What does it take to rise from nothing in Iran to a world series poker champion on the global stage? Melika Razavi's life story reads like an epic novel, filled with challenges that would have broken many, but which instead forged an unstoppable force of nature. Born near the Caspian Sea in Iran, Melika's rebellious spirit emerged early as she defied societal restrictions on women. Riding bicycles when it was forbidden, practicing Kung Fu, attending theater against her family's wishes – these small acts of defiance laid the foundation for a woman who would refuse to accept limitations throughout her life. At 15, facing the prospect of an arranged marriage, Melika escaped to South Africa with her mother who had been separated from her children for six years. Their reunion and subsequent struggles, including arriving to find her mother's husband had sold everything they owned, created the crucible that shaped Melika's extraordinary resilience. Standing on a rainy beach with nothing to their name, her mother spoke words that would become Melika's north star: "Remember this day well, because one day you'll look back and see how far you've gone." The podcast takes us through Melika's remarkable journey: working in retail at 16, juggling education with night shifts at clubs, opening her own sports massage clinic, and her eventual discovery of poker. Her path to becoming a World Series of Poker bracelet winner in 2020 wasn't just about skill, but about approaching the game with the same philosophy she applies to life: "Sometimes you get a bad beat, but you keep going until you win." Even when facing discrimination in the poker world due to her Iranian heritage, Melika refused to be deterred. With over 2 million Instagram followers today, Melika uses her platform to advocate for freedom in Iran while continuing to build businesses and pursue new dreams. Her story isn't just inspiring – it's a masterclass in creating your own destiny regardless of where you begin. As she puts it, "I believe our life is like a book that you write. So write it good, because when you look back, you're going to say, 'Wow, I've done an amazing job.'" Listen now and let Melika's journey challenge you to break free of them.
