## Resource

How do you rebuild your life after losing everything? In this inspiring episode of Luca's Insight Track, Luca Allam sits down with Abdurahman Afia—leadership advisor, executive coach, bestselling author of The Unlikely Leader, and one of the Middle East's most influential voices on leadership and personal growth. Abdurahman shares the extraordinary journey that shaped his life: growing up in privilege before experiencing homelessness, his search for meaning that led him from atheism and Judaism to Islam, the challenges of overcoming prejudice, losing friends in the pursuit of purpose, and the personal struggles that ultimately transformed him into the leader he is today. Together, they explore the true meaning of leadership, resilience, faith, identity, parenting, emotional intelligence, and why our greatest setbacks often become our greatest strengths. This episode is a powerful reminder that your past does not determine your future—and that the most meaningful transformations begin with a single question.In this episode:
