TW: cancer, loss, and grief. I cried on camera for the first time. Five episodes in, and I've kept it together through every conversation. But sitting across from Barbara Want, hearing her tell this story, I couldn't. June 2005. Barbara had just published her first book. She threw a party. Her 3-year-old boys were there. Her husband Nick got her a little desk mount that said "author" because he knew she'd always wanted to publish a book. She was so excited. So proud. It was the most beautiful moment. And within a few days, the whole thing crumbled. Nick had cancer. Barbara was angry at herself for not having suspected. She went with him to the operating theater, trying to stay strong for him, for the boys. The minute he went through the doors, she collapsed on the floor. Sitting there, listening to her, I realized this is what At Work With™ is actually about. Not just the wins. Not just the career pivots or the success stories. The moments when your dream arrives and your life falls apart at the same time. And what it takes to rebuild after that. 🎧 NEW EPISODE Monday — Barbara Want, BBC journalist, author, and one of the most vulnerable conversations I've ever had.

Why Hard Work Isn't Enough: The Truth About "Unfair Advantages” | Hasan Kubba

He breaks down the MILES framework for identifying your unfair advantages, explains why disadvantages are often double-edged swords, and offers a grounded, honest take on what it actually takes to get a traditional publishing deal without a platform.🔗 CONNECT WITH HASAN KUBBA🌐 Website: https://www.hasankubba.com📚 The Unfair Advantage: https://www.theunfairacademy.com💼 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/startuphasan🐦 X/Twitter: https://x.com/StartupHasanTIMESTAMPS00:00 🌟 Meet Hasan Kubba00:18 💡 The Core Idea: It's Not Just Hard Work00:54 👋 Welcome to At Work With01:19 🧒 Growing Up Shy — Hasan's Formative Years02:12 🌍 From Iraq to the UK — Cultural Expectations of Success03:28 🎓 Economics Degree — And Why Banking Wasn't the Answer05:08 😰 The Fear, Perfectionism & Procrastination Nobody Talks About07:46 💼 Getting Jobs in Sales to Light the Fire08:30 🌴 Making It Work — Passive Income and Traveling Southeast Asia10:33 📖 How the Book Idea Was Born — Meeting Co-author Ash Ali12:07 🤔 Why "Just Work Hard" Is Dangerous Advice14:18 🏆 Introducing the MILES Framework15:01 💰 M — Money (Resources at Your Disposal)15:21 🧠 I — Intelligence and Insight16:27 📍 L — Location and Luck16:49 🎓 E — Education and Expertise17:56 👑 S — Status (The Most Powerful of All)19:05 🔄 How Disadvantages Can Become Advantages20:40 🪞 Self-Awareness Is Step One22:09 💪 Double Down on Your Strengths, Not Your Weaknesses22:16 📚 Getting a Book Deal Without a Following24:37 💡 The "Idea Worth Spreading" Test for Your Book27:08 🗺️ The Map Is Not the Territory31:20 🎬 Fight Club, Office Space, and Defining Success on Your Own Terms33:23 🧔 Hasan's Dad, the Pub, and Structural Barriers to Promotion37:09 🤖 Adaptability Is the Key Skill in the Age of AI38:21 ⚡ Rapid Fire Round41:38 👨‍👧‍👦 What Hasan Will Tell His Kids About Success#atworkwith #podcast #business #entrepreneurship #unfairadvantage #advantage #success
