Part 1 was about building happiness from the inside. Part 2 goes underneath it, releasing four concepts one at a time, starting with karam: why do bad things happen to good people, and what changes when you stop reading your life as a punishment.
A Calgary realtor of almost 17 years who built his life around spirituality and now mentors youth on it. Ricky unpacks happiness as something built from the inside: identity beyond your job title, why comparison keeps you stuck, and how detachment actually works in practice.
Tech executive and author of Being Boundless. The longest conversation in the catalog: ego versus arrogance, career ethics, failure and recovery, family expectations across two cultures, and a long, intimate second half on prayer, death, and faith.
"Be hard on the problem, soft on the person."
Brampton realtor, martial artist, and food bank volunteer. David talks about chasing money in his twenties and what helped when the chasing stopped paying off, plus an unpolished, practical conversation about anger and doomscrolling.
What Movember actually funds beyond the mustache, and why men in Canada, especially in immigrant and South Asian households, are taught silence instead of language for what they're feeling. Ends with concrete ways to check in on the men in your life.
Student therapist and founder of the men's mental health page Into His Mind. Hassaan talks about growing up with social anxiety and depression that never got named out loud at home, the double stigma of being South Asian and male, and breaking intergenerational silence.
