Listen "#19 Maria Villablanca - Solving Problems, Family & Standing Up For The Little Guy"
Episode Synopsis
Meet Maria Villablanca, Founder and CEO of Future Insights Network.
Born in Chile, but a true global citizen - Maria has had a chance to experience it all.
From being born just as the Pinochet regime kicked off, bouncing around America, only for her world to be upended and her making the call to go back to Chile for her family.
And that was just in her first 20 years, plenty has happened since.
We go deep into her ability and habit of solving problems and spotting opportunities - which led to her moving quickly up the ladder in pretty much every company she has worked for.
Although she faced her fair share of misogyny, and even reached a point she had to confront her own biases.
Which tied into discovering a new problem for her to solve, as well as continuing her life value of ‘standing up for the little guy’.
It’s been quite the adventure.
Of course, working at 200% for your entire life does play catch up, and we go into detail about where she is at now - and her big plans for her future.
Watch the episode to find out exactly how it’s all played out.
