🎙️ From Refugee to Powerhouse: The Untold Story of Roy Ratnavel 🔥✨
In this episode, we sit down with Roy Subendran Ratnavel — bestselling author, executive vice president at CI Financial, and a true symbol of resilience. But this isn’t your typical business interview. We went beyond the titles and got into real talk, personal stories, struggles, identity, and everything in between.
Roy opens up about his journey from surviving war in Sri Lanka to becoming a top figure in Canadian finance — and the inner battles that shaped him along the way. We also had fun asking him unexpected, personal questions (yes, including his favorite Tamil dish 🍛 and who’d play him in a movie 🎬).
