Siamak Riahi, Founder and CEO of Riahi Patents, likens the early days of his immigration journey to standing in the middle of a tornado and being thrown from one place to another by the strong winds.
Despite feeling that way in the early days, Siamak has gone on to move a whopping 14 times across different cities and from the United States to Canada.
He joins me on The Newcomers Podcast to chat about:
Underestimating our support system
The importance of community
How each move changes us
Switching from an academic career path to entrepreneurship
Dealing with the immigrant survival mentality, and more.
This was a masterclass on how to approach immigrating mentally, especially if you are moving to a new country at a much older age.
Enjoy!
