Description

What’s your nature? It’s an incredibly deep question to ponder but one that can be the clue to finding out how to feel fulfilled. When faced with a turning point in his life, my guest today, , spent some time trying to discover his nature and figure out what was next for him. Enrique was a consultant turned tech entrepreneur. After living abroad for many years, he decided to move back home to Mexico City and start a coding bootcamp that, he believed, was going to make a huge impact on the country by opening doors to new tech talent. Unfortunately, things rarely go as planned and after trying hard to make his company work out, Enrique decided to close up shop. This decision led him to question pretty much everything in his life — his attitudes, his chosen path, his passions. I sit down with Enrique to talk about his journey working in different countries, building a company and his year-long journey of self-discovery.Enrique is a global and multilingual professional and entrepreneur who was born and raised in Mexico City, but has lived in four countries and speaks four languages. His professional journey comprises a mixture of management consulting, strategy, business development, and entrepreneurship. He is a naturally curious person and has a strong passion for nature, opera, cycling, and personal development. Enrique holds a B.S. in Chemical Engineering (cum laude) from Northwestern University and an MBA from London Business School. This is a public episode.

Ever stood on the edge of a big decision, wondering if it's the right move? If you've ever wondered, "Is this it?" while gazing at your daily grind, you're not alone. After making it to the top of the company I had worked at for eleven years, I took a leap, and all I could say was, "Sh*t, I just quit my job!" The future's hazy, but many have faced the same uncertainty and come out stronger. We usually hear about their successes after the leap, but what about the messy middle? How'd they find the courage? What were their fears? What would they do differently? And how did they discover what they really wanted? Each week, I'll share stories of people who've taken big leaps, and I'll talk about my own journey. Join us as we explore change, resilience, and finding fulfillment in the unknown. "Sht I Just Quit My Job" is your guide to embracing the messy middle and discovering your potential beyond uncertainty. maricellaherrera.substack.com
