The search for true beauty

Hello! I’m Puri. Purification. I confess that I’ve never liked my name. My grandmother, who gave it to me, always told me: “Well, if you don’t like it, go and change it! I never did, and I’m glad because now, a few years later, I love it because it connects me to my process of self-knowledge and getting back to my essence, to my “core”, removing onion layer after onion layer. I have always been a restless seeker and passionate about the school of life. Since I was a child I have been very curious, everything caught my attention and I loved to learn. I was always “happy”. In fact during my scholarship in Mexico my nom de guerre was “Alegria Alegria”. Around the age of 39 I had a deep crisis that was a turning point. I discovered that I was not happy with my life. Apparently I had everything, I couldn’t complain, a good husband, a wonderful daughter, family, friends, a well-functioning business of my own, health… but I was not happy. I felt empty, unmotivated and sad. How could that be? I had hit rock bottom, and when you’ve hit rock bottom you can only go up. I started to look for “Happiness”. They say that when the student is ready, the teacher arrives. My first great teacher was my dear Borja Vilaseca, during the “Master in Personal Development and Leadership” at the Faculty of Economics at the University of Barcelona. Curiously, the same faculty where twenty-one years earlier I had studied Business Administration. Since then I have never stopped admiring Borja and keeping him in my mind. Then came many other teachers and inspirations.
