Make Your Dream Your Most Important Project
In this workshop, Gabriela will show you how to turn your dream into the most important project of your life — using a science‑based method designed to work *with* your brain, not against it.
You’ll discover a practical, structured approach that helps you gain clarity, build momentum, and finally move from intention to action.
With over 20 years of experience in communication and project management, Gabriela practiced the CHILD Method directly by the psychologist who created it. The approach is warm, accessible, and deeply grounded in real-life results.

Strategic Thinking Lab for Emerging Leaders - Make real decisions.
If you’ve recently stepped into leadership, you’re probably facing decisions that feel heavier than expected.
Not because they’re complicated.
Because they involve trade-offs.
You might be circling:
* A hire you’re unsure about
* A pricing change with ripple effects
* A pivot that feels risky
* A messy internal process
* A trade-off with no clean answer
This is a small, facilitated working session (max 3 participants).
We take real decisions and think them through properly.
Not networking.
Not theory.
Not pitching.
Structured thinking.
### Format
• 3 participants
• Each brings one real decision
• We clarify the actual problem
• Separate facts from assumptions
• Map options and consequences
• Identify trade-offs
• Define the next move
