Sudeep Wahla’s path was anything but conventional.

Raised in Fontana by first-generation immigrant parents, Sudeep assumed college was the next step—until he didn’t get into the schools he expected. Instead of regrouping locally, he made a bold decision at just 17 years old: move to India and enroll directly in veterinary school, bypassing the traditional U.S. undergraduate route entirely.

In this episode, Sudeep shares what it was like to navigate intense academic pressure, culture shock, and isolation—while committing to a path he wasn’t always sure he wanted. We follow his journey from veterinary school to opening and scaling his own practices, and eventually selling them to reclaim time for family, health, and new ventures.

This conversation is about:

• Commitment as a form of freedom
• The hidden value of finishing what you start
• Burnout, entrepreneurship, and redefining success
• Why nonlinear paths often make the strongest foundations

If you’ve ever questioned whether the long road is worth it—or wondered when it’s okay to pivot—this episode is for you.
