Most people think professionalism is about fitting in, but what if it’s actually the reason we feel disconnected from ourselves? This podcast explores the tension between who we are and who we feel pressured to be at work, in relationships, and in everyday life.

Through candid conversations, we unpack how different environments shape our behavior, how limiting beliefs form, and what it looks like to actually understand yourself beyond the roles you play.

Ana’s career has always been deliberately diverse and multi-disciplinary (journalist, agency, client VP, media, PR, bilingual). Her goal was to become a senior global marketer with expertise in creating diverse, magnetically forward leaning, unexpected go-to-market efforts for brands that drive sales growth ---from any seat at the table. Her deep consumer/business curiosity, plus the intersectionality of sector experience (luxury, CPG, financial, tech, healthcare, multicultural) has shaped her approach to brand/corporate communications. Ana has a deep reputation for equitably leading collaborative, elastic, and high performing fluid teams (in 22 countries and 17 languages). She thrives in discovering frictionless coherence in complex assignments; clarity and elegance to ambitious missions; and unbiased business imperatives for future proofing growth. Ana’s reputation among CMO/CCO’s: generating “Purposeful Profits” and a “Factivism” rooted in modernizing consumer insights to existing products; products to untapped consumers; and consumers to incremental revenue by coalescing cross functional leaders (internal and industry) to trailblaze.
