Ahmed Hallajian — Reinvention, Restlessness, and the Clarity to Change Direction
When Ahmed Hallajian quit his job at Amazon, it wasn’t part of a grand plan — just another turning point in a life marked by reinvention. A restless curiosity had already led him from accounting to YouTube, from coding bootcamps to big tech. But beneath the career pivots was a deeper question: What do I actually want? In the spring of 2024, a conversation with a friend led Ahmed to Vedic Meditation — and everything began to shift.
In this episode, Ahmad shares how meditation brought clarity to his internal chaos, why he now sees his twenties as a time of tuning into the signal (not the noise), and how a Seinfeld obsession may have planted the seed for it all. From burnout to balance, distraction to direction, this is a story about pausing long enough to hear your own inner voice — and having the courage to follow it.
