My Generation with Ines

With my friends David and Michael, we discuss adulting, how they left their home countries and how personal responsibility played its role to shape them.

I enjoyed this one,

Haithem Kchaou, CEO of Reedz, an app that summerises books and podcasts in Arabic  in audio format including English bestsellers to arabic.  Haithem shares his journey on choosing the  StartUp path and the different challenges it comes with it at a young age.

This is a mini series of audio snippets from books i've read. We dive this time into Essentialism by Greg Mckeown and what does it mean to explore and then focus on something and commit to it. Enjoy. 

Do you find yourself doing things just for the sake of doing things and pretending that you are working? Or doing many things, wasting so much efforts with minimal output? 
In this episode, Dafne Sortorio shares her own journey to a conscious productive life and gives PRACTICAL tools and little tricks that we can implement in our everyday's life to be more consciously productive which eventually helps you create more time for yourself and your loved ones.

Alaa Ben Abdallah is not your typical student. After high school, she started nutrition studies in Tunis but she always felt that something was off and that is not her path. That did not take long for her to change. She participated in Thomas Jefferson scholarship and spent one year in the US as an exchange student and studied psychology.  After returning home to Tunisia, she went for the real adventure to study in the leadership academy in Rwanda defying all the stereotypes and how people perceive education in Africa. 
Alaa is the first Tunisian to get Mandela scholarship  and she  shares what does it mean to be African and how we can contribute bridging the gap 

Alaa shares her inspiring story on discovering the world, Africa, and most importantly, herself. 

Here are couple of books Alaa recommends:

- The danger of a single story: Chimamanda Adichie 
- The perils of obedience: Stanley Milgram
- Music and Politics in Africa. Social Dynamics: Allen. L
- Wealth of nations: Adam Smith 
 

my guests Yasmine and Juano both had to go through unemployment  during the pandemic and they managed to land jobs they wanted. They shared their learnings, routine as an unemployed, how they took care of their mental health, how they approached strategically their job search, and more!
This episode definitely can help you to have a different perspective during your job search!
Enjoy!

In this episode of my generation with Ines, Mohamed Fadel, an author, entrepreneur, and former NGO leader, shares with us his story of navigating uncertainty and how he embraced getting comfortable with being uncomfortable. This open-hearted conversation we talk about success, pressure, our 20's as youngsters, ego, and meaning. He shares the journey he went through while writing his memoir "Grayscale: A Memoir of an Introverted Leader."
and how he came in peace with accepting that all of us are a work in progress and the so called 'perfect' state does not exist.  He also shares the main 3 lessons he learned from leading AIESEC globally, the world's largest youth organization. 

In this episode, Blair Rachel Jones takes us on her personal journey of growth. 
How she went from a broke bartender to a soul and fit entrepreneur. She hit rock bottom in her early twenties and on a the next day of a party, she decided that it is about time to twist the plot of her own narrative.  She tells us about what it took her to do so, starting from self-awareness, discipline, detachment, and what it means to honor our feelings and to be present. 

This is a human story that I hope it rhymes with you and brings you a different perspective to your perception of your own reality.  Happy new year! 

Sustainability.. A word we hear often, it sounds for many as a fancy extra ingredient for companies to look good in their branding strategy. THIS conversation will shift your mindset about this topic. My guest Monaem Ben Lellahom, CEO of Sustainable Square, challenges you to approach the SDGs as 17 pandemics, stop treating the sustainability topic from a charity perspectives, and make money while doing good. He thinks that Coronavirus helped raising awareness about sustainability and climate change more than Greta has even done and we are in a great time in history to leverage on this momentum. 

Yalla! Listen and let us know what you think and what will you do about this topic!

Covid-19 impacted the job market heavily. Many of my generation lost their jobs and found themselves facing "job insecurity. With my guest Dali Chabaane, a senior talent acquisition based in Canada, we talk about what is it like to be a recruiter in such challenging times, how should  job seekers approach their search and what are the things to keep in my mind to build the right career.
