Some of the new projects include: a new shoe deal, documentary coming up about one of the most important music artists from the USA (the name cannot be disclosed yet), scripts for big platforms like Netflix and Hulu and many more.

Alex has international studies. First of all, due to his father's line of work, it was safer for Alex to go abroad at the time and so he was sent to a boarding school in Austria.

Yulia is an ambitious person, who is determined to make changes, no matter how small or big they are.

She is an advocate for human rights, she is recognized as an Outstanding Speaker by the UN Refugee Agency and she has been always involved in various local and international projects.

While studying and working in Moldova, she found out about Chevening awards and applied to pursue a MA in Communication, Media Practice and Public Relations at Swansea University in the United Kingdom, where she researched the brand strategies of Apple, Microsoft, and Boston Dynamics.

In this interview, Yulia told us more about the process of applying, her experience in Wales, a comparison to living in Moldova, and her favorite food and traditions in both places.

She was also very open about depression and how she changed her mindset. I love that she has a very insightful way of looking at things. She wants to raise awareness of good things in Moldova. She now works at the National Association of ICT Companies in the Republic of Moldova (ATIC) that stands for the promotion of the ICT sector, which has become bigger and more influential than the wine sector.

I found out about Loredana through The Moldovan Coffee Break – a project produced by the European Network with a series of interviews, in which they put a “spotlight on the country of Moldova and in particular, life for six young people so as to examine what it is like to grow up in the Moldova of 2021“.

Loredana, amongst other important duties, interviewed these people in order to share their stories, but this time she was the one being interviewed.

Find out in this episode about the drive behind Loredana’s wish to improve in her own way Moldova as we know it; her experience studying in the Netherlands and in Italy, her passion for culture, her return to Moldova and broadly speaking a comparison between different mentalities.

We also touched upon a subject that is very interesting for me: recycling and renewable energy.

It is always a pleasure to meet young & ambitious people and Alexandra is one of them. She is also a very insightful person and has opened up about her experiences, with ups and downs, in order to raise awareness and maybe even help people in similar situations.

We have covered a wide range of subjects: from surpassing the mentality that is more prevalent in Moldova of being good at everything (especially in school); coping and getting over a burnout; applying for jobs, scholarships, internships; acknowledging and leaving a work environment that is toxic; to her experience of working in the luxury sector with highlights like an internship at Louboutin where she had an extraordinary mentor; being a Super Ambassador and Mentee at Women @ Dior ’21 and many other impressive achievements.

Alexandra is currently studying for her master degree, she loves reading non fiction books that help her grow her mindset, she loves bringing people together, she thrives in multinational environments and enjoys speaking in multiple languages.

Pe Lucia am cunoscut-o întâi prin artă, iar pentru ea arta este cea mai scurtă cale de a ajunge la sufletul omului. Ei uite că Lucia a ajuns la sufletul meu nu doar prin ceea ce creează, dar și pentru felul ei de a fi, ca să nu mai zic că am avut onoarea să fiu și pictată de ea.

Lucia a făcut studiile în filologie și interior design în Moldova. În Marea Britanie a făcut Foundation Diploma, Hampstead School of Art, Graduate Diploma Fine Art, Chelsea College of Arts înainte de a studia la MA Fine Art, Chelsea College of Arts, UAL.

Îi place să experimenteze cu culori, texturi, materiale.

Explorează tema migrației, una dintre ultimele ei lucrari este clopotul sunetul ADN-ului cu fața lui Decebal.

Aflați din podcast despre greutățile, dar și bucuriile de până acum; adaptarea în Marea Britanie; despre pictură, sculptură; artă în general plus planul pentru o expoziție inedită de care nu vă spun mai multe. Ascultați cu plăcere.

Pe Lucia o puteți găsi pe website https://www.luciaboaghe.co.uk/contact, instagram @lucia.boaghe

Hi everyone, thank you so much for your ongoing support. 

I am happy to announce that my podcast was mentioned in this Top 20 - https://beststartup.co.uk/20-best-uk-funny-podcasts-of-2021/

I am also taking a short break as my attention is needed for a project that I will tell you about later. 

Meanwhile, please discover the archives with older interviews. 

Suggestion of a few funny episodes: Vlad Ilich, Mo Omar, Cath Rocha-Davies, Peter Tindal and Olia Hercules (one of my fav episodes in any category).

Enjoy x

Vlad știa demult că nu vrea un job tipic, așa că a început să înființeze organizații non-profit de la 16 ani. La 19 ani a co-fondat un startup împreună cu Xenia și Nicu: Planable, care acum este utilizat de clienți ca Mini, BMW, Volkswagen, SkyTeam, United Nations, Christian Louboutin etc.

Însă drumul lor a fost cu suișuri și coborâșuri desigur, așa că în acest episod veți afla mai multe despre ce este Planable, cum l-a schimbat pe Vlad experiența de la Sillicon Valley, cum a fost experiența de la Londra, importanța de a avea co-fondatori, cum e să lucrezi la Planable, ce înseamnă pentru Vlad să fie mentor și cum își eficientizează ziua.

De asemenea, Vlad a vorbit despre importanța educației financiare și despre 5 pași către F.I.R.E (Financial Independence Retire Early). Vlad plănuiește să se pensioneze la 35 ani, ceea ce nu înseamnă că nu mai vrea să lucreze după 35, dar explică planul de a ajunge financiar viabil ca să poți să te pensionezi când dorești.

Dacă vreți să învățați mai multe despre independeță financiară, urmăriți-l pe Vlad pe minimalistu.eu sau pe instagram @minimalistu.eu

El a scris și o carte Marketing Teams of The Future, pe care o puteți accesa gratis.

Ascultați podcastul marca Planable – People of Marketing aici.

Și apropo, co-fondatorii Planable sunt toți 3 pe lista Forbes 30 Under 30, iar Xenia a fost menționată recent și pe lista de 100 Women Founders In Europe To Follow.
