Last week I had the pleasure to facilitate the webinar “Building our resilience during these unprecedented times”.

We exchanged around:
> What happens to our brain in times of crisis?
> How can we better understand and manage our emotions?
> What can we do to improve our wellbeing?

A big thank you to for making this possible and a big thank you to our 100+ participants who also shared their best practices with us. Here is the recording

Watch our webinar and discover how to find work-life balance in confinement and fight isolation.

So grateful for many other elephantparents around me, for our elephant school System’s Little House with their elephant teachers, and also for a few tiger parent friends,who bring in another perspective and equally want the best for their kids.

It's okay for parents to nurture, protect, and encourage their children, especially when they're very young.

We just talked about this today in a room full of skilled expats from all sorts of different fields. Amy Cuddy. One of my TED favourites.

Body language affects how others see us, but it may also change how we see ourselves. Social psychologist Amy Cuddy argues that "power posing" — standing in a posture of confidence, even when we don't feel confident — can boost feelings of confidence, and might have an impact on our chances for succ...

Angucken, wenn du eine kleine Erinnerung brauchst, warum es soooo toll ist, ein Pinguin zu sein. Und warum du keine Giraffe werden brauchst. Ausser du bist tatsächlich eine :)

Love my life. Love my work.

Vielen Dank Elke für das Video.
