Today’s podcast episode is the second in a new series titled “A Well-Lived Life.” In this series, you will learn what a well-lived life is and how the definition shifts depending on your culture, race, generation, and/or gender. I thought it was a great theme to kick off a new year and I hope you agree. 

My guests are Yusuf and Gina Abudi, partners at Abudi Consulting. They are colleagues and friends of mine who agreed to break money silence with me about their definitions of well-lived lives. Yusuf’s perspective is especially insightful as he grew up in Palestine and came to the United States as a refugee. His story is truly one of going from poverty to middle class and how together their commitment to making the world a better place is inspiring. Read more about Gina and Yusuf here. 

Here are 5 things you will learn by listening to this episode:

• The role of curiosity in defining a well-lived life
• The moment Yusuf realized life was full of economic inequalities
• How Gina has conquered undercharging as a consultant
• How owning a business together has strengthened their value proposition
• How philanthropy is a shared value and a key ingredient to their well-lived lives.
