What do you do when something doesn’t work out for you the same way as you planned?

I would let it be… I would start to do something else and therefore I would create a distance. Then I would see things from a different perspective. Or I would ask myself: „How would a 6-year-old girl handle it?“

What would help to make women‘s VOICES more heard in the society?

If the girls have been raised since childhood like this and if they would see successful women in leadership roles since childhood.

Are you planning a „Change“ in 2022?

Yes, it will be a year full of innovations, prioritization and focusing on meaningful things.

What would I like to read about myself:

Recognition of my role as a mentor – from my successful mentees 🙂
