Paola Diana is a successful entrepreneur, best-selling author and female rights activist.

She embarked on a political journey after studying Political Science and Institutional Relations in her home country of Italy, where she joined the political campaign of former Prime Minister Romano Prodi. Paola currently lives in London, having founded Artermide Recruitment, which specialises in sourcing childcare, household staff and personal assistants for high net worth individuals. 

She is the bestselling author of ‘Saving the World. Women: the XXI’s Century Factor for Change’ and a prominent activist and philanthropist for women’s rights especially in the problem areas of domestic violence and women’s safety.

Paola and Nataliya talk about her abusive childhood and how it influences her choices in adulthood, her political beliefs and her ideas on the best path for modern women. To allow more stories to be heard with no filters and no hypocrisy, she has become the executive producer and host of the highly inspiring YouTube show and Apple Podcast: ‘Unleashed. The Game Changers’.

Paola also has a huge appreciation for interior design and takes the listeners through her beautiful home, describing the inspirational artists whose work she displays in her house, and candidly shares her aspirations for the future.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Paola grew up in a patriarchal and conservative family. She  had to find the courage to speak up. Believing in yourself and your value is the most important thing.
• Her childhood was dominated by her father who was very controlling. She found her strength with friends outside her home and became independent as young as possible by pursuing her education.
• When creating her own family Paola uses communication and non violence to avoid a dominating and controlling environment. 
• No one should stay in an unhappy or dangerous marriage. A marriage can be good if you find someone who treats you like an equal but if you don’t find that its better for a woman to be on her own.
• There is still a huge amount of stigma around divorced women and single women. Women should feel free and valued if they are not in a relationship.
• The #metoo movement despite its flaws has broken the cycle of silence and violence and allowed women to speak up disempowering men who abuse their dominant position.
• Paola’s experience in her early political career made her realise how polarised to the fringes of power and influence women are and encouraged her to write her book.
• Paola trains in Brazilian Jujitsu to keep fit and competes. She suggests it to all women for its self defence component.

BEST MOMENTS

‘For me you represent modern women of today, you are independent, successful and highly confident.’

‘Usually in families big dramas can come from small things because everything starts from control.’

‘I think family comes first before everything else.’

‘It’s the same as in the past in Italy with the Mafia. When people are silent horrible things happen.’

Mark Spicer one of the world’s best snipers who as a sniper instructor has trained snipers of many of the world’s military and paramilitary forces talks to Nataliya about his incredible skill set and how an ability to outthink others is what makes a sniper special.

He discusses his journey from the military to the corporate world and how as we become increasingly unaware of our surroundings,  focusing on our phones, we are making it much easier for someone to get close to us.
