Cohort Assignment | Europe Summer-Fall 2023, Cohort 2 |
1. What do you see as your primary work at this stage of your life? | I'm not sure that I am really understing this question. If we talk about work in a professional way, my primary work at this stage of my life is managing and executing projects, with a business development part. If we are talking on a more personal level, my main work at this stage of my life is to figure out how to create a work life that resonates with me and at the same time allows me financial and time freedom. My most important work today is to explore and walk towards feeling at peace. |
2. What role do you see as yours to play? | I see my role is to connect, to be a bridge between people, their own nature and their environment. I feel that my role is to lead with kindness, to integrate, to unite, to co-create a better way to inhabit this planet and I also see and educational role for me. |
3. What goals or aims do you have in regard to the above? | My goal for my role is to reach out to as many people and organizations as possible to move forward together, to find the space where I can make a real contribution and have a positive impact. To help bring about a profound transformation, a change of perspective. I want to be in constant contact with nature and humans, get away from the computer and create different spaces to nurture those connections. |
4. Where do you feel your next arenas for personal growth are? | I want to work on my self-demand, in some situations it can be positive, but in others it can be quite the opposite. I put a lot of pressure on myself, sometimes I live more in the future and I want to bring myself to the present, to feel enough, to learn to set and respect my limits, and to manage stress better. |
5. And for professional growth? | In terms of professional growth, I want to find the place where I can contribute the most and generate financial stability for myself to also drive my own projects. I would also like to have the experience and learn in an international organization, establish strong connections between different cultures, nationality and entities. But at the same time, I feel the challenge to find a slower pace in terms of work, a slower life, with less computer and more nature. |
6. What have you invested in to get you where you are? | I have invested my physical presence with my family and friends, leaving my roots to go out and explore. I have invested money and time in studying to be able to contribute more and find a job more aligned to me. I have invested in creating my own project for collective reflection and mutually beneficial collaboration. I have also invested time and money in humanitarian and hands-on education projects to learn more skills to move me towards a more sustainable life. |
7. What fields of learning and which thinkers have been important in your life? | One of the areas of learning that has had the most influence in my life is in terms of energy and subtle energies, reiki and yoga. As well as philosophy, music, poetry, literature and art. For me, nature itself is the richest field of learning, as well as the path of self-discovery and inner development. I have also been very interested in the world of construction, community building and especially in the world of educational experiences. |
8. Can you frame your philosophy or cosmology of life? What role(s) do humans play in it? | What a great and complex question. I believe there is something bigger than us. There is a natural wisdom that responds to energy and vibrational frequency. We are the universe experiencing itself and in this experience, everyone and everything is connected, humanity is one more piece of the whole, and it has a tremendous creative capacity, only that over the years the power of the mind has become more dominant than our true essence. Life constantly seeks to expand and we have to enable the conditions for that to happen.I believe that humans have the need to recognize themselves as nature again, not as isolated entities, to live in harmony with the entire environment. |
