Should You Quit a Job That Doesn’t Feel Right?

Why do we quit things in life, and how do those moments shape who we become?

In this episode of Game On: Life, Leadership & Laughs, Abhishek Shah, Moustafa El Chiati, and Fahmi Al Shawwa dive into the uncomfortable but defining moments when you walk away from something. A job, a team, an opportunity, or even a belief about yourself.

What starts as a light conversation about the strange things we believed as kids quickly turns into honest stories about quitting jobs, confronting fear, navigating career pivots, and the lessons that only come from taking risks early in life.

They also explore why friendships become harder to build as we grow older, the difference between wide social circles and deep relationships, and how experiences, travel, and opening your home can shape meaningful connections.

From career courage to the realities of adult friendships, this episode blends humor, real stories, and thoughtful reflection on what actually matters as life moves forward.
