Una madre de dos hijos en edad escolar, que navega por la vida en un país extranjero, comparte su experiencia tratando de equilibrar un trabajo exigente, su pareja y sus intentos de tener una vida social digna, algo de tiempo para montar en moto y componer música, y ayudar a avanzar en la igualdad de género. Con un toque de humor y una buena dosis de anécdotas sobre las pequeñas catástrofes que le ocurren manteniendo tantas pelotas en el aire, este podcast es para quienes buscamos reírnos de los altibajos de la vida cotidiana y sabemos que somos muy pero que muy privilegiados si nuestra máxima desgracia es coger piojos o quedarnos sin canguro para los niños.

This episode’s guest, Keteney Conti, is a Brazilian mom in Italy and an IT professional who works on AI at work every day. Her daughter has to choose a school track at 14, and that choice got her asking what work will look like by the time her daughter enters it.
We start with what AI is actually changing. It’s reshuffling which tasks inside a job are worth paying a person for, faster than training can keep up, far more than it’s eliminating whole jobs. In this age of AI, what skills matter most? We argue that we’ll be hiring for judgment, meaning the ability to decide under incomplete information. We also look at a paradox: AI is automating the junior execution work where judgment used to be learned, so what happens to the junior-to-senior ladder? And we get practical about what schools and parents can each do to teach analytical thinking and problem framing, for jobs that don’t exist yet.
Plus a question for you: are you building the judgment for AI, or just hoping the ladder still works the way it used to?

03x02: Accidentes, cicatrices y no rendirse nunca 🩹
Este episodio no estaba en el plan, pero mi hijo Alex llevaba meses pidiéndome contar su accidente de esquí, y a mí nadie me suplica salir en el podcast. Así que hoy entrevisto a un hombre en construcción (y ya maravilloso).
Hablamos de una muñeca con 9 puntos, de sushi comido con una sola mano en urgencias, de anestesia con sabor a Coca-Cola y del miedo a volver a esquiar. Alex lo cuenta en inglés, su idioma de confianza, pero aquí somos todas flexibles.
Después, obvio, hablamos de qué dice la ciencia sobre el miedo a la recaída y por qué, en la infancia, el factor que más pesa en la recuperación es tener cerca a alguien que acompañe y dé el empujoncito. Y de postre, la definición de resiliencia de un niño de 8 años: "You never give up."
Todas tenemos cicatrices que cuidar. Ojalá también tengamos puntales cerca. 💛

03x01: [English version] Back to school (or not) 📚
🇬🇧 Otro episodio en inglés, ¡a practicar idiomas!
I’m back after a very long, amazing summer, and truly happy to be starting Season 3 of “Risas y Otras Catástrofes”. This episode is a little experiment: instead of my usual format, I asked 6 women in tech what they're looking forward to and afraid of this back-to-school season, and built around that. Actually, their answers broke my question before I even finished asking it. It turns out "back to school" seems to speak mostly to moms with school-age kids. And I realized that was never really the point; what each of them was actually describing was whatever gives their September its shape, kids or no kids. I answered too, and this back-to-school reset left me feeling so alive, which is why that's the song closing out this episode: “So Alive”.
Let me know what you think of this experiment in the comments, and enjoy the episode!
