• 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!

  • 16. Soltando carga con Adrian Liguerre
    Nov 23 2025

    Hoy nos acompaña Adrián Ligüerre.

    Para Adrián el cambio ha sido parte de su vida, desde los 10 años cuando sus padres se mudaron a Austria hasta trasladarse a Berlín y vivir entre España y Alemania.

    Pero lo que llama la atención de Adrián no son sus cambios geográficos, sino su disposición a aprender haciendo, su entendimiento del error y ensayo, su capacidad de empatía, reflexión y perdón.

    Porque errar es de humanos, cómo también lo es aprender, crecer, y entender que parte del proceso es ser gentiles y darnos espacio para cometer errores y seguir adelante.

    Músico, emprendedor, amigo, hijo, padre… siempre Adrián.


    Durante nuestra conversación hablamos de:

    1. Sobrellevar las pérdidas: relaciones que terminan, amigos que se van, seres queridos que nos dejan…. O momentos que desearíamos borrar por varios motivos, pero, dados la oportunidad, ¿de verdad lo borraríamos? Aquí te dejo el link del libro que comentamos: El algoritmo de la felicidad de Mo Gawdat (https://amzn.eu/d/fiERwhA )

    2. Buscar ayuda: recientemente se ha celebrado el día internacional del hombre, 19 de noviembre, donde uno de los objetivos es advocar por la salud mental y la necesidad de este colectivo de hablar y expresarse más abiertamente. Adri habla de su experiencia trabajando en terapia y lo mucho que le ha ayudado a sentirse mejor, tener relaciones más sanas y conocerse, y aceptarse, a si mismo.

    3. Perdonar es de sabios: ¿alguna vez has notado el peso que llevas cuando te enfadas con alguien? Lo incomodo que resulta y lo mal que te sientes. Perdonar no significa olvidar, ni poner la otra mejilla sino liberarse de la carga emocional que se lleva uno mismo.

    4. Comunicación efectiva: como decía mi padre, “más vale una vez colorao que ciento amarillo”. Muchas veces nos callamos por miedo a lastimar a la otra persona, ¡o por varios motivos!, y embotellamos ese resquemor hasta que la botella esta al limite, y explota. Hablamos de la importancia de comunicar nuestros sentimientos de manera clara y constructiva, desde el cariño y el respeto, para mantener relaciones saludables.

    5. Familia y trabajo: Adrián explicó que el cambio más importante en su futuro es pasar más tiempo físicamente con su hija, ya que su nuevo trabajo le permite trabajar desde cualquier lugar. Un patrón diferente al que el vivió en su infancia, pero un cambio que para él y su familia es necesario.

    6. Emprender no es fácil: tras años de éxito empresarial, Adrián cambio el mundo de la tecnología y la música por un trabajo más flexible. Una reflexión y decisión que se hizo mas sencilla: compatible con su estilo de vida y que se alinea con sus valores y necesidades personales.


    ¡Gracias por pasarte por Con C de Cambio Adri!

  • 15. Modern parenting with Dr. Mish Seabrook
    Nov 16 2025

    Today we are joined by Dr Mish Seabrook.

    Mish is a highly experienced psychotherapist, coach and trainer who specialises in helping parents navigate the challenges of raising children while safeguarding their own wellbeing. With over 25 years’ experience across the helping professions, Mish offers practical, evidence-based strategies that empower parents to feel more confident, connected and in control.


    Beyond her therapeutic work, Mish is a skilled and engaging presenter and trainer, known for her ability to translate complex psychology into relatable, actionable steps. She has delivered workshops, keynote talks, and training sessions to parents, educators, and mental health professionals, blending her expertise with warmth, humour, and storytelling that leaves audiences feeling informed, inspired, and empowered.


    Dr Mish Seabrook offers clarity, compassion, and the tools you need to parent with purpose—while caring for yourself too.


    During our conversation we spoke about:

    1. Practice makes progress: from changing your breakfast routine to moving countries, it all starts with a small step or thought. Change is inevitable and can lead to growth, even though we often resist it due to a preference for routines.


    2. Future self: ever found that you are judging yourself based on the actions of a moment? A tough one, one where you didn’t have many answers, or a tricky one with little room to act? Dr. Mish gives a shifting perspective: viewing individuals as their potential future selves rather than their current selves. Who would that person be? Wiser? More patient? Kinder? More fun? .. and what would they do? how would they behave?


    3. Cultural differences: we are fast approaching Christmas, and some of you (like me) have moved countries and now observe different ones. In my case, this was Santa vs Three Wise Men. A tradition I adored that my children did not get to experience, and I pressured and punished myself for not giving it to them… until I realised they were different people, so they would get to create their own Christmas memories.


    4. Modern parenting: much has changed (expectations, working patterns, environments…), and yet, not much has changed at all – parenting and raising children still requires the core functions it always had, except this time our modern world makes some of those more difficult. And we blame ourselves for not being able to do it all. Parenting is a unique and ever-changing experience, requiring constant learning and flexibility.


    Thanks Dr. Mish for being with us and sharing so many beautiful insights!

  • 14. Date una oportunidad con Ana Guisasola
    Nov 9 2025

    Hoy nos acompaña Ana Guisasola.

    Ana es una apasionada defensora de los derechos humanos y la acción humanitaria con una formación legal que respalda los marcos de protección internacional en todo el mundo.

    Su trayectoria ha estado impulsada por un compromiso con la promoción de la paz, la dignidad humana y la justicia social.

    Dedicada a fortalecer las prácticas de protección internacional y a desarrollar el liderazgo en operaciones globales para una cooperación global efectiva y soluciones humanitarias colaborativas, fomentando el empoderamiento a través de asociaciones sostenibles y respetuosas.

    Ana además es una ciudadana del mundo, española, viviendo con su familia en Berlín, no sin antes haber recorrido mundo mochila al hombro!

    Durante nuestra conversación Ana describió tres cambios significativos en su vida: cambiar de carrera de derecho a trabajo en derechos humanos y ayuda humanitaria, mudarse de España a Alemania, y tener hijos. Momentos que marcaron su vida, su carrera y quién es como persona.

    1. Coger la maleta: de España a Alemania, Ana nos comparte su historia y como fue la decisión de dejar Madrid para vivir en Berlín. Un cambio geográfico que impactó su carrera y familia. Una perspectiva de apertura y flexibilidad que les prepara para el presente y el futuro.

    2. Hazlo con miedo, pero hazlo: durante toda su trayectoria Ana ha tomado decisiones de las que estaba seguro y otras… no tanto. Hablamos de la importancia de dar el paso, gestionar expectativas e ir paso a paso.

    3. ¡Qué viva el aburrimiento!: creatividad y crecimiento te esperan al otro lado del aburrimiento. Una fuerza motivadora para buscar nuevas experiencias.

    4. Hilo dorado: esa constante que está presente a lo largo de nuestras vidas, aunque no nos demos cuenta. Identificar ese factor común puede ayudarte a sentirte mejor, con más confianza y centrado. En el caso de Ana, esto fue darse cuenta de la constante de ayuda y diversidad que hoy informa su carrera en trabajo humanitario.

    5. Ricitos de oro: oímos que el estrés no es bueno, ¡y no lo es en demasía!, pero tampoco lo es no tenerlo en absoluto. Necesitamos esa dosis mínima de cortisol para ponernos en marcha, para motivar la acción sin llegar al agotamiento.

    6. ¿Error?: tomar “la decisión equivocada” es a veces la decisión acertada – o como dicen, no recibes lo que quieres sino lo que necesitas. Para Ana esto fue sacar plaza para estudiar Derecho, cuando ella quería Arquitectura. Pero tras darle una oportunidad, y explorar varias ramas profesionales, encontró su pasión y vocación en el Derecho Humanitario, una carrera que se alinea con su personalidad y valores.

    ¡Gracias por venirte a Con C de Cambio Ana!

  • 13. It's in your hands with Brian McGhee
    Nov 2 2025

    This week we are joined by Brian McGhee.

    Brian is a force of nature, one of those people you meet and you cannot help but be drawn to his magnetic, kind, energy.

    As a successful professional, he has built a career in Entertainment, managing teams for companies like iHeart Media, Townsquare Media and Urban One. But his magic does not reside in his revenue achievements, his magic is people development. He shows up as a leader, mentor and guide. In his words: “Nothing is more satisfying that watching people succeed and knowing that you had a hand in it. My passion lies in recruiting, coaching, training, developing, and guiding sales teams—then watching with pride as they shine. I work to galvanize a team and change the culture through a very positive, inclusive leadership style that tends to bring out the best in people.”

    Brian and I met at a Simon Sinek training course, and our encounter was nothing short of mind-blowing (and we tell you about it in our conversation!). We knew then we were going to be more than people who happen to meet on a random zoom call, we were going to be friends.

    In our conversation we talk about

    1. Uprooting: Brian and his family have moved frequently due to work opportunities. Each move presented an opportunity for growth, not only professionally, but personally. From discovering new cities, to new friendships… and the advantages that a digital world present when keeping in touch with old ones too!

    2. I’ve got a hand in this: change can be chosen or forced upon you, whatever the case, Brian shared how working on a growth mindset helped him get around it. His perspective? - “I’ve got a hand in this”.

    3. Fostering love: Brian and his wife have been foster parents for a while, later adopting the children they foster to create a home filled with love, kindness and emphasizing the importance of showing up and setting an example for their children.

    4. Work in progress: when we look at life as a journey, with twists and turns, curve balls and deviations, opportunity presents itself. Improvement is a continuous process, and each stage of our life will require something different of us.

    5. Twins: sometimes in life connections form because they truly were meant to. This was our case. We met at a Simon Sinek training and we discovered that not only our professional backgrounds were similar, but we also were born on the same day! Serendipity at its finest.

    6. You are going to change, and that’s ok: your goals and desires will change. You cannot expect to be the same person you were at 18, you will outgrow your goals and aspirations, and not only that is ok, it’s needed.

  • 12. Diseñando tu futuro con Lele Saa
    Oct 26 2025

    Hoy nos acompaña Lele Saa.

    Directora de arte, ilustradora, experta en el mundo del branding… con mas de 20 años de experiencia, Lele ha ilustrado revistas infantiles, trabajado en museos y empresas como Apple, Meta, McDonald’s o PlayStation.

    Lele ahora vive en Cambridge, Inglaterra, donde recientemente ha completado un Master en Ilustración de Libros Infantiles – ARU Cambridge School of Art.

    En nuestra conversación Lele y yo charlamos sobre el choque cultural que significa vivir en otro país, la dificultad de encontrar tu propia voz (sobre todo en el mundo del arte y la publicidad) y lo que realmente significa vivir de acuerdo a uno mismo, nuestros valores y lo que realmente importa.

    Hablamos de:

    1. Irse no es tan fácil: desde el clima a las costumbres, vivir en otro país es un Master en adaptación y flexibilidad. Con sus altos y bajos, Lele y yo charlamos sobre lo que significa vivir en Inglaterra y los choques de culturas.

    2. Identidad y títulos: Lele pasó de ser directora creativa para cuentas / marcas como Apple, McDonald’s, Meta… a emprender su camino en el mundo de la ilustración como freelancer. Reflexionamos sobre lo que pasa cuando uno deja atrás las etiquetas del mundo corporativo y se enfrenta a encontrar su propia voz.

    3. Creatividad y espacio personal: escapar de tus ideas no es fácil, pero es necesario. Lele reflexiona sobre el impacto y la necesidad de encontrar su espacio para relajarse y desconectar, y como influye en su creatividad y bienestar. Hablamos por ejemplo del método Pomodoro, priorizar cosas que nos nutran el alma y qué factores realmente influyen en nuestros niveles de felicidad y satisfacción.

    4. Tenacidad y perspectiva: los cambios a veces nos vienen dados, otras veces los buscamos. Pero la única seguridad es que nos vienen. Afrontarlos con una pizca de perspectiva y tenacidad es clave para salir airoso.

    ¡Gracias por venirte a Con C de Cambio Lele!
