Sassan explores Crossroads - how these can keep us stuck and powerless, but also create opportunities for personal transformation.

At CreativeMornings Lausanne, Sassan explores Crossroads - how these can keep us stuck and powerless, but also create opportunities for personal transformation. Drawing from his own life experiences—from grappling with inaction and self-doubt to unlocking emotional growth through therapy—he offers a raw and funny perspective on how to move through inertia. With an emphasis on mental health, he also addresses the need for healthier models of masculinity in a world increasingly at odds with male vulnerability.
