The Methodology
What is Cartografia dos Afetos?
To map is to recognize a territory. Affections are the experiences that move through us and shape the way we live.
Cartografia dos Afetos is an invitation to recognize that inner territory, understand the paths already walked, and navigate — with more awareness — the ones still ahead.
“Every important change in life calls for a new map. This is an invitation to find yours.”
