Progress Not Perfection
Oct 25, 2025
Perfection is a myth. Progress is your power.
Your first speech will suck. Do it anyway.
Who I Am
In one sentence: I Walk the Talk!
I'm a macroeconomist, former advisor to the International Monetary Fund, and Chief Economist to the largest bank in the Balkans. Later, I earned my doctorate researching greenwashing in the food industry.
More importantly, I'm a mother who walked away from the institutional system to rebuild my life, starting with my health. For more than 20 years, I have maintained a vibrant, medicine-free life, with a biological age 15 years younger than my chronological age.
My Book
My philosophy is simple: the well-being of both humanity and Mother Earth is not a privilege, but a fundamental right. This conviction led me to write It Is Never Late for a Healthy Childhood, which became an international bestseller earlier this year.
The book reveals deceptive marketing and the truths they don't tell you about food, particularly sugar and ultra-processed food. It gives you tools, knowledge, and actionable steps to take control of your health, one step at a time.
Finding Global Book Publishing
"When a student is ready, a teacher comes." I was not inclined towards a classical publisher. I wanted a publisher who would support me rather than impose rigid procedures that detract from the message you want to convey.

My Favorite GBP Memory
"If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to reach far, walk with somebody."
Without the GBP team, my journey would be a solitude. Susmita, Ash and I fully resonate with each other. Our values are synchronized.
After giving birth to her first child, I expected Susmita to delegate someone else to me. Instead, she told me, "Your book and your mission are as important as my child."
This was a mind-blowing moment I will never forget.
Life After Publishing
My vision and mission have been shaped profoundly, and my life project is becoming a legacy. The project of assisting Mother Earth and humanity to heal is something much bigger than me.
As a macroeconomist, I pursue a top-down approach. I don't waste my time chasing butterflies. I am creating my garden, and the butterflies will come.
Something Unique
My middle name reflects my mantra: embracing discomfort. I push beyond my limits, nurturing growth in mind, body and spirit.
At age 52 with a biological age of 36, I compete in the official Italian tennis league. I compare myself only to myself and live each day trying to be a better version.

One Lesson From My Book
Be mindful of sugar in your food and drinks. We created a free app, "Sugar Spy," to detect more than 250 different hidden names of sugar.
The book includes a 30-day sugar-free challenge. Taking control of your life starts with reclaiming control over what you consume. It is about taking ownership of your health, your choices, and your life.
Advice for Aspiring Authors
Discover your mission and passion in life and live it congruently. Be kind to yourself, to other beings, and to Mother Earth.
The limits to our achievements do not exist. The only limit is in your head. If you can see it, you can be it. Do not wait, jump.
