    Most people settle for unfulfilled potential, but in this episode, Rob Dubin explains how to intentionally design a life defined by purpose, resilience, and growth.

He worked alongside billionaires and former presidents, studying happiness and fulfilment along the way. Rob shares hard-earned lessons on adaptability, grit, and the principle that “how you do one thing is how you do everything.” We explore practical strategies for building resilience in yourself and your teams, aligning strengths, passions, and market needs through the concept of Ikigai, and helping the next generation pursue fulfillment over mere compensation. If you’re navigating change, leading others, or seeking deeper meaning in your work, this conversation will challenge your assumptions about success and equip you to turn everyday challenges into powerful opportunities for growth.
