Chiara Brugiati - Investor Relations and Audience Development Professional #324
Finding Legacy Through Music, Healing, and Finance: Chiara (Ash X) on the Yes People Podcast
Host Savia Rocks opens Season 7 of the Us People Podcast with reflections on legacy, shedding trauma, and using hardship for growth, then interviews Chiara (artist name Ash X), an Italian-Peruvian multilingual professional with a songwriting degree and a career in investor relations/audience development.
Chiara shares growing up in Perugia, her Peruvian grandmother’s influence on her music and confidence, studying jazz and songwriting in the UK, and the benefits and challenges of a songwriting degree, including vulnerability, critique, and toxic competition. She discusses spirituality, the power of words, meditation, and finding peace, plus a difficult relationship and accident that shifted her from pursuing music as a career to finance, inspiring interest in venture capital and equity after meeting Paolo Ardoino.
She names key collaborators, favorite life-soundtrack songs, defines her legacy as leaving “light,” and shares where to find her online.
