On today’s episode of Try Life On, everything comes full circle for Maurice as he reflects on the impact of his journey and philosophy. While building the framework for a fulfilling life, it's easy to wonder if your efforts are making a real difference in the lives of others.


Enter Sally Mahamdeh, a former Google executive living in Paris, who connected with Maurice via LinkedIn. After noticing striking similarities between their transitions from corporate careers to entrepreneurship, Maurice knew he had to invite her on the show to share her story. Sally, who had experienced burnout from her high-profile roles, found herself at a crossroads—until one day, everything changed.


While riding a metro train in France, Sally listened to Maurice’s guest appearance on The Mindful Fire Podcast, where he discussed his Try Life On philosophy (Episode 19 of The Try Life On Podcast). Inspired by his words, she stepped off that train with a renewed sense of purpose, going immediately to a cafe to focus on the interview.


After listening through the interview, and via inspired action, she made the bold decision to leave her corporate life behind and pursue what truly called to her. Sally’s story is a powerful reminder of the ripple effect one person’s philosophy can have on another’s life, perfectly embodying the essence of Try Life On.
