Hugh Wahla has certainly lived an extraordinary life.

He has experienced atrocities you would not wish on your worst enemy.

Losing his Mom in a tragic accident and being sent to Pakistan to live as a 6 years old, taught him harsh realities and early life lessons. 

It also forged a belief system that helped him navigate life's challenges and allowed him to excel in his career.

While serving as CEO for a Globally recognised brand, he was introduced to the concept of 'Productive Working Life' which played a role in deciding his next steps.

Many lessons in this conversation!
