Hello sister!
I’m Ariana and I want to tell you a little bit about myself.
Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed about a better world where we could be kinder to ourselves, others, animals, and Nature.
This is my mission, my purpose, and it has taken me to study, work and live in different countries; it has led me to study fascinating subjects, and I’ve been able to lead projects and wonderful teams at the intersection of innovation, sustainability and technology, both at international development organizations and in the corporate world.
I could tell you all about the many projects I’ve loved working in, but honestly, what I enjoy the most is the end result, seeing the life of a single mom in a rural area transformed, a corporate leader evolve into a kind spokesperson defending people and Nature, a natural area protected, and the animals living there having the life they deserve.
Let me tell you two things I know to be true after over 25 years of working to improve our world:
1. When women are in charge, trust themselves, and unleash their power and potential, people and Nature do better.
2. The global economic system in which we live and its effect on us makes it harder for women to accomplish all of the above. We must try harder, speak louder, and constantly walk up-hill.
And so, in the face of the climate and biodiversity loss crises, I knew I had to do my part, and knowing these two facts led to the creation of Alterleap in a quite natural and obvious way.
We want to heal and protect Mother Earth and her inhabitants. For this, we need women at their best, their potential unleashed, and ready to take action. Let’s begin this journey together and build the world we dream of.
Because, and please never forget this: when women work together and lead with a strong mindset and a compassionate heart, we are unstoppable. You are unstoppable.
Welcome home, sister.
Love,
A
