Have a decision worth sharing?

Qarar isn't a podcast about success — it's about the moment of choice. The moment you picked one path and abandoned another, lost something to gain something else, or said no when it would have been easier to say yes. We look for guests who lived that moment honestly and can tell it just as honestly.

We care as much about the personal as the professional: launching a product, shutting down a company, walking away from a funding round, or changing the course of a life. If you've made a decision that bent the direction of your work, your team, or your life — we want to hear it.

What we look for

A specific, pivotal decision — not a full résumé.
Willingness to speak about what didn't work as much as what did.
Real operating experience — not theory from a distance.
Diversity of sectors, company sizes, geographies, and generations.
