Elena Zafirova, a nxtgen herself, shares her
journey from graduating from a top boarding school to becoming a UK
& US qualified lawyer advising her friends’ parents on wealth
management and tax matters, to joining the leadership team of a
tech unicorn, to becoming the founder and CEO of DIONZ, a nxtgen
education start-up.
Elena and Francesco discuss the lessons and
opportunities that lie in having “dark days” and the importance of
building a strong value-aligned “personal advisory board” to remind
us of who we truly are and what our purpose is. In Elena’s case, it
is co-creating a world where we all support each other to learn how
to prosper and bring prosperity to others.
Elena's advice to senior generation family
members: have meaningful conversations with your nxtgen family
members as early as possible about all that is important including,
but not limited to family values, governance, and
wealth.
For nxtgens, Elena advises creating a “personal
advisory board” of value-aligned humans to stand by you on your
journey to realising your uniqueness.
In the second part of this episode, Francesco and
Elena take a deep dive into exactly what Preparedness is, how to
achieve it, and maintain it.
