Koon Rijjeil, كون رجال
About this episode

He opens up about:

  • His battle with depression and the journey to healing
  • The pressure of high expectations and relentless self-criticism
  • Redefining masculinity on his own terms
  • The importance of knowing when to push—and when to pause
  • And the powerful moment he realized that no one is coming to save him

This episode isn’t polished. It’s real. And if you’re struggling, doubting yourself, or quietly fighting battles no one sees—this one’s for you.

🎙 Koon Rijjeil is a podcast about what it really means to be a man today. Vulnerability. Growth. Redefining strength.

One day or day one. You decide.
