Summary
From the Rooftops of Dibra to the Studios of New York: A Soft Skills Journey Like No Other
Once upon a time in a small town in Dibra, a mischievous young boy had a wild dream…
While others played in the fields, Ermal Turkesi was up on the roof—literally—building a handmade radio from wires and parts no one could name. The town had never seen anything like it. But suddenly, they could hear it: his voice, his signal, his mission. A one-man radio station that connected an entire region.
A curious mind, an untamed spirit, and a heart wired for innovation.
He didn’t ace school, but he aced life.
When opportunity knocked in the ‘90s, Ermal left for America just as the world was waking up to the internet. There, he climbed the corporate ladder—fast. From launching brands to leading design at global companies, from e-commerce to podcasts, he was at the top of his game.
But success has a funny way of making you pause.
With all the luxury the world could offer, something was missing: peace, clarity, the inner voice.
So he returned—to Albania. To himself.
He stepped away from the noise to reconnect with what truly matters: self-awareness, emotional intelligence, purpose.
Today, Ermal lives a nomadic lifestyle, building products with heart and guiding others to find their own voice—not just in tech, but in life.
And now, he's sharing his journey with YOU.
