In this episode of Gents Talk, supported by BULOVA Canada, chefs Romain Avril, Wallace Wong & Gianlucca Ruggieri deliver a raw and necessary conversation about talent, effort, and the uncomfortable truth about why being “good” is rarely enough.This episode explores what happens when you grow up believing that skill, hard work, or quality alone should guarantee success — and the frustration, self-doubt, and burnout that come when it doesn’t. It’s not about giving up on excellence; it’s about understanding the unseen factors that actually move the needle and reclaiming your sense of agency.💬 What we cover:- Why talent and hard work don’t automatically lead to success- The hidden systems that reward visibility over quality- How doing everything “right” can still leave you stuck- What actually separates those who win from those who stay overlookedIf you’ve ever felt confused watching less-skilled people succeed faster, questioned your worth despite giving it everything you have, or wondered why your effort hasn’t paid off — this episode is for you. It’s honest. It’s grounding. And it’s a reminder that success isn’t just about being good — it’s about being strategic.👉 Like, comment, and subscribe for more conversations on mindset, men’s wellness, and modern resilience.🔗 Connect with us:Subscribe ► /@gentstalkpodcast🌐 Website: https://gentspost.com📱 Instagram | TikTok | Facebook: @gentstalkpod🎙️ Credits:Host/Producer: Samir MouraniCreative Director & Executive Producer: Steven BrancoA STAMINA Group Production#mentalhealth #confidence #successmindset #personalgrowth #menswellness #motivation #spokenword #selfbelief
