Tony Feghali is joined by Valerie Zakka, industrial expert, consultant, and EQ assessor, for a conversation that moves between business, human behavior, and the realities of growth.

Valerie shares how she built her career in a highly technical, male-dominated industry while staying grounded in something many overlook: emotional intelligence. From managing complex projects and global partnerships to navigating trust, setbacks, and expansion into new markets, she offers a perspective shaped by both experience and instinct.


They explore what it means to build relationships in business, how to balance speed with judgment, and why trust can be both your greatest strength and your biggest risk. Valérie also opens up about moments that tested her approach and why she chose not to let them change the way she operates.


This is a conversation about ambition, discipline, and learning how to move forward without losing yourself in the process.
