She arrived in America with $90, two suitcases, and no guarantee of survival.
No language.
No safety net.
No certainty she’d ever see her family again.
What followed was a 23-year career at Goldman Sachs — but that’s not the real story.
In this episode, Tanya Tylevich shares what it actually means to live without freedom… and why she’s more afraid of silence than criticism.
We talk about:
Growing up Jewish in the Soviet Union
Living under a system where your future was decided for you
Losing everything — home, identity, even your diploma
Starting over in America with broken English and no money
Why education is really about learning how to adapt
Courage vs. passion (and why you need both)
The danger of perfectionism
Why freedom isn’t just given — it’s practiced
Speaking up when it’s uncomfortable (especially now)
How real innovation comes from connecting people, ideas, and cultures
What legacy actually means
This is not a “hustle” story.
It’s a truth story.
If you’ve ever felt afraid to speak your mind…
If you’ve ever taken freedom for granted…
If you’re trying to build something meaningful in a chaotic world…
This conversation will stay with you.
