I am Geovany Dias, and I am finally returning to The Last Student after stopping in early 2023.

In this episode, I talk about the importance of momentum and how I lost mine when I moved to Luanda and let my daily habits slide.

I also share what is coming next, including raw, unedited conversations and interviews with friends like Yaron and Robert.

If you are feeling stuck, I hope this helps you just keep moving.

As a woman of many talents and involved in so much, she shares the source of her profound love for people, unwavering passion for Africa, and contagious enthusiasm for life.
