The
Nomad Futurist team has had a lot of great people on the podcast over the last
three and a half years, and a few personal experiences along the way as well.
In this episode, Nabeel and Phillip take the opportunity to recap the
first half of 2023, discuss future goals for the Foundation, and share some
insights on the industry.
The
duo takes a look back at their journey thus far and discusses a question they
get asked a lot: Why did they start this podcast?
Nabeel
shares:
“At the bottom of our hearts, it's
really a lot of passion to create awareness and leave this world a better place
than we've found it for the next generation.”
Phil
shares:
“I think it's also a vehicle for our
guests to share the kind of unspoken things that they've come across in their
journeys. It has provided a platform for people to take this kind of 30,000-foot
view of their own careers, of their own lives and find ways to articulate
things that they would not otherwise have been able to articulate - and what
we've learned in many of these cases has been profound.”
Educating
the younger generation is a main goal of the Foundation and an important topic
in this episode. Phil shares his view on what adults can do to aid in the next
generations success:
“We as a society, as a community, as
an industry and as parents can interject elements of our careers, elements of
what we do for a living into our kids' schooling, which would benefit not just
those kids, but the other kids in their class and the kids that come behind
them.”
According
to Nabeel, the real purpose of this podcast is to reach out to listeners who
will join the Foundation’s journey and be a change agent.
“We need everyone's help in spreading
the word, creating awareness and giving the next generation an opportunity to
be better than we are. Give them a career path, give them a reason to do good
things, I think that's really the core of the Foundation and what we are
striving for.”
