WECAN | Building the World We Want to See & Orchestrated Connecting

In this episode of WECAN, I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing David Homan, founder of Orchestrated Connecting and author of Orchestrating Connections - known as a “Connector of Connectors,” David connects people. David is an intentional idealist who has managed something rare. He has built trust and a purposeful world around him that mirrors his deepest values back to him. He is a deeply generous human who cares about the greater good more than anything else, and listening to his dreams and the massive action he takes to achieve them is a true shot of hope. We live in a world that often feels fractured, but David reminds us that trust is the cornerstone. He doesn’t just talk about community; he engineers it. Through his global network of 2,600 connectors and his platform SOAR Connect, David creates immersive frameworks where authenticity and vulnerability aren't just "nice to have", they are the requirements for giving a piece of our soul to others and finding true connection. He is also a recognised classical composer whose music can be found by saying “Alexa–please play the music of David Homan,” with 7 albums and international radio play. His latest project is a film or mini-series about a composer who loses his mind to Alzheimer’s. A Note from Stephanie: Listening to David made me dream bigger. It made me want to double down even more on creating the world I want to see and be a part of. We all have the power to co-create our ideal reality for ourselves and each other; it doesn’t even take that much. Ask yourself today: What can I do for someone else? What will my ripple effect be?

WECAN | Redefining Industrial Investing with Marianne Abib-Pech

In this powerful episode of WECAN, Stephanie chats with Early Stage Investor and Managing Partner at Transitions First, Marianne Abib-Pech, to discuss how she's redefining investing. Marianne is an extraordinary, unconventional leader who draws power from the uncharted path. As a true systems and transformation thinker, Marianne is federating the right people at the right levels to bring about a vital industrial renaissance for Europe. She is an outlier, investing in a completely underserved area and giving us a front-row seat to an actual systems transformation as it happens. As a results-driven professional who has dedicated the past 10 years to ventures that contribute to the UN Sustainable Development Goals, she understands that Industrial founders lack three things: Talent, Time, and Continued Capital. She is a hands-on investor with a portfolio of 20+ international startups, who lives by the motto: Challenge, Support, and Protect. She acts as a powerful bridge between entrepreneurship and investment, believing that true value creation comes from the ability to connect, communicate, and transform. Marianne is showing us in real time how to lead, how to think, and how to succeed. She is an extraordinary human being with a real sense of what the world needs right now.
