Zum ersten Mal spreche ich mit einem Schweizer Comedian hier in meinem Studio! Haltet euch fest! Sein Name beginnt mit IV und endet mit IC - also mehr Jugo geht nicht! Sven Ivanic hat seine Jus Karriere für seine Leidenschaft hingeschmissen. Das Gerichtsurteil - war absolute Freiheit für seine Seele! In der Schweiz nennt man ihn den "Jusländer" und heute nenne ich ihn gerne "Ausländer mit Stiel". Heute tourt er mit seinem zweiten Comedy Programm „Stielbruch“ durch die ganze Schweiz und kombiniert auf der Bühne die Jugos und die Schweiz!

Stand-Up-Comedian, Jurist, satirischer Videoschiedsrichter, aufgewachsen im Säuliamt, Wurzeln in Kroatien: In «Musik für einen Gast» erzählt Sven Ivanic aus seinem kontrastreichen Leben. Morgens um halb 9 setzt sich Sven Ivanic an seinen Arbeitstisch und schreibt Witze – «zumindest im Optimalfall», wie er betont. Ein abendfüllendes Comedyprogramm auf die Beine zu stellen, braucht nicht nur Kreativität, sondern auch Routine und Disziplin. Die hat Ivanic aufgebracht und tourte 2022 mit seiner Soloshow «JUSländer» durch die Schweiz. Rund 80 Auftritte in einem Jahr und das neue satirische Videoschiedsrichter-Format «Das VAR‘s» von SRF Sport haben ihn einem breiteren Publikum bekannt gemacht. Mittlerweile ist der Humor sein Hauptberuf. Studiert hat Ivanic Rechtswissenschaft, in Genf, auf Französisch: «Da kam vielleicht mein Ego ins Spiel: Ich wollte schauen, ob ich das kann.» Er konnte – und entdeckte in einem Rhetorikkurs, wie viel Freude ihm der Umgang mit Sprache bereitet. Aufgewachsen ist Ivanic im Zürcherischen Säuliamt, seine Eltern in Kroatien: «Ich weiss genau, wie es riecht, wenn ich in Zagreb in den Lift steige und in den fünften Stock fahre zur Wohnung meiner Grossmutter. Oder auch der Geruch des Meeres oder das Zirpen der Grillen: All das ist untrennbar mit meiner Kindheit verbunden.» In «Musik für einen Gast» erzählt er von den langen Autofahrten in den Süden, die als Kind seine Sommerferien prägten, warum es ihn als Jugendlichen für ein Jahr in den Kanton Jura verschlug und wie er am allerersten Konzert, das er gemeinsam mit seinen Eltern besuchte, einen Schuh verlor, aber Erinnerungen fürs Leben gewann.

Then our feature story with Dr. Aarti Ivanic concerns the marketing of junk food and its impact on kids health.
Wäre das Aufgebot nicht im Spamordner hängengeblieben, Sven Ivanic wäre längst für die Schweiz aufgelaufen. Oder für Kroatien. Nun muss er als Comedian und Jurist seine Brötchen verdienen und schmeisst sich in der Freizeit in gefälschte Fussballshirts aus Plastik.

Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/9Hgicyaj7VI As the virtual world around us continues to grow and expand, companies are having to dive a little deeper into how consumers feel about their brand experiences, especially since customer behavior has changed since the pandemic. Rasto Ivanic, who serves as founder & CEO of GroupSolver, sits with Neal Bloom and Ashok Kamal, Executive Director of Tech Coast Angels San Diego, and shares his insights on how businesses can make important product and marketing decisions faster, and with more confidence by using the startup’s market research technology. GroupSolver is a market research platform that builds intelligence surveys to ask the why, how, and what questions that virtually every consumer company has in the new normal of work-from-home culture. The startup is working to change the way people view market research and focus on the fundamentals of business reasoning. 4:30 Rasto chats about how he shifted from economics to biotech to entrepreneurship, as well as what brought him to sunny San Diego. After completing his Ph.D. in applied economics from Purdue, Rasto worked at McKinsey for five years, not knowing what he wanted to dedicate his career to. He decided he wanted something more long-term, leading him to Mendel Biological Solutions, a small biotech company in the Bay Area, which grew and bred massive grasses to convert to biofuels. After oil prices crashed, he was considering his next career move amid relocating to San Diego with his wife. 5:56 Rasto explains the genesis of GroupSolver. He was at a crossroads when deciding whether to continue to help nonprofits make better decisions or part ways from the grant making process entirely. He and his wife soon realized that everything they were doing to help nonprofits was essentially market research and that there was a market for their services, sparking the idea for GroupSolver. 8:10 Rasto discusses how GroupSolver used investor money to prove the company’s viability. Similar to most learning experiences, Rasto felt the startup nearing an edge on multiple occasions, forcing the company to adapt and make tough decisions fast. In the past two years, GroupSolver has doubled its revenue and secured loyal customers; this has allowed the startup to stabilize the team, and become efficient in paying off any loans. 12:16 Rasto delves into unique cases for which GroupSolver was used. For one project, he and his team partnered with Amazon’s Alexa team to find out why people listen to music, so Alexa’s product development team could better understand the people they were building the features for. That project proved successful when Amazon became a repeat GroupSolver customer. 16:04 Rasto discusses how COVID-19 has specifically impacted consumer behavior. In January, GroupSolver partnered with a food producer in efforts to test out customer relations with canned goods. However, in March they realized that the demand for canned goods had decreased given people’s newfound interest to experiment with fresh ingredients while being in quarantine. Listen in to hear how GroupSolver helps brands like Amazon learn more about their customers’ behaviors and why investors favor the approach Rasto takes to fundraising.

In this week's podcast I am talking with Torey Ivanic about her brave decision to publish her Metoo memoir, No Big Deal, From Athlete to Advocate: A Memoir of Childhood Betrayal and a Journey to Justice,#nobigdealbook- which has become an Amazon bestseller. We talk about the power in sharing your story, how to empower your kids against sexual violation, how to look out for grooming, how the lack of sex ed in the US is a major problem with regards to empowering us against predators, and the importance of finding good, healthy coping mechanisms and what that may look like. Torey Ivanic, the founder of Open Space, is a Classical Homeopath, Mastermind Facilitator, Coach and Author who helps change agents and catalysts live authentic, intentional, healthy lives with purpose and connection. She's also a wife and mom who gets outside and plays in the Open Space as often as possible. Her unique experience as a physician assistant and homeopath compelled her to seek justice and prevent further abuse at the hands of her perpetrator. Throughout her healing journey, Open Spaces have nourished and soothed her soul. Outdoor spaces such as mountains, oceans, or fields of flowers, and indoor spaces such as yoga studios, therapist's office, writing retreats, and self-development programs, have worked together to enable and empower Torey to heal her body, mind, and soul. The message of this book changed as she finished writing it. She thought her goal was to write it for her thirty-year-old self and help people who needed to heal from a similar trauma and its inevitable collateral damage and relationship. By the end, she knew she was also writing it for her children and future generations. She wants to be a part of the upstream change--not just healing for the wounded, but prevention through a grassroots movement to teach parents and children the tools and skills they need to stay safe and healthy. The mission behind Open Space is to help people make their lives amazing. With more than 10 years of experience in western and homeopathic medicine and some adversity in her own life story, Torey makes self-care and wellness practices the first step with all her clientele. She believes that if you don’t feel well, you can’t live well. She then adds a dose of “you can do anything you put your mind to” and gives them simple steps to tick away at their wild adventurous amazing life goals. She currently resides in Golden, Co and continues to reinvent herself and her role in the world, while doing her best to raise two hopeful, curious, kind and adventurous humans.
