I Missed My Children’s Lives While Building My Career (Before It's Too Late)

Описание: I spent years chasing success, promotions, and financial security—believing I was doing it all for my family.
But one day, I looked back… and realized I had missed my children’s lives while building my career.

In this deeply emotional and honest story, I share the painful truth about what success cost me. The school plays I never attended. The birthdays I missed. The moments I told myself I’d “make time for later.” Later never came.

This video is not about blaming work. It’s about understanding what really matters before it’s too late.

If you are in your 20s, 30s, 40s—or even older—this message could save you decades of regret. I wish someone had told me this earlier.

In this video, you’ll discover:

Why chasing success can quietly steal your family life

The hidden cost of “providing” instead of being present

How ambition blinds us to what we’ll miss forever

What I would do differently if I could go back

A powerful reminder for parents, professionals, and dream-chasers


This is raw. This is real.
No filters. No exaggeration. Just truth from a life lived the hard way.
