About Between Worlds
If you feel deeply, think clearly, and find yourself at an inflection point, Between Worlds is for you.
If you have ever:
Succeeded inside systems that no longer energize you
Adapted so well you forgot you were allowed to choose
Felt both capable and restless at the same time
Wondered whether the discomfort is burnout or misalignment
You are not alone here.
What You’ll Find Here
I publish every two weeks, occasionally sooner when clarity demands it.
If you subscribe, you’ll receive essays that help you:
Name patterns you’ve been feeling but couldn’t articulate
Distinguish performance from alignment
Reclaim agency without violence
Redefine success on your own terms
Move from the world that shaped you to the world you choose
This is not career advice. It is structural reflection, the kind that helps you move from survival into selection.
I write to offer the keys I had to forge myself. New language. New frames. New ways to choose.
This is not a monologue. It is a room.
When something resonates, write back. Leave a comment. Share your reflections. The best essays begin in the margins of a conversation.
About Me
Hi, I’m Mariangela.
I was born in Italy and have lived and worked across Europe and the United States, studying in Austria, building a life and career in global technology, and now living in Seattle.
I grew up a perceptive child in a loud world, translating long before I knew that was what I was doing. I translated moods, tensions, silences, and eventually, actual languages.
Later, I spent two decades in global technology leadership inside some of the largest tech companies in the world, navigating systems, power, performance, and the occasional corporate identity crisis.
I have been the strategist, the builder, the stabilizer, the advisor.
I have also been the child who built competence as protection.
Between Worlds is where those two versions of me finally speak to each other.
A Final Note
You are not broken.
You are between thresholds.
All you need is the right key and the clarity to turn it.
