"Eight million children worldwide are in orphanages and up to 90% of these children are not actually orphans”. / Save the Children In this episode, you will be able to listen to advocate for responsible voluntourism Eva Cian, The Co-founder of NGO PILOT. Together with her, we will try to understand some global issues caused by voluntourism and shed some light on this so-called feel good by doing good travel. WHY SHALL WE CARE ABOUT VOLUNTOURISM? Every year westerners go abroad to volunteer and what we do know is that the popular travel type is seen as a do-good feel-good vacation but what is not looked closely enough at is the fact that volunteering abroad rarely have a positive impact you might think it has. If young people are not equipped to work with at-risk children in their home country why should they be able to do so abroad? Unregistered NGOs, for-profit travel agencies and volunteers unfit for the jobs, make voluntourism a multi-billion dollar market with a non-sustainable and truly damaging agenda.  If you would like to understand how can you contribute to making this industry more sustainable, contact Eva Cian here.

American professor and psychologists Dan Gilbert once said that “The reason most of us are unhappy most of the time is that we set our goals, not for the person we’re going to be when we reach them — we set our goals for the person we are when we set them.” Which leads to the question, how to actually set the right goals? What is your Northstar? Therefore, in this week's episode, you will be able to hear from Levi Yosef - Founder of Leaty, how to make your first step toward success and switch from being passive to actually involved in life. HOW TO SET THE RIGHT GOALS? Before setting any goals, you need to understand your core values. Don+t mistake someone else's goals for yours - this is a recipe for misery and stagnation. Use your goals as your Northstar and gather real data out of your experience, to quickly identify the right direction for yourself. Keeping that in mind, think about the resources to your disposal and how these can enable you to collect that data, whether it is a person you can talk to, or a project you can participate in. But remember that it's important to set goals that you can start with right away and that are measurable. And step by step, you continuously get closer to becoming the person you want to be. Base them on your core values Think about the next step to achieve them Makes them actionable and measurable Test them and revise at the later point If you would like to understand more about how to set the right goals for you, contact Levi Yosef and start achieving your goals.
