Welcome to the Elevate Podcast! In today's session, Ramita delves deep into the life and experiences of Carlos Moreno, a remarkable boxing professional who not only shares his life's journey but also imparts invaluable wisdom on resilience, the significance of community, and the transformative power of art forms like music, reading, movies, and books.
Amidst the highs and lows of living in the low socio-economic regions of Lisbon and the UK, Carlos found his resilience. He drew strength from his experiences, transforming challenges into stepping stones towards his goals. This resilience wasn't just confined to the boxing ring; it extended to his faith and personal life as well.
Beyond his boxing pursuits, Carlos found solace and inspiration in various art forms. Music, movies, and books became his companions on the journey of self-discovery. These creative outlets not only fueled his imagination but also deepened his understanding of the world around him. They provided him with fresh perspectives, helping him face the challenges of his life with renewed insight and creativity.
