In this deeply reflective episode of Humanising Business, Kiani reconnects with Mirza Mahic, a childhood friend whose life journey has spanned war, migration, hardship, brotherhood, entrepreneurship, and profound spiritual growth.

 

From leaving war-torn Bosnia as a child to rebuilding life in Germany and eventually Australia, Mirza shares how navigating different cultures, languages, and identities shaped his emotional intelligence and adaptability. What could have immobilised him became the foundation of his strength.

 

Together, they explore the power of embracing both darkness and light within ourselves, the illusion of “saving” others, and the wisdom that comes from allowing each person to walk their own path.

 

Mirza also shares the evolution of his business, Aluminium Revival, and how passion, mastery of craft, and identifying a gap in the market allowed him and his brother to build a scalable, purpose-driven company rooted in excellence.

 

This conversation moves beyond business into the heart of what it means to be human, to accept our parents, release blame, guide our children without control, and understand that every challenge carries a gift.

This episode is a reminder that hardship can either harden you or awaken you, and the choice is always yours.

 

You’ll learn:


How growing up through war and migration shaped emotional intelligence and adaptability


The difference between being immobilised by hardship and allowing it to transform you


Why you cannot “save” anyone, you can only hold their hand in the dark


The importance of allowing people to walk their own journey


How embracing both your light and shadow creates true self-acceptance


Why contrast and polarity are essential for growth


The power of compassion in parenting, leadership, and relationships

Hello my name in Kiani Mills, and this podcast exists to help you see, find and experience the human side of business.

I am a business owner and entrepreneur, and like many who have travelled this path, I have been through the failures & the triumphs, the gut wrenching lows and the indescribable high’s - all which I consider lessons in the school of life. 

On this show we are going to start conversations to ignite new world ideas into old age business, so that we can thrive in a way that we didn’t even know was possible. If you are a leader, business mind or entrepreneur get ready to think & act differently to reach a new level of success.

So what are we waiting for!?
