About this episode

Get my New York Times Bestselling book, Make Money Easy!

I sat down with Anas Bukhash, the biggest talk show host in Dubai and a successful entrepreneur running multiple businesses in the UAE, for a fascinating conversation about wealth, culture, and relationships. Having lived in both America and Dubai, Anas offers a unique perspective on how these contrasting societies approach money. He reveals how Dubai's entrepreneurial energy creates genuine wealth-building opportunities that many Americans struggle to find, despite the "American Dream" narrative. Through vulnerable reflections on his early marriage, subsequent divorce, and ten years of singlehood, Anas also shares his evolving journey toward emotional intimacy and the inner work he's doing with his therapist to understand his patterns. His insights on balancing business success with personal growth offer valuable wisdom for anyone seeking to build meaningful prosperity in both their financial and emotional lives.

In this episode you will learn:

  • How Dubai's entrepreneurial culture creates wealth-building opportunities that differ fundamentally from the American economic landscape
  • Why growing up in wealth versus earning it yourself creates different relationships with money and success
  • The surprising role that daily prayer plays in creating structured pauses for reflection and emotional regulation
  • How vulnerability and control issues in relationships mirror our approach to business and success
  • The critical difference between "casual" relationships and true emotional intimacy in creating lasting fulfillment
  • Why the strength of family units and support systems play a crucial role in Dubai's rapid development
  • How therapy can help identify unconscious patterns that affect both our business decisions and personal relationships
  • Why parenting styles often condition boys to suppress emotions, creating challenges for emotional expression later in life
