This week's ISO: Renat MohamedOn EP. 04 of The Assist, we feature Renat Mohamed, a Structural Design Engineer, McNair Scholar, STEMblazers alum, and outspoken champion for women in STEM. She's designing infrastructure that serves underserved communities and pulling the next generation of women into engineering at the same time. This is what pull as you climb looks like in real life.

This week's ISO: We sit down with a Denver-born student of knowledge whose journey took him from a boarding school in Kenya to the streets of Cairo, and back home to serve the very community he grew up in.Kamal Mahamed shares what it actually costs to hold onto your faith and identity in the west and how his travels abroad built him into the man he is today. While living abroad, there was uncertainty, instability, and moments he didn't see coming. This is a conversation about sacrifice, identity, and what it means to leave everything in search of something real.The Seeker Pathway. Leave Everything to Find Everything.Follow on IG to stay up to date with ISO.You're Not Lost.You're In Search Of.

Most people in STEM are never shown the full playbook. They figure it out alone or they don't figure it out at all.In this episode, we called an ISO against the Founder Anis Benyoucef. He opens up about his own engineering journey and gives key gems from what he learned. Coming from a non-target commuter school to internships at Apple, Zoox, and more, he breaks down the real networking strategies, resume principles, and career moves that actually work.This is accumulated game from the past 6 years consolidated to one hour. There's much more to cover in the future such as technical interviews, getting the offer, and succeeding during your internship/job.If you're in engineering, STEM, or trying to figure out how to break into your industry, this one's for you.It's not you vs you anymore.

We've been told that growth requires isolation. That it's you vs you. ISO is redefining that using the basketball definition of an isolation, which is to try and score against a defender who is going to challenge you, sharpen you, and push you to your limit.ISO is a basketball-inspired, faith-driven development platform and cultural movement built to inspire ambition, elevate overlooked talent, and rebuild community pathways to success. That's why The Assist was created. Every Sunday, ISO Founder Anis Benyoucef calls an ISO against the people in our communities who are making real impact — the ones who've been overlooked, underplatformed, and underestimated — to give real game and share their playbook to success.In ISO, there are 6 development pathways, or 6 archetypes. The Builder, The Seeker, The Healer, The Reformer, The Founder, and The Warrior.This season, we'll be highlighting an exceptional person in each pathway. This is how we start inspiring ambition, elevating overlooked talent, and rebuilding community pathways to success.
