?Este fin de semana vivimos el World Happiness Fest en Perú! ?????? Junto a Latam Coaching Network y World Happiness Foundation estuvimos a cargo de la coordinación y ejecución del evento. Ha sido una jornada llena de aprendizajes y conexiones humanas que nos ha mostrado el trasfondo del concepto de “felicidad” ?. ?Muy agradecida por conocer a personas maravillosas y encontrarme, por primera vez con alumnos/as extranjeros/as en mi país! ?? ?Ahora nos vamos a Chile ???? a continuar con esta fiesta y a seguir compartiendo más vivencias de felicidad!

?? World Happiness Fest: Un encuentro que transformó mi perspectiva sobre la felicidad ?? "Hay experiencias que no solo se viven, sino que te transforman" Para mí, el World Happiness Fest fue una de esas experiencias. Más que un evento, fue una celebración de la alegría, el crecimiento personal y la conexión auténtica con personas de todo el mundo. Les comparto mis reflexiones de este evento tremendamente transformador: ?Encuentro cultural e idiomático. Personas de diferentes países, con historias únicas y una pasión común por su desarrollo personal, se reunieron en un espacio mágico donde la diversidad se convirtió en riqueza. Fue inspirador escuchar diferentes acentos, perspectivas y formas de entender la felicidad. Todos estábamos allí por el mismo propósito: aprender, compartir y construir una vida más alegre y significativa. ?Reencontrarme con compa?eros. Tuve la oportunidad de conocer a decenas de personas que hasta entonces solo conocía en la virtualidad. Verlos en persona, abrazarlos, sentir su energía y ver sus sonrisas en presencialmente, fue un momento inolvidable y sumamente gratificante. Poner en palabras en lo que se siente al romper las barreras digitales es muy difícil, sobre todo cuando descubres esas personas son incluso más maravillosas de lo que imaginabas. ?El poder del grupo. Rodearte de personas inspiradoras, es sumamente importante para lograr tu mejor versión. La energía de los asistentes era simplemente mágica: todos vibrando en una sintonía de autenticidad, alegría y compromiso con su propio bienestar. ? Ponentes muy humanos y auténticos. Durante el evento tuve el gusto de conocer a varios de los ponentes, figuras que no solo brillan por sus conocimientos, sino también por su conexión y autenticidad. Cada uno de ellos compartió desde el corazón, demostrando que la felicidad no es solo un concepto que se estudia, sino una práctica que se vive con coherencia y pasión. En especial, vibre muy en sintonía con Carolina Angarita Barrientos , Wendy Wunder y Ana Romero, todas ellas con un estilo único que te hacen conectar íntimamente con tú propósito,?autenticidad y vulnerabilidad. Sobre la vulnerabilidad y la experiencia con estas expositoras os escribiré en un próximo post por la transcendencia que he tenido. ? La felicidad es un proceso. La felicidad se puede alcanzar, pero el reto de mantenerla se escribe día a día. Se nutre de nuestras elecciones, de nuestras conexiones y de la disposición a abrazar tanto los retos como los momentos de plenitud. Agradezco a ?? José Alejandro Cueto Portocarrero, Karla Llosa y Luis Miguel Gallardo por traer el World Happiness Fest - bēCREATION a Perú. Evento que nos llenó el corazón de motivación, autenticidad, diversidad cultural, convivencia, conexiones genuinas y sobre todo por crear el espacio para recordarnos la importancia de la felicidad.

How a Simple Pin Sparked an Incredible Connection ????? A few weeks ago, I attended a Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) event at FIU and noticed a professor wearing a United Nations pin. It was such a small symbol, but it really stood out. That simple act inspired me to buy my own SDG pin—and a whole bag to share with others on campus, hoping to spark conversations and encourage small actions. ???? This week, that pin led to something extraordinary. My colleague Anna Pietraszek Ph.D. introduced me to Claudia Romo Edelman who came as a guest speaker in my class. Claudia is the founder of the We Are All Human Foundation and the visionary behind the The Hispanic Star initiative, which empowers the Latino community by celebrating contributions, amplifying voices, and building unity. ??? Before class, I put on my SDG pin and brought extras to share. Little did I know that Claudia designed the SDG pin during her time at the United Nations! ?? Hearing her share her story, her passion for storytelling, and her commitment to building a better world left a lasting impression on all of us. Claudia's inspiring presentation to my social media marketing class reminded us that branding isn’t just about products—it’s about people and purpose. Thank you, Claudia Romo Edelman, for showing us how to use storytelling, creativity, and collaboration to make a difference. Here are three lessons we walked away with: 1?? Small acts lead to big change. Wearing a pin, starting a conversation, or lending a hand—these small acts of good inspire others and create ripples of positivity. ??? 2?? We all have a role to play. Claudia reminded us that change happens when each of us contributes in our own way. Whether through creativity, collaboration, or simply showing up, we all make an impact. ???? 3?? Unity creates power. The work of Hispanic Star proves that when we celebrate who we are and come together for good, we can achieve incredible things. Collaboration is key. ???? This experience reinforced the idea that meaningful change starts with connection. Thank you, Claudia, for inspiring me and my students to dream big, act boldly, and stay committed to social good. You’ve shown us that small actions truly can lead to extraordinary change. ???? What’s your small act of good today? Let’s create ripples together. ??? Thank you William Hardin, PhD, FRICS for visiting our Florida International University - College of Business Social Media Marketing class. #SDGs #SocialGood #HispanicStar #Leadership #WeAreAllHuman ??????

?? Presentación de la Fundación Mundial de la Felicidad (Espa?a) el próximo jueves día 28 en A Coru?a. ????

Polycentric Happiness: Aligning Inner and Outer Worlds for Collective Flourishing In our quest for ultimate happiness, the interdependence of inner and outer conditions often goes unnoticed. Happiness is not an isolated phenomenon; it is polycentric, radiating from the self to the community and beyond. To achieve sustainable happiness, we must cultivate a harmonious interplay between personal well-being, social cohesion, and planetary health. This vision aligns closely with Happytalism, a paradigm for global happiness and well-being, as well as the groundbreaking ideas of David Sloan Wilson, Elinor Ostrom, and the Prosocial framework. The Foundations of Polycentric Happiness Polycentric happiness recognizes that individual, communal, and systemic well-being are interconnected and mutually reinforcing. At its core, this concept emphasizes three pillars: Inner Happiness: Emotional well-being, self-awareness, and personal growth are foundational to creating a thriving individual. Community Happiness: Healthy social interactions, equitable systems, and shared goals foster harmony within groups. Global Happiness: Sustainable ecosystems, collective action, and interconnected governance ensure the flourishing of humanity and the planet. This triadic framework mirrors the principles of Happytalism, which advocates for policies and practices that transcend individual success to prioritize collective well-being. Happytalism: A New Economic Paradigm Happytalism challenges the conventional metrics of progress, such as GDP, by focusing on happiness, well-being, and sustainability. It embraces the idea that a truly thriving society requires not only economic growth but also a flourishing of human potential, equitable systems, and ecological balance. Self: Happytalism encourages individuals to prioritize inner well-being through mindfulness, self-compassion, and emotional resilience. Community: It fosters inclusive systems that address inequalities, promote shared values, and build bridges across divides. Planet: At a systemic level, Happytalism advocates for regenerative practices that honor nature and future generations. This paradigm resonates deeply with the Prosocial framework, which applies principles of cooperation and shared purpose to real-world challenges.
