Welcome to S5E6 of the @MAGICademy Podcast! Our guest today is Megan Powell Cuzzolino, who is a prominent educational researcher and a project director at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She studies the role of awe in learning and development, and how emotional experiences can enhance workplace life in different fields, particularly in science education. We had a very interesting conversation about awe as a talent in different fields and how is essential for every type of talent to feel a certain level of awe when serving in a company or organization.

One thing we know for certain is that money or benefits alone don’t make people happy at work, some sense of belonging or motivation is needed. And that’s where awe and fulfillment come in. Megan shares some insights on childlike wonder and adult wonder; we deep dive into the concepts of gratitude and awe; we go over the role of cultural and individual differences in organizations when trying to boost awe; and much more!

Welcome to S4E12 of the @MAGICademy Podcast, where we’re joined by Kirill Krasnogir as our guest this week. Kirill is an entrepreneur and the founder of CleverPoint, a company specializing in neurotechnology and virtual reality applications for mental health assessment. We talk a lot about CleverPoint; stress, burnout and how these two concepts influence our professional and personal lives; and how productivity can be improved through the power of will and hard work.

Kirill´s vision is to leverage technology to improve mental health outcomes, making significant strides in how psychological well-being can be assessed and supported by using advanced tools. In this episode we also talk about these advanced tools, analyze some of his stories about mental health and managing stress in the workplace, and how stress doesn’t affect us all the same, but we can still find ways to manage it.
