Cécile Faulhaber

After a career in new technologies, Cécile Faulhaber feels the urgency to live life to the fullest. She leaves a comfortable life, which in fact was not so comfortable, …in search for a more meaningful life.

In the middle of Nature she had her first experiences of connection, realized alternative projects, and then synchronicities brought her to Canada.

The global vision and experiences she discovered at the Wolf School were so strong that she decided to make a film, “The Other Connection, a school in the wilderness“, to share the outcome of her quest.

This school, based on indigenous cultures, is one of the most successful in the world in terms of the amount of time children spend in the wild Nature. Its goal is to bring the culture of connection to light and life through mentorship and community, with mother Nature as the teacher.

“It takes a whole village to raise a child”

Gunter Pauli (1956) is an entrepreneur, pedagogue and author.
He pioneers innovations and creates new (disruptive) business models. He accompanied over 200 projects over the past quarter of a century, translating ideas with solid science into a vision implemented through entrepreneurship. These initiatives have evolved in three unicorns and dozens of demonstrations on how to transform society.

Gunter adheres to a philosophy summarized in his book “The Blue Economy” (2010) translated in more than 50 languages.
He proposes to avoid dividing opinions centered around “for or against”. Rather he continuously focuses on finding better solutions, much better indeed! He embraces radical change, shifting from the obsession to ever higher levels of efficiency, globalization and ever lower prices, to resilience and the capacity to better respond to the basic needs of all, by generating value with what is locally available.

He dedicates half of his time to inspire children with fables that empowers them to create a “SuperWorld” their parents could never have imagined. His latest book “The Economy of Happiness” is based on the successful implementation of game changing businesses, and outlines underlying principles that establish the successful pursuit of health and happiness.

Born and raised in Mexico City, he studied history, business administration and psychology at the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM); he also studied computer science and worked in business systemisation for 30 years.

His habit of meditation, which he has been teaching for over 40 years, has developed his mind, expanded his consciousness, balanced his emotions, harmonised his energy, strengthened his will and led him to find his true self.

Today, Noé Esperón, founder and director of the worldwide “Extra Ocular Vision®” project, wants all these benefits to be available to all children, teenagers and adults in the world: his meditation practices have been documented, structured, systematised and converted into a simple, natural and effective methodology that allows immediate results.

He has travelled to most of South America and some European countries to train Extra Ocular Vision® instructors.

Using his own values in his approach to the human being, self-knowledge, curiosity and open-mindedness since his childhood, this 39-year-old entrepreneur has nurtured and shaped from a very young age these qualities that drive action with respect for others and the environment.

His resources he begins to gather them since his early childhood in his family, in which one practices sports, astrology or even tarot. He develops his assets in Martial Arts for more than 14 years, with Kung-fu, pushing his passion very far to become French champion in 1999. Then in the travels that his parents encourage, from the age of 12, especially when he goes to the United States for a month in immersion in a family in Wisconsin. His pocket money; he sets it aside to go regularly with his backpack to discover other countries and cultures. His explorations of the surrounding world lead to other more interior explorations, nourished by a lot of reading and discoveries.

He invests another aspect of the human being through psychology, well-being, personal development and alternative medicine. Then economics, politics and sociology.
