As 2023 draws to a close, I find myself reflecting on a year as challenging as it has been rewarding.
The launch of my first book, “Deja Huella”* (co-authored with Vanessa), has been a cornerstone event. Writing a book is a transformative experience, one that extends far beyond the act of publishing. In my personal journey, authoring DH has been a gateway to numerous enriching experiences and achievements.
➡ Firstly, it opened doors to collaborations with some truly remarkable individuals and organizations (hashtag#BarcelonaActiva, hashtag#BizBarcelona, hashtag#Lidera, hashtag#Speakhers, hashtag#Visionarias, hashtag#Womenalia), significantly expanding my professional network and broadening my perspective.
➡ Writing a book is instantly establishing an individual as an expert, and in our case, that led to invitations for interviews in various mediums, including the TVE (Spain’s National Television).
➡ Moreover, it has led to my return to tutoring, a fulfilling way to share the knowledge and experiences I’ve accumulated, especially those gained through the process of writing and publishing.
➡ Last but certainly not least, my work in editorial design and art direction, showcased through DH, has been recognized internationally by various design organizations. It has also marked the beginning of a series of accolades for other design projects I’ve been involved in, a testament to the hard work and creativity invested.
To cap off this whirlwind year, I’m thrilled to announce that I’ve been invited to join the jury team at the Online Design Awards.—a role I am eagerly looking forward to as we usher in the new year.
Here’s to a year of challenges turned into opportunities, and to the many more to come!
