about everything in (my) life
In this podcast I talk with Cristina about a study she conducted in 2018 to try to better understand how emotional intelligence and resilience could act as protective factors for aid workers working in the field, in front of the emotional and psychological risks they are exposed to as part of their job. She focused […]
MoreRoss: “Would you have ever imagined that people would have talked so much about us? About our love story?” Rachel: “About you cheating you mean”. Ross: “I already told you hundreds of times that I am sorry. Watch all 10 seasons again and count them. I mean, people look at us as an example of […]
MoreI have been reading many times in different outlets and on social media accounts in the past weeks about how we should experience boredom more often and how we would be benefiting from it. Personally, I have the tendency to fill my free time with as many activities as possible. I don’t feel I am […]

MoreCan’t believe it’s been 5 days already! Time is passing fast for me. My mood is good. Well, I have to say that in Belgium it has been a lighter lockdown than for instance in Italy, France and Spain, because we are allowed to go out for walks as long as we are not more […]
