In this episode, I dive into the exciting and rapidly changing world of AI, exploring how it's transforming the future of my startup, my lumii, and the broader tech landscape. I reflect on the journey of evolving my lumii into an AI-driven platform that turns emotions into stories, and how intuition guides me through this unpredictable path. With a move to San Francisco on the horizon, I'm embracing the uncertainties of startup life and the powerful, transformative potential of AI.

“The environment you choose to live in defines what will be enabled or disabled in you. It is the average of a subset of the collective, each with its focus point and experiment. Some souls are born in the right environment for their learning; some souls are born in the wrong environment, and it is their responsibility to become aware of this learning. Seek out the environment that vibrates with your soul's core. Don’t settle for less, but also don’t judge any environment for what it is. Each environment exists for a reason—neither good nor bad—they just are, fulfilling their existence by enabling or disabling certain parts within us.” - G. M.

In today’s episode:
* I share my excitement about traveling to Helsinki for nine days, where I plan to collaborate closely with my co-founder and enjoy time with friends. This visit to Finland, a place I hold dear, promises a mix of work and leisure, allowing me to recharge and gain new perspectives.
* I reflect on a profound encounter I had with my mother after a psycho-trauma workshop. This experience opened up deep discussions about intergenerational trauma, revealing the emotional legacies that are often carried unwittingly from one generation to the next. By examining these patterns, I've begun understanding how they shape our lives and the importance of addressing them to foster healing.
* I explore the emotional dialogue and reconciliation process with my mother, discussing how honoring her and acknowledging the sacrifices made by previous generations can lead to healing and understanding. This process has been instrumental in transforming our relationship and offers a pathway to mend past grievances while deepening our familial bonds.

This week has unfolded like an intense rollercoaster, showcasing the two conflicting sides within me::
* The fearless and fierce 'let’s go' persona, brimming with sheer belief and faith.
* And the doubter, the self-critic, the seeker of external validation.
It’s a powerful and beautiful dynamic, and the more you become aware of it, the deeper the learnings and insights you can gain.
For these moments, it is such a blessing to have, what I call ‘a safe space to be delusional’: a journal.
* Are you journaling?
* What does journaling mean to you?
Let me know :)
