fear, autopilot, or victimhood—or embrace what my mentor Viktor Frankl taught: “Between stimulus and response there’s a space. In that space lies our freedom to choose our growth, our happiness, our very humanity.”

This is why I blend Logotherapy, the Enneagram, and transformational coaching. It’s not just about breaking limitations—it’s about reclaiming what’s yours: the power to respond deliberately, not react helplessly. To become truly response-able.

That’s the heart of my work. Not quick fixes, but lifelong transformation.

Want to know my north star? “True transformation isn’t about reacting to life—it’s about choosing your response and living with purpose.”

Let’s write your next chapter together.

“True transformation isn’t about reacting to life—it’s about choosing your response and living with purpose.”

A Philosophy Born from Experience

Dr. B’s approach is grounded in two ancient yet profoundly practical disciplines:

Reveal Your Core Self with the Enneagram

Discover your personality structure, including your motivations, fears, and blind spots, to unlock deeper self-awareness and growth.

Find Meaning Through
Logotherapy

Use Viktor Frankl’s transformative framework to uncover your purpose, especially during life’s most challenging moments.

From Theory to
Practice

These aren’t abstract ideas—Dr. B has applied these tools to his own life, refining them through personal transformation and decades of experience.

Guidance Grounded
in Empathy

Having faced triumphs, failures, and the struggles of self-discovery, Dr. B meets you where you are and helps you rise to your full potential.

What is Defiant Spirit?

At Defiant Spirit, we challenge the status quo of personal development. We believe transformation isn’t about more information—it’s about deeper connection. Our process integrates three essential elements:

Awareness

through the Enneagram: Understand who you are at your core.

Meaning

via Logotherapy: Discover the “why” behind your existence.

Actionable Practices

Implement strategies that align your life with your values.

This isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level changes. It’s about reshaping your life from the inside out, so you can rise above the noise and reclaim your power.

Our Why: Why We Exist

We’re here because the world doesn’t need another seminar, webinar, or motivational pep talk. It needs tools that work. Tools that are personal, purposeful, and proven.

Most of us are stuck in cycles of action and reaction, conditioned by society to chase goals that aren’t our own. At Defiant Spirit, we help you break free from these patterns. Because life isn’t about surviving—it’s about thriving.

Dr. B Says It Best:

“You’re not here to be defined by your past, your patterns, or your pain. You’re here to respond, to rise, and to reclaim the life that’s waiting for you. That’s what Defiant Spirit is about.”
