I need your help


After three weeks sick, I am back with renewed energy and a clear mission.

In 2026, I want to support as many people as possible in clarifying their thinking.

So I need your help.

People say it takes five links to reach any person on Earth, so I want to see how many people we can reach together.

I am looking for introverts who think deeply, love learning, and are always coming up with new insights, but who struggle to organise and express the depth and nuance of their thinking.
If this sounds like you, please fill out this short survey:https://tally.so/r/obRO8P
Please do not polish your answers or try to “be nice.” I want to read your unedited opinion.
If this does not sound like you, please share this call with your network. In particular, THAT person who came to mind while reading this call.
As a thank you, everyone who fills out the survey before Sunday, January 18 at midnight will be entered into a draw for a 1:1 Clarity Call, where I will help you translate the depth and nuance of your thinking into a clear map of ideas.
Every respondent who opts in will also receive a summary of the insights from this survey.

(The call is also available on LinkedIn – if that makes it easier to share)

The results of the survey will inform everything I do this year, and it would mean the world to me if you could answer and share it with your network.

Best,
Bianca

Tired of hearing people say they want to create knowledge that impacts the world, yet they are not even curious about what is already out there — because learning is too much effort… 🙄 Then, when you invite them to challenge and improve their thinking skills, the answer is: “Why should I? We have AI now!” I mean.. what the hell are you doing, people?...

This playbook issue is part of the Research Roadmap series. In 2025 you will be able to choose which series you want to follow. Hello Reader, In previous issues, we explored your research vision and the problem standing between where we are now and that vision. Today, let’s introduce the idea of the Knowledge Gap — the missing knowledge needed to solve the problem and move us closer to your vision. In practice, when considering a problem, you may encounter three types of gaps: Practical Gap -...

Enrollments for the PKM for Research Mentorship are opening soon. Join the waitlist to be the first to know when enrolments open. Hello Reader, Welcome to the first issue of the Research Roadmap series. Today it is all about creating your Research Vision. A Research Vision is the future you are trying to build. It is the reason why you are conducting the research and, when comunicating to others, why you are asking people to fund it or give it any attention. There are three options on how to...
