Riaz Meghji
You are one conversation away from changing your life. That's exactly what happened to Riaz Meghji back in 2002, and he's never looked back. Riaz was headed towards becoming a financial investment banker, something everyone expected of him, until a friend challenged him to pursue a different path and follow his dream of becoming a broadcaster. Today he's created yet another new chapter for himself as a human connection expert, helping organizations and teams build high trust cultures through meaningful conversations.
“...I had been just wrapping up a degree after four and a half years, focusing in finance, thinking that was the path and you know, honestly, it made me really reflect on, ‘Is this my path? Is this my parents’ path? Is this my imposter syndrome? Is this a lack of confidence to just go out and do something special?’ And I remember I looked at Lafi, I said, ‘Hey, man, thanks for the compliment. But you know, I don't think I can go home and say that to my parents.’ And he leaned in, in this moment and did not hesitate, and he said, ‘When are you going to stop playing safe, and start living your life?…’”
Riaz is helping us all to stop playing it safe and live our best lives, putting connection at the forefront. Visit riazmeghji.com
