Welcome to Meant for More: Elevated Business & Life with Kristina Gazi.

This is the podcast for anyone ready to elevate how they live, work, and grow. We explore the deeper layers of relationships, career, business, wealth, and wellness — through real stories, research-based insights, and practical guidance you can apply in your own journey.

In this episode, Kristina sits down with Ken Ku — investor, options trader, and entrepreneur — to unpack his real-life Undercover Billionaire Challenge, where he intentionally put himself in a position to start over from zero in a new country and rebuild a business from scratch.

Inspired by concepts popularised in Undercover Billionaire and business principles often shared by Grant Cardone, Ken shares what actually happens when there is no safety net, no audience, no capital advantage — only mindset, skills, and execution.

Through failures, pivots, and uncomfortable growth, this conversation dives into what it really takes to build a business today — especially when visibility, branding, and resilience matter more than ever.

Whether you’re starting a business, rebuilding after a setback, or questioning your next move, this episode offers raw insights and practical lessons you can apply immediately.
