  • 19. December specials - Rocking chair visualisation
    Dec 14 2025

    This month I am bringing you something special! A December special!

    A month that means many things: excitement, nostalgia, joy, sadness, celebrations, gathering, loneliness…

    In these special conversations I want you and I to have a chat. To embrace what comes and to prepare yourself for whatever you need.

    So I will share some short conversations, an invitation for reflection, to carve out some time to connect to yourself and think about what you want to take with you into the new year and the holiday / Christmas celebrations.

    This week we talk about emptying your backpack!

    That invisible load we all carry with us. Limited space in it, so we must decide which things come with us and which ones…well, it’s time to leave behind.

    So find a comfortable spot, cave out some 20 minutes of alone time, grab pen and paper, and let’s go!

    And remember, if this resonates, if the visualization sparks something in you… reach out and let me know!

    Love,

    Lucia

  • 18. Especial Diciembre - La teoría del geriátrico
    Dec 7 2025

    Empezamos el mes de diciembre, cierre de año, se acercan las Navidades…

    Para muchos esta es una época de celebraciones, reuniones, fiesta y eventos sociales… para otros es un momento de reflexión, de extrañar a los que no están… Para mi es ambas, así que en estas semanas os traigo unos episodios distintos: ¡una conversación entre tú y yo! Donde te traigo algunos ejercicios, visualizaciones, meditaciones y reflexiones, para prepararte.

    ¡En el episodio de hoy te traigo la Teoría del Geriátrico! Una visualización para ayudarte a entender qué es lo que quieres crear en el año nuevo, qué cosas te llevas y qué experiencias quieres vivir.

    Así que coge papel y lápiz, siéntate en algún sitio cómodo y tranquilo, y disfruta!

    Nos vemos la semana que viene!

She’s a podcaster, coach and recently has launched her own YouTube channel too! - https://www.youtube.com/@DoriDunaiBehind the professional success? A woman that shows resilience, creativity and kindness. Welcome to C is for change Dori!During our conversation we spoke about:1. Squiggly careers: Dori’s journey began in the sports world, but due to an injury she had to re-think and make a u-turn, that ultimately led her into creative industries, working at Disney, Amazon, Viasat… and founding her own business, Miracle Magnet Studios, creating her own YouTube Channel and podcast!2. Endurance: as a professional runner whose career was halted turned to marathon runner. We talk about the resilience this sport builds and the parallelism with life. 3. Seeking help: As flagged, Dori shared a very difficult part of her journey, as a victim of abuse that led her to mental health decline. Seeking help wasn’t easy and took time, but Dori reflected on how this now helps her see anything that happens in life as solvable, reversible and possible to overcome. 4. Creativity: not just professionally, Dori’s creative journey spans to all areas of her life. From professional pathways to living. Dori always sees the other side, a different perspective, an idea waiting to be turned into reality. 5. Failure and giving it a go: Dori shared how she left her job to start her own company, with no money and no fall back. Putting her flat on Airbnb, trying, failing and trying again. She highlighted the importance of being compassionate and kind to ourselves and understanding that we are giving it our best, and that is what matters. We spoke about James Clear’s book, Atomic Habits, and how that perspective can help in taking the steps needed to get us closer to where we want to be: https://amzn.eu/d/b6LP71O Thanks Dori for being with us.
