It's April 2nd. We are somewhere in the Corona pandemic. How do you experience the situation?
It's like being in a movie. Seriously. I really don't believe that. I did not process everything completely. It's like I'm in automatic mode. You know, waking up, working, cleaning and cooking and things like this. And then time to time wondering what thinks to do. Will I read this book? Will I watch this series? Will I start drawing? Doing some exercise here and there. Now then I am concerned with my mom. I will block some time and that's it. But it's completely weird. It´s not like reality.
Is there anything that you learn about yourself or your society at the moment?
I'm not sure if it is something that I've learned. Maybe more something for me to observe. What is always coming to my mind is something like "we have to slow down". Going back some decades where we are not so close to each other. I mean, where it was not so easy to be in another place. A time in which we were not using all the resources we can use. Producing stuff. Buying stuff and things like that.
So it's like like a message that we must slow down. We must we must consider what is available, really available for us. And probably all of us, we are getting confused because it's so weird. Some super virus forces us to do that.
For me, it's already almost two weeks that I am alone. And I'm not sure if I'm processing that much, if I'm learning a lot. I'm not sure. I'm still feeling lost very often.
If you if you look ahead, to a time in which we somehow maybe learned to live with this virus or the situation is different. Is there anything you can think of that you want more of or less of?
I think that I don't know if it's going to be like that, but most probably I want to have more freedom for me. In terms of not being so concerned about minor issues. Sometimes we are stuck and thinking about if we like things or complaining about things you have or that you don't have.
When you have one of your basic needs, that is the freedom to go wherever you want and to stay with people you love. Then you start thinking that most of the other of things that were bothering you are really not important.
And sometimes I think that we are or that I am expecting like the perfect situation or this super special thing to come. But when we we start to think "What can be good for us? What is really essential for us?"
And is there anything specific you want to have less of or more of?
I want to have more good time with my relatives. But it is not about quantity but quality. I think somehow we got connected. Not with everyone, but the closest ones. What I want less for me is to control the feeling. Sometimes when you create situations that are not necessary, we are not able to control ourselves. It's about changing the focus on what what is important for me.
One thing that I would say that I don't want anymore is the way I'm relating to my work. But this is not about the pandemic. That's just something that is still strong even in this situation.
So the last question: when you think of the future, what is your wildest dreams? What? Don't you even allow yourself to dream?
I was discussing with some friends about a new business to be build. So we had an idea like some months ago, but it was more like a joke. I was thinking yesterday, I really believe that it can be a good business: we were thinking about sexual phantasies more or less. So how to bring to the reguala women the freedom about her sexuality without being dirty. How do we trigger them, you know, to release themselves. We had some ideas about how to make a business of this, like sex toys and things like that.
I know so many, many women that have no clue and they are shy and they don't even try it. Seriously, why?
And then so we start thinking about this kind of business of giving people the chance to try without them having really asked. So a kind of surprise. But then I was just wondering about different ways to provide this inspiration. Nowadays, we have so many podcasts talking about sex. And I don't know if this exists or not, but we want to create something to turn people on.
Something that is build by regular people for regular people. Something normal and making it popular. You could expect to have some sex symbol or somebody from porn industry or things like that. But this is a kind of myth, everybody can be able to control their sexuality. And this is not dirty. You don't need to be shy. Everybody has this power. And especially for women: "Guys, you can have pleasure like that. It's easy."
Beautiful.
And I have never really thought about to have a business like that. And I was like, why not? Writing and recording material. I have some friends that are very creative. So we can just sit together, get some alcohol and we are going to do that.
Normally, this is just like a joke. But this week I started thinking seriously. I was like: "How can I do it? How is a podcast released? Is it the right format? Do I have another format? How to make it?
Because then I can have the freedom I want, you know, and it is something that I truly believe. It is not something just for money. And it would make people so happy.
It's beautiful. Thank you.
