#277- Inez Atili | إينيز أتيلي : A Singer's Life: The Raw Reality

Majda was an engineer — electrical and computer, honors degree, master's on a corporate scholarship, managing the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey for an international company. Good salary, good companies, no passion. In March 2025 she gave social media one year. Twelve months later: 1.5 million followers, and her first podcast — this one.A masterclass in the things nobody teaches you. Why therapy isn't a last resort. Why jealousy is a compass. Why your grandmother's marriage lasted (and it's not the reason you think). Why Beauty and the Beast is a toxic relationship manual. Why the victim role feels so good — and why it traps you. And why the person who gets attached fast isn't in love — they're just starving.#hikmatwehbipodcast #podcast #arabic_podcast #mjay #psychology #mentalhealth #therapy #selfworth #relationships #toxicrelationships #selfawareness #manifestation #dubai #saudiarabia #womenempowerment #wstudiodxb

Riaan was broke, on drugs, and sleeping on people's couches in Cape Town. Soleen was stuck in an interior design career she hated in Dubai. They met through an Instagram story, talked for seven months without meeting, and told each other "I think I'm going to marry you" before they'd ever been in the same room. In this episode — the airport no-show, the 100-dirham wedding rings, the first year they almost got divorced, and how a couple workout video filmed during COVID turned two people with nothing into one of the most-watched couples in the Middle East.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🎙️ Who are Riaan & Soleen?A South African-Iraqi couple based in Dubai who went viral during COVID with their couple workout videos. What started as a fun idea became a full-time career, a cross-cultural movement, and a love story that proves the right partner matters more than the right bank balance. With millions of followers across platforms, they've become one of the Middle East's most beloved creator couples — known for their raw honesty, cultural bridge-building, and the energy they bring to everything they do.#hikmatwehbipodcast #podcast #arabic_podcast #riaanandsoleen #couplesgoals #crosscultural #lovestory #dubai #iraq #southafrica #marriage #motivation #wstudiodxb

From a kid who grew up touching poverty in a Lebanese village to the man who says he's "monetized spirituality" — this is not your typical finance conversation.In this episode, Charbel Khoury talks about what money does to your soul — how a hobby dies the moment you get paid for it, how seventy hours on a motorcycle with no music gave him more clarity than any boardroom, and how a client's obsession with a green Porsche traced back to a girl he liked twenty years ago. Why the opposite of play isn't work — it's depression. Why "God is with you" is sometimes used to keep people broke. And what a seventy-year-old man staring at chisel marks on a Greek column can teach you about the life most people are too busy to live.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🎙️ Who is Charbel Khoury?A Lebanese financial behavior consultant and founder of Atlantis — a financial coaching firm now in its 17th year. Charbel has spent nearly 30 years helping people untangle their relationship with money, fear, and self-worth. He's writing his next book, Abundance, and believes your spiritual tokens matter more than your bank balance.#hikmatwehbipodcast#podcast#arabic_podcast#charbelkhoury#atlantisfinancials#شربل_خوري#حكمت_وهبي#حكمت_وهبي_بودكاست#wstudiodxb#financialfreedom#investing#spirituality#abundance#personalfinance#mindset

From a girl who covered her mouth every time she smiled to the woman teaching an entire generation how to stop apologizing for who they are — this is not the conversation you'd expect from a content creator with two million followers.In this episode of the Hikmat Wehbi Podcast, Waed Qasem doesn't just talk about self-love — she talks about what it actually costs to get there. The beauty standards that told her to lighten her skin, straighten her hair, and shrink her laugh. The close friend she lost to a toxic boyfriend who forced a choice between them. Walking into a university building, realizing it was the media department instead of law — and never looking back. Punishing herself as a child by placing a glass of ice water in front of her and refusing a sip until she'd earned it. Processing her own emotions by talking to herself out loud, every single day. People who live inside daydream bubbles because reality asks too much of them. And the one thing she still can't do — ask someone for help — and why she won't say yes to anyone until she figures that out.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🎙️ Who is Waed Qasem?A Jordanian content creator, TV presenter, and one of the Arab world's most recognizable voices on self-development and women's empowerment. She studied journalism and media, and built a platform of over two million followers across Instagram and YouTube — all by speaking to young Arab women in the honest, no-sugarcoating "big sister" tone that nobody else was offering. Her content covers confidence, toxic relationships, boundaries, and what it actually takes to build a life on your own terms.#hikmatwehbipodcast#podcast#arabic_podcast#waedqasem#وعد_قاسم#حكمت_وهبي#حكمت_وهبي_بودكاست#wstudiodxb#selflove#toxicrelationships#confidence

From Egypt to Everest to Denali — the story of a woman who climbed the highest peaks on Earth and still couldn't outrun the question: "why aren't you married?"In this episode of the Hikmat Wehbi Podcast, Manal Rostom doesn't talk about summits the way you'd expect. She talks about the bus accident that almost killed her at nineteen, the guilt that pushed her toward God, and the moment on Everest when she asked herself: would I still do this if no one ever found out? She talks about being the only Arab on the mountain, being looked down on by climbers who couldn't believe she belonged, and training at Ski Dubai because that's what she had. And she talks about the thing no one wants to hear — that she's forty-six, single, and happy, and that the world still doesn't know what to do with that.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🏔️ Who is Manal Rostom?An Egyptian athlete, mountaineer, marathon runner, and content creator based in Dubai. She studied pharmacy, earned a master's in clinical pharmacy, then walked away from it all. She became the first Egyptian woman to summit Everest, completed six of the Seven Summits, ran the six World Marathon Majors, and built a career in content creation and motivational speaking — all while wearing the hijab and redefining what that looks like to the world.#hikmatwehbipodcast#podcast#arabic_podcast#manalrostom#منال_رستم#حكمت_وهبي#حكمت_وهبي_بودكاست#wstudiodxb#everest#sevensummits

From a small salary in Dubai to a Netflix reality show, the story of a self-made Indian entrepreneur who built a business empire, earned the title Mr. Golden Visa, married after a ten-minute decision — nearly divorced on camera — and chose to stay and fight for his family when walking away would have been easier.In this episode of the Hikmat Wehbi Podcast, we sit down with Dyuti Parruck — Mr. Golden Visa from Netflix's Desi Bling — for an unfiltered, deeply personal conversation that goes far beyond the show: his marriage to Irina and the real story behind their most controversial scenes, growing up without a father, going to therapy alone when his wife refused, the cultural clash that almost broke them, and why he's grateful the internet chose to hate him instead of her. A talk that blends vulnerability, business, culture & what it really takes to hold a family together.━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━🏆 Who is Dyuti Parruck?Dyuti Parruck is an Indian entrepreneur based in Dubai and the founder of Decisive Zone — one of the UAE's top three business setup companies.

He grew up without a father, was raised entirely by women, scaled his company from 10 people to over 200, and went from having 10 photos on Instagram to becoming a globally recognized face — all in under two years.#hikmatwehbipodcast #podcast #desibling #Dyuti_parruck #mrgoldenvisa #netflix #dubai #decisivezone #wstudiodxb #حكمت_وهبي #حكمت_وهبي_بودكاست
