This episode forms part of a special series exploring the question: “What does it mean to be a man in today’s world?” through conversations with men from different backgrounds, professions, and cultures. The series contributes to the wider mission of creating Gender Harmony in a Mosaic World, a world where men are able to fully be themselves, live fulfilled lives, and add value to others.</span></p><p><br></p><p><span style="background-color: transparent;">Today’s guest is </span><strong style="background-color: transparent;">Gamal Turawa</strong><span style="background-color: transparent;">, a cultural change specialist, international speaker, and founder of Purple Frog Connections.
