THIS WEEK'S TOPIC: 

Meet Fernanda Alexia Albunas, a trail-blazer in the world of global communications. She's gone from a fresh graduate from Brazil to a linchpin at SAP's Global Communications Department in the United States. Fernanda's journey isn't your typical career arc - it's a gripping story of turning financial insecurity into a springboard for pursuing high-profile projects, internships, and an MBA. Her story is a rallying cry to all who face adversity, proving how challenges can fuel creativity and personal growth.

This episode takes us on a deep exploration of self-awareness and its impact on career trajectories. We discuss how writing can be a transformative tool to enhance self-awareness, and how tools like a Manifasty board can aid in realizing our goals. Fernanda's experiences in the sports and entertainment industry shed light on the power of volunteering in self-awareness and career exploration. We also delve into the crucial role of networking in fostering trust, respect, and job opportunities, and the importance of bridging the gender gap.

We're not stopping there. We bring into focus the influence of Gen Z on the future of marketing and discuss the art of navigating the complexities of social media amplification. Fernanda shares her insights on introducing new approaches in established organizations. And the cherry on top? We're exploring ways to overcome impostor syndrome through self-assessment and gratitude for our achievements. It's a goldmine of insights for anyone looking to foster creativity, innovation, and confidence in their career journey. So, buckle up and get ready for an enlightening ride!
