MPF Discussion with Manuel Giudice
Living into a future by design, rather than one by default with Manuel Giudice
 
 
About Manuel
Embarking on a journey at 19, marked by fortunate twists, from a sports bet triumph to academic scholarships, led Manuel to Rome, Helsinki, and England, settling in the UK in 2008.
As a dedicated meditator, Manuel
delved into the wisdom of Eastern spiritual leaders, exploring Buddhism,
Hinduism, Mysticism, and Yogic Science. In Manuel’s youth, football aspirations
guided him to train and play for AC Tricase's youth team in the Italian Serie C
league.
 
Fuelled by his father's rally car
racing passion, Manuel honed a competitive edge in go-kart racing, spending
much of his youth on tracks. A decade ago, salsa dancing unexpectedly became a
rejuvenating pursuit after joining a high-level community in London.
 
Comedy improvisation has been a
significant part of Manuel’s life, with numerous performances in small London theatres.
Defying Italian stereotypes, cooking isn't his forte; instead, Manuel finds joy
in meaningful conversations with guests.
 
Manuel interests span
appreciating art, beauty, and balance, coupled with a deep love for classical
music. A standout among his favorite Italian films is 'The Great Beauty' by
Paolo Sorrentino, celebrated for its multi-layered meanings and impactful use
of silence.
