On S5E7 of the @MAGICademy Podcast, we give a warm welcome to Sarah Hill! She is the founder and CEO of Healium, a company specializing in interactive media and mental fitness solutions. Aside from that, Sarah is an accomplished journalist with 12 Emmy awards under her hat, having dedicated over 25 years to storytelling and media innovation, and a background working with major news networks, including NBC, ABC, and CBS. She joins us today to talk about self-awareness and the power of immersive content for us to properly get to know about ourselves, our feelings, and how to behave in a corporate environment.

Sarah describes herself as a storyteller, using biometric inputs such as brain patterns and heart rate to tell her stories. We talk deeply about the different inputs the body gets, immersive stories and the effect they have on people, mental fitness as a relatively new concept, and how to leverage new technologies to have an efficient and productive state of mind.

Welcome once again to the @MAGICademy Podcast! On S5E3 we give a warm welcome to Jelena Aleksich to the show. She is a creative entrepreneur, visual storyteller, and founder of The Confetti Project, which began as a photography challenge in her bedroom and now has evolved into a global mental health storytelling platform. We talk about our playfulness and how it’s often something that we ignore but it ends up being vital for us to have a healthy and balanced adult life.

Like many entrepreneurs, Jelena had a completely different background from what she ended up doing, starting as a psychology student and then pivoting to follow a more creative path. In this episode, we explore this pivot and the motivations behind it, the playful mindset and how to cultivate it, mental health and Jelena’s answer to the issue, and much more!
