He's driven and reviewed cars for Bentley, Ferrari, McLaren, GM, all the names you can think of. He runs his own production company called Chronoscope Productions. Jay Leno wrote the foreword to one of his books. Sterling Moss wrote another one. The guy is the real deal.But what got me was how he got there.He was supposed to be a doctor. Egyptian family, you already know how that goes. And when he told his parents he was switching majors, he literally calls that conversation "Armageddon." If you grew up immigrant, this part is gonna hit.What I love about Basem's story is he didn't have a master plan. He cold called Ferrari one day. He cold called Porsche. He cold called Aston Martin. And somehow within a week he had four exotic cars in his garage. He said his neighbors thought he was a drug dealer. I couldn't make this up if I tried.We got into a lot in this one. Marriage, fatherhood, what it actually feels like to live every guy's dream and miss your family because of it. He's also got a 14 year old son and the story he told me about picking him up from school in a Ferrari will humble any dad watching this.Here's some of what we covered:How he told his immigrant parents he wasn't going to be a doctorThe cold calls that started his entire careerBuilding Chronoscope Productions from scratchThe unglamorous side of the dream job nobody talks aboutHis non negotiables with his wife and his marriage philosophyWhy his 14 year old son is not impressed by FerrarisHow short form content is changing auto journalismWhat Jay Leno is actually like behind the scenesWhy he loves analog 911s and what it means for car cultureThe biggest mistake he made starting his careerHis top 5 dream cars if money was no objectIf you're building something right now, or you're trying to turn what you love into a career, or you're stuck between what your family wants for you and what you actually want, this episode is for you.If you make it to the end, do me a favor and drop a comment letting me know which part hit you the most.

Welcome to Untitled Success!Season 3 is HERE! 🎙️In this episode, host Timothy Towfeless sits down with Ryan Emanuel Griffin,life coach, mentor, and founder of Heart2Soul. Emanuel grew up as apastor's kid in a military household on the East Coast, a home built onstructure, discipline, and faith. But underneath the surface, he wasquietly falling apart.He went to Africa in middle school and witnessed what he believed weremiracles: the blind seeing, the supernatural. He came home and prayedfor his dying grandmother. She passed anyway. That moment crackedeverything open.By college, Emmanuel was battling suicidal thoughts while maintaininga full academic scholarship at a biblical university; living a doublelife nobody around him could see. What pulled him back was one of themost unexpected things: a word study on his own name while standingoutside a party at his absolute lowest point.Today he runs Heart 2 Soul Legacy, a behavior modification and life coachingorganization that bridges psychology and theology to help people healcompletely, not just mentally, not just spiritually, but both. He workswith rehab clients, first responders, and at-risk youth, and is buildingone of the most ambitious programs we've heard on this show: a curriculuminside prisons that qualifies graduates to be hired directly by hiscompany and sent back into the communities they came from.This one will stay with you.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━📲 CONNECT WITH EMMANUEL GRIFFIN━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🌐 Website: heart2soullegacy.com📧 Email: contact@heart2soullegacy.com📸 Instagram: @heart2soullegacy━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🎙️ ABOUT UNTITLED SUCCESS━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Untitled Success is hosted by Timothy Towfeless.

Welcome to Untitled Success! Season 3 is HERE! 🎙️ In this episode, host Timothy Towfeless sits down with Michael Shehata, owner of Bethany Insurance, one of Southern California's most respected independent insurance brokerages. What started as a family business born from his mother's tears after 40 years of loyalty to someone else's company has grown into a 23-employee operation with departments, benefits, HR support, and a client base spanning residential, commercial, and specialty lines... all out of San Dimas, California.This one hits different.Michael gets completely unfiltered about the moment his company's sales dropped 50% after losing one key employee, how he swung from micromanaging everything to letting go of too much, and why both nearly destroyed the business. He breaks down the real cost of starting an insurance brokerage today, what California's wildfire crisis is doing to the insurance market, and the heartbreaking stories from Palisades and Eaton fire victims he reached out to personally, even when they weren't his clients. If you're thinking about starting your own business, trying to protect what you've already built, or just want to understand why your California home insurance bill is spiraling, this episode is for you.
