In this episode, I invite Valentina Wignell, a Swedish development professional whose life has been shaped by bold choices, unexpected turns, and a love story that crosses continents.
From working with multilateral organizations and governments to living across Europe, Asia, and Latin America, Valentina has spent her life moving through the world with curiosity and courage.
She speaks six languages, has explored more than 70 countries, and has made intentional leaps, professionally and personally, since she was young.
One of her most memorable leaps happened in China, where a wrong turn on a bike ride led her to the man who would become her husband.
Today, she calls Mexico City home, a place she moved to for love. Together, they have faced cultural shifts, long-distance hurdles, and countless uncertainties with resilience, proving that there is no obstacle too big when there is commitment and love.
This episode is a celebration of adventure, vulnerability, and reinvention.
Listen as Valentina shares how she has embraced change, navigated international career paths, and built a life rooted in both purpose and love.
