In this episode, we sit down with Omar Khan – father of six, real estate entrepreneur, and a man who walked away from success in the UK to protect his children’s future.

We explore a story that every parent needs to hear: why Omar left behind a thriving business to start over in Dubai – all for the sake of his kids. 

He shares what life was like raising a family in London, the moral battles parents are facing today, and how his own childhood shaped the father he became.

Sometimes, the best thing you can do for your family is leave everything behind.
