Anat Waxman, one of the most respected figures in the Israeli entertainment industry, is embarking on an optimistic new chapter in her life. The 64-year-old actress, a three-time Ophir Award winner with countless iconic roles in television, cinema, and theater—including the legendary 'Daphna' in the series 'Life Isn't Everything' and the film 'Nina's Tragedies'—has found an inspiring way to return to work and share her wealth of knowledge.

In a new video posted to her Instagram account, dressed in a vibrant red dress and radiating energy, Waxman revealed her new venture: acting coaching and mentorship for aspiring actors.

"Hi, I'm Anat Waxman, and I've decided to teach anyone interested in preparing for auditions, applying to acting schools, or those simply in need of guidance," she shared with a beaming smile. "I would be very happy to help. Reach out to me, it will be fun."

This new beginning follows a complex and deeply personal period for the actress. Last year, Waxman opened her heart in an interview for the podcast 'From the Break,' where she spoke candidly about a two-and-a-half-year battle with severe depression.

She described the immense challenges she faced, the helplessness she felt navigating the psychiatric system, and the suicidal thoughts that haunted her during her darkest moments, when she felt that "there is no light, you are in the dark all the time." Despite the hardships she has endured, the esteemed actress is showing remarkable resilience as she embarks on this new path.
