About this listen
A conversation on whether meritocracy rewards talent or merely justifies inequality. We question if merit is truly earned or quietly inherited through privilege opportunity and luck. The discussion moves through education governance and ambition asking whether hard work alone can ever outweigh circumstance. We explore the promise of fair reward the myth of perfect competition and the reality that shapes who rises and who remains unseen. Meritocracy can inspire or deceive depending on where one stands and this episode sits inside that tension with honesty curiosity and depth.
