Luxury Unplugged: A Journey of Resilience with Yubim Kogan
Neeti Keswani: Welcome to another episode of Luxury Unplugged. This week, we again have a self-improvement focus. Today's episode is a powerful journey of resilience, purpose, and self-improvement. We have with us Yubim Kogan, a five-time immigrant, Olympic-level athlete, best-selling author, and founder of wingforheres.org. After a decade away, rebuilding from crisis, he has returned with profound lessons. Let's hear from him. Let's explore how self-improvement isn't just about growth, but about keeping promises to yourself and others.
Welcome, Yubim.
Yubim Kogan: Thank you, Neeti. It's nice to be here.
Neeti Keswani: Thank you so much for taking some time out for us and for our viewers and helping us understand from your story. What nuggets can we have in our self-improvement journey? How can we learn from your lessons? Right. So, let's get started.

Neeti Keswani: Okay. It's a really good question. And I think the main thing that I would like to share with your listeners is that if you want to achieve things that are big, you know, you have to have big goals. They have to come from the inside. I think in today's day and age, it's really difficult to get distracted or, as I say, hijacked by social media and seeing what other people have and what other people do.
But for me, I was fortunate to experience life in many different countries on different continents and I was fortunate to accomplish big goals, but the thing is that I did it all for me. I have never spent an extended period of time doing something for somebody else. In other words, chasing some flashy goal or dream was never important to me. But little things that some people think, "Why would you want to do something like that?" If it came from the inside, I always followed it.
And I found that it's a lot easier to get through difficulties—and we all have difficulties on the way—when the goal is your own. I think when you see somebody's resume, it seems like things have come easily, but big things don't come easily to anyone. Everyone has to work through things; everyone has to be dedicated. And if it's important to you, and especially if you love doing it, then it's a completely different game. So I'd say if you love the dream that you're going after, you have a very high probability of achieving it.
