The Collapse of FTX: What Went Wrong With Sam Bankman-Fried’s Empire?

We’re shifting the focus from finance to a broader exploration of creating a more human-centered world–drawing inspiration from a story by Desmond Tutu. He reflects on his experience in financial coaching, highlighting the realization that financial issues often stem from deeper emotional and systemic problems.

With society losing touch with its humanity in various aspects, including relationships, emotions, and lifestyle choices, there’s a need to reevaluate our approach to food, relationships, expressing emotions, and lifestyle to build a more fulfilling and human-centered life.

Join us on a transformative journey in this new episode!
