In this episode, I chat with my amazing mother-in-law, Farzaneh Barker, about her life experiences and the values she’s passed on to me. She shares how she first saw me as a "sunshine" and talks about her education in Iran, India, and the U.S.

Farzaneh encouraged me to pursue a degree for its life validation, even though I was initially hesitant. She also talks about the joy of seeing her children succeed and how that brings her fulfillment.

We also discuss her views on money, accountability, and parenting. Farzaneh emphasizes being true to yourself, learning from others, and facing life’s challenges with patience and accountability.
