Dreamers & Doers

Santina is an Instagram influencer and has been a real inspiration for me to start using social networks. At a time when many people try to build a following on social media, we'll talk about what it's like to be an Instagram influencer. The good point sand the struggles that people may not always see.

In Today's society, we feel like we have to show we are successful and share our awesome lives on social media. It sometimes comes to the expense of our mental health and people tend to be more depressive or anxious than ever. 5 years ago, Grant Trebilco launched a movement called OneWave that is now is several cities in Australia. The concept is to gather in the morning once a week and exchange about our struggles in a beautiful, loving and non-judgemental environment, and then go for a surf. I've recently opened up more about my emotions and struggles and it can feel like a liberation. It's a super interesting subject. Here are a few questions I'll ask but come with yours: 1. How and why did you start the OneWave movement? 2. Why do you think we suffer that much from anxiety and depression in Today's society? 3. What can we do about it?

I met Kirsty a few months ago. She helped me to stop overthinking decisions and use my inner ability to trust my intuition to become more creative, through coaching sessions and workshops. These were cool activities, sometimes trying to reconnect with the child within. I'm really honoured to have her on Dreamers & doers - Live Interviews. Here are a few topics we talked about: 1. How did you get interested in intuition and creativity? Have you always been into these topics? 2. If not, did you have any breakthrough experiences that put you on this path? 3. Do you think we repress our creativity and intuition? 4. Why should we use more our intuition? 5. What can we do to improve our use of intuition and creativity? Then the next part was the Q & A session.

I interviewed Karen P'ng, digital nomad who quitted her job 2 years ago and became a freelance social media consultant. She is now working mainly from Sydney and sometimes from Asia. Here are the questions I have prepared for the first 15 min. We spoke about the pros and cons as I know some people who hesitate to take the leap, with no bullsh*t! 1. When did you decide to quit your job and do your thing? why? 2. What do you love about being a digital nomad? 3. Did you have moments of doubts, struggle? 4. When do you think is the right time? Then we did a 10-min Q&A and asked her anything.

I interviewed Gaspard Koenig, famous French libertarian philosopher, author of many books and founder of the think tank Generation Libre. Gaspard and his think tank now have a big influence on French politics. In this podcast, we discuss some of the self-organised societies he has been visiting and studying, from open prisons to micro credit, from blockchain to universal basic income. We also discuss the rise of decentralised networks. I have been following Gaspard for more than 4 years and love his work. He is quite famous in France, often invited on radio and TV shows, and thought it would be great to interview him in English in order to have his ideas heard by a wider population.
