Eden opens up about growing up between Israel and Russia, being bullied as a child, and finding confidence through music from an early age. She shares raw stories from her childhood and career, inserting herself into the entertainment industry as a child, navigating harsh criticism, and discovering her voice through it all. They dive deep into Eden’s experience representing Israel on the Eurovision stage in the wake of October 7th, and what it meant to carry the weight of an entire nation while facing global backlash, death threats, and overwhelming pressure. Through it all, Eden speaks with clarity, power, and emotional intelligence far beyond her years. The conversation also touches on self-worth, manifestation, mental strength, and the importance of having a North Star.

One of 2024’s breakout global stars, the pop singer-songwriter Eden Golan has staked a claim as one of most exciting new names in music after a star-making turn representing Israel at the 68th annual Eurovision Song Contest. She told New York Times: “I am here to show the voice of an entire nation.” While Eurovision’s global audience helped introduce Golan to the world, her journey to stardom dates back to a creative childhood. The Israeli-born Golan, who has spent her life living between Israel and Russia, originally performed for her family as a child before turning her passion for singing into a fledgling career. “This is the reason why I'm on this planet called earth, to use my music to make the world a better place.” She quickly turned her young dream into reality after a series of successive turns on competition series around the world, including New Wave Jr, The Voice Kids, and securing three gold medals at the World Championships of Performing Arts. For her turn on Eurovision, Golan found herself in the middle of the global conversation with the original song “Hurricane” serving as a deft commentary on the October 7th terror attacks. “The song is a tribute to the pain my country is experiencing and how we can’t disconnect from it.” Now, following her star-defining journey on Eurovision, Golan is in the studio working on her debut album, focused on her mission to heal a fractured world through her art. “Music has helped me so much through the years,” she says. “All I want to do is give back.”
