Robbie Ansary’s story starts as a refugee from Afghanistan when he and his family fled their home as a result of the Soviet invasion in 1980.

In this episode, Robbie shares what it was like to leave everything behind and cross the border under life-threatening conditions, how a chance encounter helped his family rebuild their lives in America, and how seeing HVA (a “mini-TVA” built by USAID) at nine years old sparked a dream that eventually led him to a 34-year career with TVA.

My Morning Cup is hosted by Mike Costa of Costa Media Advisors and produced by SpeakEasy Productions.
