From high hopes to hard truths, Kushal gets real about ambition, burnout, innovation, and how Gen Z is redefining what it means to work with purpose.

We unpack:

• What passion actually looks like in a structured job

• How Lucid balances luxury, tech, and creativity

• Whether Gen Z is here to disrupt or just survive

• What keeps young professionals motivated—or totally drained

With over 580 wins and decades of experience coaching at Penn, Temple, and La Salle, Coach Dunphy is known for his success on the court—but it’s his commitment to character, mentorship, and doing good that defines his true legacy.
