As I\u2019ve gone deeper into impact work, it has never felt more right, but it\u2019s also worth reflecting on why we choose this way when there are easier ones.<\/p>\n<p>For me, it started with a drive to understand.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve always been very curious. About places, people, stories, values, and drives. I left my hometown early and have lived in many different places, from Scandinavia and Asia to Latin America. Living across cultures made me clearer on what I value, and also showed how many ways there are to live, run a business, define meaning, and what often gets in the way.<\/p>\n<p>Over time, it became an ability to see patterns quickly and address misalignments. I kept noticing the same gaps &#8211; in business, communities, and personal choices, and how they created frustration or wasted energy.<\/p>\n<p>In some places, people value freedom and openness on the surface but avoid depth and connection in practice. In others, everything looks organized, but underneath people are burned out or disengaged. It forced me to pay attention to deeper patterns instead of appearances.<\/p>\n<p>In development and business, I\u2019ve seen organizations say they value impact, but act in ways that prioritize volume or quick returns. Addressing that gap, between what people aim for and how things are structured, became part of my approach. One of the most powerful ways to build trust, engagement, and loyalty, though not the fastest. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; use_custom_gutter=&#8221;on&#8221; gutter_width=&#8221;2&#8243; make_equal=&#8221;on&#8221; module_class=&#8221;flexed&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; width=&#8221;60%&#8221; width_tablet=&#8221;&#8221; width_phone=&#8221;80%&#8221; width_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/samiraholma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Colombia-village-villa-leyva-samira-holma.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;samira holma village colombia walking&#8221; title_text=&#8221;Colombia village villa leyva samira holma&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||0px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.24.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Cormorant|300|on||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;#000000&#8243; text_orientation=&#8221;center&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Afternoon well spent in a small town outside of Bogota, Colombia<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;||||false|false&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>Systems like short funding cycles or metrics built around numbers reward speed, visibility, and scale, which often means alignment gets pushed aside.

On the surface, the result looks the same, but the cause \u2014 and what you do with it \u2014 is very different.<\/p>\n<p>Getting up to speed in different places, picking up new languages, interacting with people who see the world differently, from indigenous communities to passionate local entrepreneurs and creatives, taught me to be careful with assumptions and you can never communicate too clearly. Sometimes that still doesn\u2019t help. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n<p>Living this way, dividing my time between places, and constantly choosing what to prioritize shaped more than my observations.
