Summary

What if the most meaningful relationship of your life wasn’t romantic—but platonic? In this powerful conversation, we dive deep into the evolving landscape of love, partnership, and emotional intimacy with the magnetic Karam Nwilati—better known online as Karam in the World.

Karam is a Syrian-Canadian adventure filmmaker, photographer, and soulful storyteller whose life has been anything but conventional. Born in France, raised in Syria, and now based in Berlin by way of Montreal, Karam has captured the hearts of thousands with his breathtaking visual content and heartfelt narratives shared across platforms like Instagram and TikTok. His work, often a love letter to nature and human connection, explores what it means to truly live and belong.

In this episode, Karam opens up about the transformative journey of choosing a platonic life partner—a decision that challenges societal norms and redefines how we value companionship. Together, we explore themes of emotional safety, chosen family, and the beauty of creating a life built on shared values rather than romantic convention.

Whether you're seeking new ways to experience love, questioning the traditional relationship escalator, or simply yearning for deeper connection, this episode will leave you inspired to reimagine what partnership can look like.
