1. What do you see as your primary work at this stage of your life?

I resigned from my job as the head of the Foundation for a professional football club in Spain about 6 weeks ago, and I have just started doing part-time work for a consultancy company in the sustainability, social and environmetal impact space. In this sense, I see my primary work as change agent and bridge builder in the sports, health and education industries, possibly as a regenerative entrepreneur.

2. What role do you see as yours to play?

I think my role would be to help nurture creative ideas, connect people, develop new projects, and build bridges amongst industries.

3. What goals or aims do you have in regard to the above?

I would like to finish this program with a clear idea, and possibly establish and test a new renegerative enterprise.

4. Where do you feel your next arenas for personal growth are?

Taking care of myself. Having more self-compassion. Not being as demanding and trusting the processes more.

5. And for professional growth?

Learning to say no, in order to focus most of my energy, in those ideas and projects that I am more suitable for.

6. What have you invested in to get you where you are?

I have invested in coaching sessions; psychological therapy; MBSR, and CSR, Gross National Happiness and Theory-U training...

7. What fields of learning and which thinkers have been important in your life?

Field: Change Management
Thinkers: Otto Scharmer, Joseph Jaworski, Tho Ha Vinh, Frederic Laloux...

8. Can you frame your philosophy or cosmology of life? What role(s) do humans play in it?

At the heart of existence lies interconnectedness, a vast network of relationships and systems intertwining every aspect of life. From the microscopic to the cosmic, from the individual to the collective, everything is interconnected in a grand tapestry of existence. In this sense, humans are an essential part of this rich and complex web, but not the main and only actors in this orchestra.
