Kav Tanna: Raised to Be Safe, Wired to Take Risks | Tell Beyond 🎤

On Tell Beyond, presenter Heloise Finch speaks with Kav Tanna, founder of Discount Fabrics, about the tension between security and ambition — and what happens when those forces collide. Kav grew up in a British Asian family shaped by stories of displacement, survival and starting again. His parents arrived in the UK after being forced to leave East Africa, carrying a deep belief in safety, stability and hard work. That history shaped how Kav understands money and responsibility — but it also created a quiet inner conflict. While he was raised to avoid risk, he has always felt drawn to it. After qualifying as an accountant and building a successful corporate career, Kav chose to step away. Not out of rebellion, but out of restlessness. What followed was the challenge of building a business alongside a father who had earned security the hard way, while learning to trust his own appetite for risk, decision-making and independence. This is a conversation about inheritance that goes beyond money. About how survival instincts are passed down through generations. About the unspoken emotional weight inside family businesses. And about why choosing uncertainty can feel both freeing and frightening when you know what your parents endured to create safety. In this episode, we explore: Growing up British Asian with survival woven into everyday thinking Why security and entrepreneurship often pull in opposite directions The hidden emotional dynamics of working in and alongside a family business Money as protection, pressure and possibility Learning when inherited rules still serve you — and when they quietly hold you back This episode is for you if: You’ve ever felt grateful and restless at the same time You were raised to value stability but feel drawn to risk, change or ownership You’re navigating family expectations, cultural inheritance or generational pressure You’re trying to honour where you come from while choosing what comes next 🎧 Catch the full episode on YouTube, Spotify, Apple, or Amazon, just search “Tell Beyond Podcast.” Listen & Connect: 🎧 Full episode: https://www.sell-beyond.com/tell-beyond 🎙️ More episodes of Tell Beyond:    • Tell Beyond Podcast with Heloise Finch - F...   🔖 Hashtags: #TellBeyond #CareerChange #SecondActs #YouthWork #LifeStories #RealConversations #FindingYourWay #PurposeDriven If you're new to the show, welcome.
