En este episodio conversamos con Pipita Gómez Olivera quien nos da su testimonio de fe y entrega y nos transmite la importancia de la conexión con el otro y con Dios. Pipita tiene sesenta años, está casada hace treinta tres años y tiene cuatro hijos, tres nueras y un nieto. Es argentina pero vive hace trece años en la ciudad de Miami en donde ejerce su profesión de psicóloga. Hace algunos meses, a Pipita le diagnosticaron ELA (esclerosis lateral amiotrófica) una enfermedad progresiva del sistema nervioso que afecta las neuronas en el cerebro y la médula espinal, y causa pérdida del control muscular. A Pipita está comenzado a afectarle, entre otras cosas, el habla. A pesar de eso, nuestra invitada con una generosidad inmensa se dispuso a conversar este rato con nosotros para compartirnos su experiencia de fe. Pipita nos cuenta el impacto que tuvo en su vida este diagnóstico inesperado, cómo va de la mano de Dios sosteniéndola en todo momento y cómo va buscando y encontrando un sentido a su dolor. Conversamos acerca de la importancia de la conexión como pilar del amor, la necesidad vital de ser mirados y escuchados por otro, de vivir conectados. Y nos invita buscar esta conexión cada día con el que tengamos cerca, o no tan cerca, a través de pequeños gestos de amor. “No tengo plata ni oro, pero te doy lo que tengo”: un espacio donde encontrarnos con el que verdaderamente nos llena, para que nos tome de la mano, nos levante y nos ponga en camino nuevamente. Somos Sol, Colo y Tere, con el apoyo del Pbro. Gastón Lorenzo, Parroquia Católica Nuestra Señora del Pilar, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Entrevistamos a personas que nos comparten su vida y nos ayudan a profundizar nuestra fe. - Contactate con nosotros: podcastdelpilar@gmail.com Música: - Cortina musical: "Tan pobre y tan rico"· Jóvenes Catedral de San Isidro.

This week, Andy and Stephen have a conversation with Salomon Ligthelm, an award winning filmmaker who has directed projects for the Weekend, Ford, Adidas, and countless others. Salomon opens up about what it was like being raised by missionary parents in South Africa and Dubai, what it means to work in the shadows, and the steps that lead to a period of burn out and depression in his life and career. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/beautifulfailures/support
I've followed Salomon's work for a long time, ever since he broke into the industry with his beautiful short experimental films like Pater Noster or Anomaly. Now a renowned director, Salomon, a son to missionary parents who opened his eyes to the world, is a self-taught filmmaker whose international background–––a childhood spent in Johannesburg––– , Dubai, and Sydney–––figures strongly in his distinctive, visceral yet meditative work. His textural and experimental style looks to find new ways of exploring visual and narrative storytelling. His work has garnered recognition across the world, with inclusion in both the Saatchi & Saatchi and 1.4 New Directors Showcases, two Golds and three Silvers at the YDAs, a Gold Cannes Lion, multiple AICP wins with work featured at the MOMA, shortlists for Music Video of the Year at Shots, Best Alternative Video and Best New Director at the UKMVA's - and a growing list of awards from the industry including the British Arrows, Cannes D&AD. We talk about finding your feet in the industry, how to find the right stories, how personal and commercial work tie together, and how he builds a production from idea to script to crew. Salomon is one of the greats, and a kind soul as well. Salomon's website https://ligthelm.work/ Salomon's instagram https://www.instagram.com/salomonligthelm/

One reason young creatives are so focused on learning new skills is because they believe those skills will get them jobs. Sure, learning techniques will help you make better work, but at a certain point, it isn't enough to be the best button presser in the room. Directors Mike Pecci and Salomon Ligthelm break down the importance of understanding and articulating your process as a Director and how developing that process helps you define your tone as a storyteller. Your process, that toolkit we're always talking about, is what separates you as a creative. Building your toolkit allows you to compete for jobs with your process so you don't have to cut your prices.
