My life has been an adventure. 

If I told you stories, you'd cry (read more)

I've always been an "outsider".

I wanted to be a Buddhist monk when I was 10 - shortly after my parents divorce. 

I got into drugs, alcohol, petty crime at age 12 

(Don’t worry, I haven't touched drugs or alcohol since I was 14)

And then things got interesting…

I bounced around between my parents. 

Experienced bullying, abuse, betrayal, and neglect. 

Learned about Islam and became Muslim. 

I worked for an international relief agency. 

It was the 90’s so I saw the horrors of the Bosnian war (systematic rape and genocide)

The Kashmiri conflict (brutal military occupation)

The Babri masjid massacres in India (people hacked with machetes and burned alive)

The chaos in Central Asia after the fall of the Soviet Union (families with children crossing the Dushanbe river)

I also lived in Chicago and experienced:

Carjackings (3 of my friends have been carjacked)

Drive by shootings (at the park)

Home burglaries.

The assault and battery of my mom by an armed robber. 

Police helicopter air raids. 

I have friends that have been shot - and I have friends that have shot others. 

Because I lived in Rogers Park (the most ethnically diverse neighborhood in the United States) I had:

Cambodian friends. 

Eritrean friends. 

Romanian friends. 

Bosnian friends. 

Black friends. 

Irish Catholic friends. 

Mexican friends. 

I have childhood friends that have seen war and killing in their home countries - prior to coming to the US. 

As a result of my upbringing- I committed my life to spreading Islam because I saw (and see) it as a solution to a lot of problems. 

I dedicated my life to it. 

And I got married at the age of 19. 

My parents betrayed me and my new bride because of their hatred for each other. 

I spent the next 20 years teaching, speaking, and writing about Islam. 

I thought I would be a political prisoner at 25 and dead by 30. 

I know people that have been abducted and tortured by foreign governments. 

But I consider myself blessed. 

Allah has shown me all of this pain, but kept me just far enough from it that it didn’t make me go crazy. 

As a result, I have strong opinions.

I could care less about more friends, approval from strangers on the internet, or impressing any of you.

I've always wanted freedom.

Now I build systems that allow me to be free using books and LinkedIn.

Occasionally, I help others do the same.

I had the chance to interview Google's Chief Learning Officer, Brian Glaser, Ph.D. for Forbes to learn how they're approaching EQ in the AI Era.

What follows are my top 3 takeaways from our interview:

1. EQ + AI = Business Impact

Rather than pit EQ against AI, Google combines the two. 

"We have teams exploring how AI tools can surface discussion prompts that will help with [emotional intelligence]," Glaser told me. 

Some teams are exploring how prompts could be used to simulate feedback scenarios before having a difficult conversation. 

Others are experimenting with ways AI can provide real-time insight into collaboration patterns. The idea being that leaders will be able to identify when their teams are over-extended or misaligned.

2. You need to adopt a mindset of continuous reinvention.

"An organization’s ability to transform is fundamentally tethered to its people’s capacity to reinvent themselves, their teams, and the very nature of their work,” Glaser explained. And this process of self-reinvention demands curiosity, humility, and emotional intelligence.

He pointed to positive examples like Nintendo, which started as a playing-card company in the 1880s, and YouTube, which began as a failed dating site. 

3. AI used thoughtfully can free up time for deep interpersonal work (i.e., coaching, interviewing subject matter experts, and mentoring).

Glaser detailed an example of Google's onboarding team: “Until recently, the team spent many hours curating decks and documents. Now, NotebookLM assembles personalized onboarding guides in a matter of minutes, complete with summaries, key resources, and even a podcast the leader can listen to on the go.”

With this time freed up, the onboarding team spends more time in personalized coaching conversations and one-on-one meetings with new leaders.
