Making Adeel is a living record of one man's attempt to think more clearly.
Hosted by Adeel Mitha, each episode explores the intersection of psychology, philosophy, leadership, health, fatherhood, business, and the everyday experiences that shape who we become.
This isn't a show about having the answers. It's about asking better questions—and leaving each conversation a little more grounded than when it began.
