  • What Real Empowerment Actually Takes | Nezha Alaoui | Unboxed Talks
    May 13 2026

    Empowerment is easy to talk about. Building it is something else entirely.

    In this episode of Unboxed Talks, Carl Boustany sits down with Nezha Alaoui, entrepreneur, author, global advocate, and founder of Women Choice, to explore what real empowerment actually looks like beyond the language, headlines, and public positioning.

    This conversation goes deeper than the usual surface-level narrative. It looks at leadership, access, influence, women’s advancement, and the structural realities behind creating meaningful change. Nezha shares her perspective on building impact across regions, why visibility does not always translate into power, and what it takes to move from intention to execution.

    From entrepreneurship and leadership to economic opportunity and long-term responsibility, this episode is about the real work behind building something that matters.

    If you care about business, leadership, social impact, or the future of women’s empowerment in the region and beyond, this is a conversation worth listening to.

  • What Happens When AI Starts Replacing Legal Work? | Rami Alame | Unboxed Talks
    May 6 2026

    Most people still think of AI as a tool.
    But in some industries, it is already becoming much more than that.

    In this episode of Unboxed Talks, Carl Boustany sits down with Rami Alame, Co-founder of Lexyom, for a sharp conversation on legal AI, entrepreneurship, and what happens when traditional industries are forced to confront real technological change.

    Rami shares what pushed him away from conventional career thinking, how the AI wave shifted his perspective early on, and why he is building toward a future where legal tasks can be rethought from the ground up.

    This episode explores founder mindset, speed, structure, belief shifts, and the bigger question behind all of it: what happens when AI stops assisting professionals and starts replacing parts of the work itself?

    If you are building in tech, watching the future of work closely, or trying to understand where AI is actually heading, this conversation is worth your time.
