Humans of Telecom
About this episode

"I want to live to 150, and make every year to count — full of passion, gratitude, and laughter!” ❤️

— Carla Oliveira, Head of Sales (Wholesale) at Go4Mobility, in conversation with Anurag Aggarwal


From being born in Angola and raised in Portugal…

To finding her calling in telecom — first in retail, then wholesale…

From interning at Portugal Telecom to leading global sales at Go4Mobility…

To becoming one of the top three women leaders in the telco industry —

this is the story of Carla Oliveira, a woman whose energy, authenticity, and zest for life light up every room she walks into!


In this episode of Humans of Telecom, Carla opens up about:

💫 How telco “found her” and why she fell in love with connecting people

🏆 The role of teamwork and purpose in creating lasting impact

💔 The deeply personal story of losing her mother mid-conference — and honoring her legacy through strength and professionalism

💃 The power of dance, discipline, and daily joy

🏋️‍♀️ Why her 7 a.m. gym routine keeps her grounded and sane

💰 That one time she won €10,000 on a TV contest

❤️ And her life’s mission — to live to 150 with passion, gratitude, and purpose!


Carla’s story reminds us that success is not only about achievement — it’s about authenticity, empathy, and the courage to keep dancing through life’s highs and lows!
