What if the secret to thriving isn’t about being the toughest in the room, but the most adaptable?In this episode, Junaid Ahmed sits down with Rand Selig—veteran investment banker, author of "Thriving," and master of intentional living—to uncover the hidden strategies behind building a life and career filled with purpose, energy, and fulfillment.

From turning down a giant corporate offer to redefining what it means to be successful, Rand shares raw stories and practical tools for anyone ready to break free from society’s expectations. Discover how resilience, relationships, and a service mindset can transform setbacks into opportunities—and why your only real competition is the person in the mirror.

What You'll Learn:

  • Why resilience is about bouncing back, not just being tough—think rubber ball, not metal.

  • The power of saying “no” to deals that don’t align with your values, even when Goliath comes knocking.

  • How to stop letting society define your success and start living by your own standards.

  • The three pillars of a thriving mindset: service, intentional relationships, and relentless positivity.

  • Why your greatest growth comes from evolving past your former self—not outshining others.
