Most leaders don’t struggle because they lack answers, they struggle because they’re disconnected from the emotional patterns shaping their decisions.

One Spark Away is a global podcast exploring emotional intelligence, leadership and the small inner shifts that quietly change how we lead, decide, and relate to ourselves.

In a time many researchers describe as an emotional recession, this conversation opens space for a different kind of leadership. Not louder voices. Not faster solutions. But deeper awareness of what’s already at play beneath our habits, reactions and choices.

For the very first episode, I’m joined by my sister Sorana and we co-create this opening conversation together, from a place that shaped both of us in who we are today: Timișoara, Romania, our hometown.

Filmed in the beautiful studio of vivoproduction.ro (https://vivoproduction.ro/servicii/st..., this episode is both a beginning and a return home.

As you listen, notice what resonates and what doesn’t.

Your spark often appears in that awareness.

-What the “spark” in One Spark Away truly stands for, and the long-term vision behind this space
