Dr. Mariana Bozesan is an author, award winning integral investor, serial tech entrepreneur and member of the renowned Club of Rome.
I had a lengthy, philosophical and at times even argumentative conversation with Mariana in her Munich home, in a
room filled to the brim with books and more books as well as big portraits of Mahatma Ghandi and Albert Einstein.
We had the type of conversation I want to have much more on the podcast:
different angles and opinions, friendly discourse, revelations, thought provoking, horizon widening and possibly open ended.
Where we are allowed to agree to disagree while having conversations which are conducted with laughter and respect for one another while also being able to say:
"I would like to challenge you on this point:" - after one has voiced their opinion or made an argument.
After all, we are all the sum of our upbringing, environment, belief systems and many different influences and to stay open minded and keep learning is what makes tolerant and expanding minds.
Mariana for one is in the unique position to have experienced not just wealth and prosperity as well as scarcity to the pint of going to school without food.
She has also lived under the influence of two economics systems: Capitalism and Communism
Growing up in communist Romania has inspired Mariana to work hard and make the most of the free education she was offered there.
Mariana has a passion for empowering others to realize their ambitions relating to creating a positive impact.
She is a big believer in uplifting one another and searching for solutions to deal with the many crisis we are faced with, based on science.
She wants to help point out the many things that are right with this world instead of highlighting all the wrongs in order to promote a sense of purpose and direction.
She shares with us her journey to fulfilling her personal needs to the point where she felt she was able and inspired to help fulfill others needs
as well and talks about the schizophrenia she sees in the system that forces us to choose between profit and non-profit and how she detests the concept of "giving back" to people in questionable ways through foundations that give 5 % of the money made to their cause and invest the rest on Wall Street 💰
