Welcome to a special series ‘Conversations That Count’ featuring Singapore-based
professionals. This sunny island has been my home since 2009, so I’m excited to
shine a spotlight on the inspiring residents I share this sunny island with!
About our guest:
Montse Castells, is originally from Barcelona and has lived in London, Hong Kong,
and now Singapore for 17 years. She loves nature and has a passion for health, food
and people. This has led to her launching The Wellness Hood. Starting with digital
resources and a podcast, she aims to create a wellness community.
If you're looking to enhance your communication skills and connect with others in a
meaningful way, this episode is for you!
Here are just a couple of takeaways from our conversation:
Nature Enhances Communication: Nature improves communication by promoting presence and deeper connections through its peaceful environment.
Glimpses of Happiness: finding joy in simple moments, especially in nature, can boost well-being and enhance interpersonal communication.
Listen to the full episode to gain more valuable insights on the power of nature in
communication and well-being. We recommend you listen to this episode while
walking in nature as we enjoyed doing while recording this at the beautiful Fort
Canning Park in Singapore!
