Spotlight on Ana Patricia Hassan de McGowan: A Voice for Panama’s Stories

In its September 2025 edition, Mundo Social — one of Panama’s leading social and business magazines, highlighting prominent personalities, inspiring entrepreneurs, and stories shaping the country’s cultural and corporate landscape — featured an in-depth interview with Ana Patricia Hassan de McGowan, exploring her journey as a communicator, mother, entrepreneur, and advocate for Panama’s identity and culture.

Ana Patricia, currently a spokesperson for Punta Pacifica Realty, also founded A Spotlight to Panama, a platform dedicated to sharing stories that often go untold—whether about culture, destinations, lifestyle, or the many hidden strengths of Panama. 

In her conversation with Mundo Social, she discusses how storytelling has always been central to her life, from her early days when she would practice speaking in front of the mirror to balancing her professional life with being a mother of triplets. 

She emphasizes authenticity, connection, and a narrative that honors both the modern and traditional aspects of Panama. Her goal is to let Panama be seen in all its richness — its culture, its talent, its potential — and to show that there’s value in uplifting positive stories as well as being honest.

If you want to delve deeper into her vision, the challenges she faces in luxury real estate, and the lessons she carries as a woman leading in both communications and business, read the full interview in Mundo Social.
