When you meet Hafiz Kasman, you don’t feel hustle. You feel a presence.

Hafiz grew up in a lower-middle-class Malay family in Singapore, where stability was prized and risk-taking came second. He started his career as a management consultant — a path few from his background dared to walk. But at 25, he did something bold: he left it all to build Kinobi, an ed-tech platform helping students across Asia navigate their careers.

In just a few years, Hafiz and his team grew Kinobi to reach hundreds of thousands of users across the region and earned a spot on Forbes 30 Under 30 Asia. But what’s more striking than the numbers is Hafiz’s mindset — calm, grounded, and deeply intentional.

In this episode, we explore:
· What it means to succeed as a Malay founder in Singapore’s startup scene
· How to build for purpose, not validation
· The invisible privilege of inner peace

“I don’t mind starting from scratch. My lifestyle was humble from the start — I can go back to that anytime I want.”

🎧 Listen to this episode if you’ve ever wondered how to build without burning out, and still win.
