WHAT IS THE SERIES ABOUT? Young Voices is a project created by the Helsinki Hub of the Global Shapers youth organization. The aim is to give an opportunity for young people to talk about topics that are interesting to them, share their knowledge, and to inspire you. In the project, we will be launching new episodes, podcasts, and articles every two weeks. In the series, we will cover a range of topics from sustainability and personal development to health tech and AI — topics that feel vital to young people.

“The world is shaped by people. If you want to improve the world, you need to improve the people in it.”

In our first podcast episode, your host Milda Dapkeviciute, a life, and business coach, world traveler, and tourism expert, will be talking with Dima Syrotkin, an entrepreneur who is passionate about personal development, longevity, and coaching. As a co-founder of the Growthclub, CEO of the micro coaching organization Panda Training and a Ph.D. candidate in self-organizing teams at the Aalto University, Dima is a great person to talk to about how to get things done. Let yourself be inspired and hear about how to create better daily habits and accomplish things with a purpose in your life.

Behind the scene with Milda and Dima

A genuine interest in lifelong learning has motivated Dima to take part in a plethora of things. Even so, this doesn’t mean that life as a multitasker would be easy. Milda and Dima will be talking about how to be productive in your work and prioritize tasks efficiently when everything seems so urgent. Dima will tell us how he has been able to decrease his own workload and give more time to the things he feels most passionate about. He will also give us some insight into his daily life — outside the office and the library. So tune in and listen to Dima’s interesting and eye-opening story by clicking the link below!
