What remains of you when the title leaves the room
Formal authority makes people follow a decision, but it cannot make them believe in it. An investigation into the power a leader carries beyond the title, and what happens when it stops being the reason people listen.
Who are you when they take the badge away?
Andrea Eboli investigates why so many people accumulate titles and achievements yet keep depending on external validation. And what remains when recognition disappears.
We have never talked so much about authenticity, and never faked it so much
Autopromotion was not born with social media. It only changed clothes. An inquiry into why the need to be seen keeps capturing us, and what changes when recognition begins from within.

Courage Is Having the Strength to Show Fragility: What We Do with What We Feel
In an episode of Gerações Cast, Andrea Eboli, psychologist Joyce Martinhão, and 21-year-old Paulinho dismantle the idea that vulnerability is weakness — showing why learning to feel, name, and choose where to open up is an exercise in conscious power.
