  • Managing climate anxiety by imagining preferable future
    Nov 29 2022

    Do you also get anxious about thinking about the future because of climate change?

    Stefano Bellucci Sessa does.
    He'll share in the future how mindfulness and therapy are helping. 

    Meanwhile, I announce There&Wow, a personal newsletter on how I manage to imagine a preferable future in times of ecological and climate emergency.

  • Being bad at mindfulness and design
    Apr 26 2022

    After a long Covid break, I'm back for the last episode of season 1.

    In confidence, even after a season of a podcast, I think I'm a bad podcaster.
    In confidence, even after 10 years of experience in design and innovation, I think I'm a bad innovator.
    In confidence, even after a mindfulness course, I think I'm not aware and in control of my emotions and thoughts. 


    In confidence, I will share how I keep going, despite feeling I should quit and give up. 

    Listen if you struggle to deal with failure and mistakes, you keep quitting, and without managing to keep the life or career change.

  • Is UX Design really for you?
    Mar 18 2022

    I asked this question many times to myself.
    And I've been asked by many people I mentor. 

    I met people unsure whether starting a UX course is a good choice.
    I met career changers who struggle to define themselves as UX designers.
    I met people unsatisfied with their UX job, because it doesn't live up to the expectations.
    And I was one of them too.

    In this episode, I'll share my learnings on what limited and confused perception of the UX industry I had, and how I managed to navigate the human-centred-design industry beyond that.
    Listen to this episode if you want to understand what skills a UX designer MUST have, and what other similar careers exist: service design, organisational design, business design and more.

    So that you can make a mindful design decision on whether User Experience Design is the right career solution for you.
