What happens when a random encounter at a café sparks a conversation that unfolds into a captivating story?

Get ready for a compelling episode that’s bound to challenge your perspectives! Join me as I welcome Kian Alberto, whose life story reads like a screenplay of triumph and struggle. From a three-year-old soccer prodigy to navigating the complexities of a multicultural identity, Kian's journey is anything but ordinary.

But that’s just the beginning. As we peel back the layers of Kian's experiences, we delve into a bold critique of academia—does it truly prepare us for the harsh realities of life? With tension brewing between our differing viewpoints, we embark on a philosophical exploration of what happiness really means. Is it found in enduring pain and sacrifice, or is it an internal state of being?

With each twist and turn in our conversation, you’ll find yourself questioning everything you thought you knew about success, self-discovery, and the role of education. Kian’s insights are raw, honest, and at times, provocative forcing us all to confront our own beliefs.

Don’t miss this episode where we navigate the fine line between dreams and reality. Tune in and prepare for an unforgettable discussion that could change how you see your own path of happiness!
