In this episode of the Swiss Money Secrets podcast, we uncover one of Switzerland's most fascinating and often misunderstood tax regimes for residency: Swiss Lump Sum Taxation. This unique system allows qualifying non-Swiss nationals to pay taxes based on their annual living expenses rather than their worldwide income or assets and obtain Swiss residency, creating opportunities for predictability, privacy, and full enjoyment of the nation of Switzerland.We break down how the system works, who qualifies, and why it is attractive for retirees, global entrepreneurs, and internationally mobile families looking to immigrate to Switzerland. You'll also discover how lump sum taxation is calculated, the key differences between Swiss cantons, and why careful planning with experienced advisors is essential to avoid unexpected pitfalls.While WHVP does not provide relocation services or offer tax advice, understanding this tax framework is crucial for anyone considering Switzerland as a place to live. If you are considering international mobility and learning what your options might be, this episode sheds light on how Swiss Lump Sum Taxation could fit into your broader financial future.00:00 Intro 00:30 Switzerland's US Tariff Challenges03:27 Introduction To Cedric Miehle 05:36 Lump Sum Taxation In Switzerland10:26 How It Works21:20 What Is The Process Of Obtaining It27:49 Guidelines for Lump Sum Taxation34:59 Final Thought 35:59 Outro Learn more about Cedric Miehle here: https://www.domenig.law/en/team/cedric-miehleAbout WHVP: WHVP is an independent asset manager, specializing in managing the funds of private clients.

Das große Sommer-Interview ohne Störungen am Bundestag: „Selbst mein eigener Einsatz als Staatsfeind hat noch nicht gereicht”, lacht Rolf B. Pieper. Aber natürlich geht es in diesem Interview vor allem um die politischen und wirtschaftlichen Themen. 100 Tage Friedrich Merz als Kanzler - ein Fazit? „Es ist enttäuschend, was bisher geleistet wurde. Wir haben eine Szene rund um die Ukraine, die sich in den USA überwiegend abspielt. Es lenkt natürlich schön von unseren Problemen ab. Unsere Probleme sind noch nicht angegangen worden. Wir sehen Rezession, wir vernichten Arbeitsplätze. Ich habe auf eine Wende gehofft. Meine Hoffnung ist tot. Das fing schon bei Frau Merkel an, die späte Rache von Erich Honecker. Die Ränder werden immer stärker. Wie soll denn bei der nächsten Wahl eine Regierung entstehen? Durch die Brandmauer zur AfD müsste ja dann die Linke in der Bundesregierung sein. Das wäre komplett der Untergang", macht der CEO der TRI Concept AG aus Liechtenstein deutlich. Der Investment- und Finanzmarktexperte über Vizekanzler Lars Klingbeil (SPD), der den Haushalt durch Abgaben auf hohe Vermögen sanieren will: „Ich denke es wird uns alle treffen. Wo soll sonst das Geld herkommen. Diese Vollkasko-Mentalität, wir lassen jeden rein und wir unterstützen jeden - das kann so nicht mehr funktionieren. Wir fahren Deutschland gegen die Wand. Und die Enteignungsszenarien werden kommen." Worauf müssen wir uns einstellen? Wie kann man jetzt das Vermögen noch Richtung anlegen?

In this episode of The Swiss View, Jess Roberson and Urs Vrijhof-Droese unpack the latest signals on inflation coming from the private sector—and what they mean for investors worldwide. The conversation explores global currency trends, shifting investment markets, and the health of major economies, all against the backdrop of the U.S. imposing steep tariffs on Swiss imports. From the resilience of Switzerland's economy to the challenges facing small businesses in the U.S., Jess and Urs share their insights on how these developments may reshape global opportunities and why diversification remains key in navigating today's uncertainty.Contact WHVP

In this insightful episode, we explore the foundations of cross-border financial planning, designed specifically for Americans. Whether you're considering living overseas, investing internationally, or planning to retire abroad, understanding how to navigate complex financial landscapes across borders is essential. We dive into what cross-border financial planning really means—managing income, assets, and obligations that span multiple countries—and why it's crucial for maintaining compliance, minimizing tax liabilities, and protecting your wealth.We're joined by special guest John McNertney, founder and owner of Green Ocean Global Advisors, who brings deep expertise in helping Americans manage their finances across borders. John shares real-world insights on avoiding common pitfalls, understanding regulatory requirements, and building a solid, globally integrated financial strategy tailored to individual goals.You'll learn who needs cross-border financial planning, from U.S. citizens living abroad, international entrepreneurs, and Americans married to foreign nationals. We also highlight common and costly mistakes such as failing to report foreign accounts under FBAR and FATCA, investing in non-compliant foreign funds like PFICs, and overlooking estate planning conflicts between legal systems. For those investing offshore, we discuss how to achieve global diversification while staying aligned with U.S. regulations. If you're considering retiring outside the U.S., we cover key factors like local healthcare access, currency management, and how to handle U.S.-based retirement accounts from abroad. Finally, we walk through the first steps toward building a cross-border financial plan—setting clear goals, taking stock of international assets and obligations, and working with professionals who understand both U.S. and foreign financial systems.00:00 Intro00:30 Switzerland's Interest Rate Decision 03:27 Introduction To John McNertney & Green Ocean Global Advisors 06:36 Cross-Border Financial Planning vs. U.S. Financial Planning 08:26 What Is A Cross-Border Financial Plan11:02 Mistakes To Avoid 18:37 Make Sure You Have The Right Partners25:46 Opening An American Mind to International Investing33:33 Initial Steps Of A Financial Plan To Retire Overseas39:54 Final Thought40:52 Outro Webinar with John McNertney, Ryan Ahrens, and Jess Roberson: https://youtu.be/tHl9ZvvczHU?si=GmYFSVEb0tScxTGmLearn more about Green Ocean Global Advisors: https://www.greenoceanglobal.net/Find Green Ocean Global Advisors on YouTube: @greenoceanglobaladvisorsConnect with John McNertney on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mcnertney-cfp%C2%AE-4b14a71/About WHVP: WHVP is an independent asset manager, specializing in managing the funds of private clients.

Through most of history, monarchs wielded unlimited political and military power, while their Queens and consorts were in charge of producing heirs and ruling the hearts of the people. Since the fall of feudalism, the 10 remaining hereditary monarchs of Europe have lost their unchecked authority.

Let's meet the Queens consort of Belgium, The Netherlands, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and the United Kingdom, the Grand duchess of Luxembourg, and the Princess of Monaco.

Son élection à la présidence polonaise en juin 2025 a sonné comme un coup de tonnerre pour les progressistes et les féministes. L'historien Karol Nawrocki est un ultra-conservateur proche de Trump qui ne cache pas son opposition à l'avortement.   Dans un pays qui a déjà une des législations les plus restrictives du continent sur la question, tous les espoirs d'une libéralisation se sont donc envolés. Le président continuera à bloquer toute avancée souhaitée par le gouvernement de centre droit de Donald Tusk. Mais les militantes polonaises n'ont pas pourtant baissé les bras... Adrien Sarlat est allé les rencontrer à Varsovie.      La chronique d'Entr sur l'avortement dans les micro-États en Europe Et parmi les derniers bastions anti-avortement en Europe, on trouve aujourd'hui les micro-États comme Andorre, le Liechtenstein, mais aussi Monaco. Jade Briend Guy, journaliste à la rédaction d'Entr qui parle d'Europe aux jeunes sur les réseaux sociaux a enquêté.=> La vidéo «Pourquoi Monaco n'a toujours pas légalisé l'avortement».     Jeunes et cybercriminalité  La cybercriminalité en hausse. Plus de 40% en France sur la période 2019-2023. Multi-équipés et ultra-connectés, les jeunes sont une cible de choix, ils sont aussi parfois du côté des hackers. Le mois dernier (juin 2025), les meilleurs experts mondiaux étaient réunis au Conseil de l'Europe pour débattre du sujet et tenter de trouver des solutions. Reportage à Strasbourg signé Wyloen Munhoz Boilot.     Le tueur de Graz en Autriche obsédé par Columbine Et en Autriche, on n'en finit pas de tirer les conséquences de la tuerie du 10 juin dernier. À Graz, un jeune homme avait ouvert le feu dans un lycée, tuant 9 élèves et une enseignante. Le gouvernement veut désormais légiférer sur l'accès aux réseaux sociaux, car il est désormais clair que l'assaillant était devenu obsédé sur les réseaux sociaux par la tuerie américaine de Columbine. À Vienne, Céline Béal.

Mais les militantes polonaises n'ont pas pourtant baissé les bras... Adrien Sarlat est allé les rencontrer à Varsovie.      La chronique d'Entr sur l'avortement dans les micro-États en Europe Et parmi les derniers bastions anti-avortement en Europe, on trouve aujourd'hui les micro-États comme Andorre, le Liechtenstein, mais aussi Monaco. Jade Briend Guy, journaliste à la rédaction d'Entr qui parle d'Europe aux jeunes sur les réseaux sociaux a enquêté.=> La vidéo «Pourquoi Monaco n'a toujours pas légalisé l'avortement».     Jeunes et cybercriminalité  La cybercriminalité en hausse. Plus de 40% en France sur la période 2019-2023. Multi-équipés et ultra-connectés, les jeunes sont une cible de choix, ils sont aussi parfois du côté des hackers. Le mois dernier (juin 2025), les meilleurs experts mondiaux étaient réunis au Conseil de l'Europe pour débattre du sujet et tenter de trouver des solutions. Reportage à Strasbourg signé Wyloen Munhoz Boilot.     Le tueur de Graz en Autriche obsédé par Columbine Et en Autriche, on n'en finit pas de tirer les conséquences de la tuerie du 10 juin dernier. À Graz, un jeune homme avait ouvert le feu dans un lycée, tuant 9 élèves et une enseignante. Le gouvernement veut désormais légiférer sur l'accès aux réseaux sociaux, car il est désormais clair que l'assaillant était devenu obsédé sur les réseaux sociaux par la tuerie américaine de Columbine. À Vienne, Céline Béal.  

It's time for the way-too-early Conference League 2025-26 preview! Except it really isn't too early - the 1st qualifying rounds start THIS WEEK if you can believe it. But we're starting off with the 5 "big league" clubs who start their journey in the playoff qualifying round (aka the final step before the League Phase): Nottingham Forest, Rayo Vallecano, Mainz, Strasbourg, and of course, the Conference League house band - Fiorentina. We take a look at what each club has to offer on and off the pitch, why we're so excited to watch them, and what order they should be ranked as tournament contenders. Then, we move on to some lesser known participants from all over the continent - and some off of it. We take pitstops in Liechtenstein, Gibraltar, Kosovo, the Faroe Islands, and the Azores, as we introduce (or reintroduce) some of our favorite stories from the upcoming qualifying rounds and debate which minnows could make a Cinderella run at the League Phase! Cheers Marc Schneider!

Durante la cumbre semestral que se lleva a cabo en Buenos Aires, el Mercosur anunció que concluyó las negociaciones para un acuerdo con la Asociación Europea de Libre Comercio que incluye a Noruega, Suiza, Islandia y Liechtenstein. Las negociaciones empezaron en 2017, pero no fue sino hasta este miércoles que el Mercosur y la Asociación Europea de Libre Comercio (EFTA) dieron luz verde al acuerdo que permitirá la exportación e importación de bienes y servicios en una zona con casi 300 millones de personas. Energía renovable Henrique Choer Moraes, diplomático que representa a Brasil en las negociaciones del Mercosur, destacó la variedad de este acuerdo que va desde la agricultura hasta las centrales de datos. “Es muy amplio ese abanico, abarcando vinos, por ejemplo, pasando por la industria, pero también hay un compromiso muy importante que alcanzamos con la EFTA: nosotros introducimos este compromiso de que la exportación de servicios digitales está supeditada al hecho de que la matriz energética del país que exporta sea del 67% por lo menos de fuentes de energía renovable”, explica Henrique Choer Moraes. Es “un ejemplo para que otros países imiten, porque desde nuestro punto de vista, esto es un ejemplo concreto de algo que los europeos hablan mucho pero no hacen tanto como a nosotros nos gustaría, y es la interfase entre comercio y desarrollo sostenible. Estamos hablando aquí de comercio, de servicios de una forma sostenible”, recalca. A la espera de la Unión Europea La Unión Europea ha sido todo un desafío para los socios del Mercosur, conformado por Argentina, Brasil, Paraguay, Uruguay y Bolivia: en diciembre pasado y tras 25 años de negociaciones, firmaron un acuerdo que sigue sin ser ratificado y enfrenta una fuerte oposición de Francia. El representante de Brasil se muestra sin embargo optimista: “No sería la primera vez en Europa que un acuerdo va a ser sometido a un debate muy acalorado. Pero a pesar de todo eso, estamos confiados porque el contexto global ayuda cada vez más a confirmar la importancia, no solo económica pero estratégica, de que Europa pueda avanzar rumbo a la ratificación del acuerdo con Mercosur. El anuncio del acuerdo con EFTA tendrá también algún impacto en los debates, porque Europa está viendo que el Mercosur no está parado”, estima. Actualmente el Mercosur está en conversaciones comerciales con Emiratos Árabes Unidos y según el diplomático brasileño, Canadá y Japón son algunos de los futuros objetivos.

Fredrik snackar med Svante Richter som berättar om sitt projekt Maps.black - det enklaste sättet att självhosta och använda fria och öppna kartor. Vore det inte fint att kunna ha en komplett världskarta som man lätt kunde lägga på och använda från ett SD-kort? Men, hur lyckas man med det? Hur sätter man ihop en kartlösning? Och vad behöver man göra för att lyckas hosta den? Oväntat lite, är svaret! (Svantes servrar får däremot jobba en del för att sätta ihop kartpaketen när en ny version ska bakas.)

In this powerful episode, adventurer and mindset coach Sophie Storm Roberts joins The Longest Day Podcast to share the story of her most grueling day on the Alpine Coast to Coast Challenge—cycling 240km across two countries and summiting the highest mountains in each. Sophie reflects on her transformation from startup executive to endurance athlete and author, and how fear, self-belief, and courage shaped her journey. Listeners will walk away inspired to take bold steps in their own lives—one pedal stroke, one mantra, one act of courage at a time.Key Points:Sophie cycled through the 8 Alpine countries, summiting their highest peaks. Her longest day included 240km across Austria and Liechtenstein.Inspired by previous endurance challenges, Sophie left a tech startup role to pursue adventure full-time.She embarked alone to test and strengthen her own inner resources, building what she calls an “inner champion.”Sophie uses tools like mantras, playlists, snacks, and internal reframing to push through pain and fatigue.Inspired by nature, Sophie embraces adaptability and flow, likening her mindset to the resilience and persistence of water.Her upcoming book tackles how we can transform fear into fuel, encouraging everyday acts of courage over perfection.Sophie emphasises the importance of noticing joy and celebrating small wins along the way—not just focusing on big milestones.“Instead of phoning a friend, phone your courage. Phone your determination. Phone your heart. Phone your drive.”Resources:TEDx Talk by Sophie Storm Roberts“The Man in the Arena” quote by Theodore RooseveltYou can find Sophie at:Website: https://www.challengesophie.com LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/sophiestormroberts Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/challengesophie/ X: https://x.com/ChallengeSophie Find Leah Brown FRSA here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leah-brown-frsa-b71b0844/ and @leahtalks_ on Instagram, TikTok and X.If Sophie's story lit a spark in you, share this episode with someone who needs a reminder that courage is a muscle.

„Wir haben durch die geopolitischen Auseinandersetzungen eine total veränderte Lage. Anleger brauchen eine Resilienz gegen diese Nachrichten und gegen den Verschuldungsstrudel. Die Menschen suchen immer mehr den sicheren Hafen bei all den politischen und kriegerischen Auseinandersetzungen und einem Handelskrieg mit Zöllen - und trotzdem produzieren die USA 1.000 Millionäre pro Monat. Denn es gibt Anlageklassen, bei denen man ruhig schlafen kann und die sehe ich im Sachwertbereich”, so gut Rolf B. Pieper. Der Finanzmarktexperte und CEO der TRI Concept AG aus Liechtenstein schaut auch wieder auf die deutsche Politik: „In vielen Köpfen sind Enteignungsszenarien vorgezeichnet - gerade bei der neuen Regierung und dem Kanzler-Darsteller Merz. Klingbeil hat es jetzt auch wieder gesagt: Verschuldung wird kommen. Wie kann ich mich dem als Anleger entziehen und eine stressfreie Anlagestratege finden? Man muss digitale Fingerabdrücke verhindern!" Welche Sachwerte sind für Anleger jetzt interessant? Die vielen Fragen der Anleger werden dieses Jahr auf dem Kongress von Rolf Pieper am 26. und 27. September 2025 bei Würzburg beantwortet. Alle Infos und Termine im Interview und auf http://rolf-pieper.com

Tout a commencé à bord du Princesse Marie-Astrid, un bateau ancré dans la Moselle, à Schengen, petite ville luxembourgeoise située à la frontière avec la France et l'Allemagne. Lieu symbolique pour la signature, le 14 juin 1985, d'un accord de libre circulation entre la France, l'Allemagne (de l'Ouest, à l'époque), la Belgique, les Pays-Bas et le Luxembourg. L'accord de Schengen introduit donc la fin des frontières intérieures et va jouer un rôle déterminant dans la construction européenne. Quarante ans plus tard, l'espace Schengen compte désormais 29 membres : 25 des 27 pays de l'Union européenne et quatre États associés (Norvège, Suisse, Islande, Liechtenstein). Plus de 400 millions de citoyens peuvent, théoriquement, circuler librement, pour le travail ou le tourisme, sans contrôle systématique aux frontières. Mais les défis sécuritaires et migratoires préoccupent de plus en plus de pays, à tel point que l'essence même d'une telle organisation est sans cesse questionnée. Invitées : Stéfanie Buzmaniuk, directrice de recherche, chargée du développement à la Fondation Robert-Schuman Marie-Laure Basilien-Gainche, professeure de droit public à l'Université Jean-Moulin-Lyon-III, membre de l'Institut Convergences Migrations.

"How can that be heavy when you have such pride and desire in the game you love."If Craig Bellamy was feeling any pressure before the two World Cup qualifiers, he wasn't showing it. In conversation with Carl Roberts, he admitted to having a "restless night" before Friday's home game with group minnows Liechtenstein, but wasn't "weighed down" by the task ahead. And the excitement would only build, he said, as attention would then switch to the far tougher trip to face group favourites Belgium on Monday.

Cardiff City's 18-year-old right-back Ronan Kpakio was the surprise name in Wales' squad for the World Cup qualifiers against Liechtenstein and Belgium at the beginning of next week. Manager Craig Bellamy didn't hold back in his praise for Kpakio, who has only six senior appearances to his name, during the media conference in Cardiff to announce the squad. Carl and Daf were in attendance at St Fagans National Museum of History as Bellamy enthused about the qualify of other youngsters also coming through the ranks, and welcomed the return of the influential pair of Ethan Ampadu and Harry Wilson.

I have had the pleasure of conversing with many people on Unstoppable Mindset who clearly are unstoppable by any standard. However, few measure up to the standard set by our guest this time, Katrin J. Yuan.

For example, I asked her questions such as “what is the worst piece of advice you ever have received?”. Answer, “stay as you are, don't grow”. There are several more such questions we discuss. I think you will find our conversation satisfying and well worth your time.   As a final note, this episode is being released around the same time Katrin's latest book is being published. I am anxious to hear what you think about our conversation and Katrin's new book.       About the Guest:   Katrin J. Yuan Boardmember | CEO Swiss Future Institute | Chair AI Future Council Katrin J.

I'm excited to be here with you a bit about myself.   Michael Hingson ** 02:32 Yes, please, you and growing up and all all the scandalous things you that you don't want anyone to know. No, go ahead. We we're here to hear what you have to say.   Katrin J Yuan ** 02:43 My cultural background is, I'm looking Asian, grown up in Europe and Germany, and then later for my studies in Switzerland, in the French part of Switzerland. And now I'm being in here in Zurich. My background is Mba, it finance. I started with a corporate then in tech consulting. I was heading eight departments in my lab. Last corporate position there of head it head data. Now to keep it simple and short, I consider myself as an edutainer, community builder and a connector, connecting the dots between data, tech and people. I do it on a strategic level as a six time board member, and I do it on an operational level for the Swiss future Institute for four universities, being a lecturer and sharing knowledge fun and connecting with people in various ways.   Michael Hingson ** 03:44 Well, what? What got you started down the road of being very deeply involved with tech? I mean, I assume that that wasn't a decision that just happened overnight, that growing up, something must have led you to decide that you wanted to go that way.   Katrin J Yuan ** 03:58 It's a mixture curiosity, excitement, I want to know, and that started with me as a kid, how things work, what's the functionality? And I like to test do things differently and do it myself before reading how it should be done. What's the way it should be done.   Michael Hingson ** 04:21 So, yeah, yeah, I find reading is is a very helpful thing. Reading instruction manuals and all that is very helpful. But at the same time, there isn't necessarily all the information that a curious mind wants, so I appreciate what you're saying.   Katrin J Yuan ** 04:36 Yeah, totally. There are so many more things. Once you start, it's like one layer after the other. I like to take the layers, lip by layer, to go to a core, and I'm I don't avoid asking questions, because I really like to understand how things work.   Michael Hingson ** 04:55 Yeah, yeah. It's a lot more fun. And. And hopefully you get answers. I think a lot of times, people who are very technically involved in one thing or another, when you ask them questions, all too often, they assume, well, this person doesn't have the technical expertise that I do, so I don't want to give a very complicated answer, and that's all lovely, except that it doesn't answer the question that people like you, and frankly I have, which is, how do things work? Why do they work? Much less? Where do we take them from here? Right?   Katrin J Yuan ** 05:31 Absolutely, and breaking down complexity rather simplifying things, and tell us in an easy way you would maybe tell kids, your neighbors and non tech persons, and at the end of the day, it's the question, What's in for you? What is this for? And what's the value and how you can apply it in your everyday life? Yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 05:57 I grew up, of course, being blind, and encountered a lot of people who were and are curious about blind people. The problem is I usually have an assumption also, that if you're blind, you can't do the same things that sighted people can do, and that's usually the biggest barrier that I find we have to break through, that I have to break through, because, in reality, blindness isn't the issue, it's people's perceptions. And so that's why I mentioned the whole idea that people often underrate people who ask a lot of questions, and the result is that that it takes a while to get them comfortable enough to understand we really do want to know when we really do want you to give us good technical information that we can process and move forward with   Katrin J Yuan ** 06:47 exactly normally, in a room full of board members, managers, you call it, you name it, CEOs, investors, usually someone or even the majority, is very thankful that finally somebody asks also, dare to ask the simple questions to find a solution. And it's not only the what, but I find it interesting also the how you solve it, and to see and do things in a different way, from a different, diverse perspective. This is very valuable for those seeing and for those seeing in a different way or not seeing and solving it in your own very unique way, and   Michael Hingson ** 07:33 and that's part of the real issue, of course, is that looking at things from different points of view is always so valuable, isn't it? Absolutely,   Katrin J Yuan ** 07:42 this is why I also go for diversity in tech leadership boards. Yeah, because for me, I like to say it's no charity case, but business case,   Michael Hingson ** 07:57 yeah. Well, so you, you've, in a sense, always been interested in tech, and that I can appreciate, and that makes a lot of sense, because that's where a lot of growth and a lot of things are happening. What? So you went to school, you went to college, you got a master's degree, right?   Katrin J Yuan ** 08:17 Yes, correct.   Michael Hingson ** 08:20 And so what was then your first job that you ended up having in the tech world? I   Katrin J Yuan ** 08:27 was in the IT ICT for Vodafone in a country this last station was with Northern Cyprus. For me, very exciting. Yeah, to jump in different roles, also in different areas, seeing the world sponsored by a large company here in Europe. And that was very exciting for me to jump into white, into it and learn quickly. I wanted to have this knowledge accelerated and very pragmatic to see many countries, cultures, and also diverse people in many, many means, from language to culture to age to many, many different backgrounds.   Michael Hingson ** 09:09 So from a technology standpoint, how is Vodafone doing today? I know you've moved on from that, but you know, how is it? How is it doing today? Or is it I haven't I've heard of Vodafone, but I haven't kept up with it. That   Katrin J Yuan ** 09:22 was my very first chapter. So yes, indeed, I moved on, staying in the tech sector, but now I am completely here in Switzerland for another chapter,   Michael Hingson ** 09:35 and Vodafone is still a very sizable and ongoing company. It   Katrin J Yuan ** 09:39 is not in Switzerland, but yes, still in Europe, with headquarter, UK, in Germany and so on. Definitely. Yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 09:47 I'm, I'm familiar with it. And I was thinking Germany, although I hadn't thought about the UK, but that makes, makes some sense. So you, you obviously worked to. Learn a lot and absorb a lot of information. And I like the things that that you're talking about. I think people who are really curious, and who work at being curious aren't just curious about one thing and you talked about, you're curious about the technology and all the things that you could learn, but you are also very interested in the cultures, and I think that that is and the whole environment, and I think that is so important to be able to do what, what kinds of things, if you if you will, did you find interesting about the different cultures, or what kind of commonalities Did you find across different cultures? Because you, you had the experience to to be able to be involved with several so that must have been a pretty fascinating journey.   Katrin J Yuan ** 10:45 Yeah, CEO of a Swiss future Institute, and as university lecturer of four universities in Germany, as well as in Switzerland, mostly about AI data analytics. And also as board member, I have several demanding roles started already in young years. So one of the questions I hear often is, how did you make it, and how is the combination? And here my answer is, start early discipline focus. I'm highly self motivated curiosity, as mentioned earlier in the combination, and I did not expect success to come early. I expected to endure pain, hard work and to go forward and a mixture of discipline, hard work, step by step, and also to overcome challenges.   Michael Hingson ** 11:42 Did you find it to be a challenge with any of the cultures that you worked within, to to be able to be curious and to be able to move forward? Or were you pretty much welcomed across the board?   Katrin J Yuan ** 11:57 It's a mixture. It started with the obvious, the language. So when I was, for instance, on Northern Cyprus, that's the Turkish speaking part, not the Greek part, which is in the EU I accepted the opportunity given by the company at that time to learn Turkish. That was amazing for me. Yeah, as I felt like, if I'm the guest, the least I can do is adapt and giving, showing my respect and openness towards a new culture. And for me, culture starts with a language. With language you reach not only the people, but you really understand as there are so many, and those of you who speak more than one language, you might have find it especially comparing different expressions emotions. Typical expressions in different languages is not only translating, it's really understanding those people. Yeah, and that for me, definitely super exciting. It was a challenge, but a very welcome one, embracing that challenge, and for me, it was like, Hey, let's do an experiment. Being an adult, learning a complete new language, not like English, German, French, and both usually relatively close to each other, so related ones, but a completely new such as Turkish. So nobody spoke Turkish in my friend's neighborhood, closer family as we are, we are not. But I thought that, hey, let's simply start. And I started by learning eight, eight hours per week, so really intense, including the Saturday. So it was only doable that way, to give it a serious try to bridge and be open towards different cultures.   Michael Hingson ** 13:53 Well, the other part about it is, in a sense, it sounds like you adopted the premise or the idea that you didn't really have a choice because you lived there, or at least, that's a great way to motivate and so you you spent the time to learn the language. Did you become pretty fluent in Turkish? Then I   Katrin J Yuan ** 14:13 was there like five months, the first three months, it was rather a doing pain and hard work without having any success. So I didn't, didn't get it. I didn't understand anything, though I had every week the eight hours of Turkish, and it took three months, and that's super interesting for me to perceive like I love experiments, and I love experimenting, also with myself included, that is, it's not, it seems to be not linear, but rather jumping. So you have all the investments in the first where you don't see any immediate effect. Well, after the first three months, there was a jump. Um, and I remember clearly the first moment where I got it, where I understood something, and later on learning intensely, even understood some sort of jokes and etc. And there the meetings were all in Turkish. So it really helped to adapt to that one and get what they say,   Michael Hingson ** 15:20 so until you got to the point where you could sort of understand the language, how did, how did you function? Did you have somebody who interpreted or how did that work?   Katrin J Yuan ** 15:30 Well, they speak English as well, and of course, they adapted to me, such as to the other experts being there as well.   Michael Hingson ** 15:39 Yeah. Did? Did you find, though, that once you started having some effective communication in the language that that they liked that and that that made you more accepted? They   Katrin J Yuan ** 15:52 were surprised, because at that time, I was the only one from from the experts manager sent there and really accepted the whole education package for like, okay, it's free, it's education. Let's definitely accept it and give it a serious try, having the eight hours per week. So several were quite surprised that I did it and that I'm interested in learning a new language as a as an adult, where you could have said, No, that's, that's enough. Let's, let's all stay in our usual, the simple, the simplest way, which is, let's keep it and do it all in English, what we already can speak.   Michael Hingson ** 16:38 But they had to feel more at home when you started speaking their language a little bit. I remember in college, I took a year of Japanese. It just seemed fascinating, and I like to listen to short wave. I'm a ham radio operator, so I oftentimes would tune across stations, and I would find radio Japan and listen to broadcasts, and then I took a year, and I've been to Japan twice as a speaker, talking about the World Trade Center and so on. And although I didn't become in any way fluent with the language, I was able to pick up enough words, especially after having been there for a few days, that I could at least know was what's going on. So I appreciate exactly what you're saying. It makes it a whole lot more fun when people do relate to you. Which is, which is so cool. So, you know, I think that's that's a good thing. Where did you go after Cyprus?   Katrin J Yuan ** 17:34 I went back to Switzerland. Ah, familiar language, yeah, from the French and to the German speaking part in Switzerland, also with French, it's more or less the same. I learned a large part, also per University, and frankly, per TV. Watching television, if you first started, didn't get any of those jokes, yeah, I felt quite stupid. And then one day, you really break the wall, and then it's going all the way up, and you simply get it. You live it. You are widened, and you understand the culture and those people, and they will feel that you are bracing it, that you are not only polite or only there for a temporary of time, and then you're you're gone. Yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 18:22 you you demonstrate that you are really interested in them and curious about them, as I said, and that tends to definitely make you more relatable and make you more appreciated by the places where you are. So I'd like to go ahead and continue in, you know, obviously learning about you and so on. And I know we talked a little bit about other places where you've been and so on, but you've got, you've got a lot that you have done. So you work a lot with CEOs. You work a lot with investors and board members, and a lot of these people have a lot of different kinds of personalities. So what is your perception of people? What was your perception of working with all those people? And how do you deal with all of that going forward? Because everybody's got their own thoughts,   Katrin J Yuan ** 19:21 indeed, and in that context, what is normal? How do you perceive and how are you perceived by others? That was a question which raised my curiosity. Yeah, by time, it was not clear from the beginning, and for me, I found my answer in what is normal. It's super relative for only what you perceive and know. Got to know taught by your parents as a kid. And for me, looking looking Asian, yeah, looking different, yeah, as. A woman young, you're looking different. And that combination in Switzerland, it's yeah, it weighs some questions, and got me reflecting upon that question, yes, and this all how you deal and see and apply that difference and make that difference to be a value for yourself and for others. You bring   Michael Hingson ** 20:25 up an interesting point, though. You talk about what is normal, and so what is normal? How do you deal with that?   Katrin J Yuan ** 20:33 Normal is what you think is normal. There's no real normal, the so called norms. Does it fit to you, or you will make them fit to you, and you are unique in that setup you know, like what is normal considering beauty standards, it is what you use to know, based on culture, based on your direct environment, by based by your family, what you see is what you get, yeah. And based on some scientific stuff, like relatively high symmetric in in your face, but not too much asymmetric, yeah, just the right mixture, yeah. And so I learned to define, instead of being defined all the time, to define myself what is normal to me, to me, and to be very aware that the normal is quite relative my perception. Did   Michael Hingson ** 21:33 you find that there were times that you had to sort of change your view of what was normal because of circumstances, does that make sense?   Katrin J Yuan ** 21:43 Yeah, totally, and I respect it so much. Also, with your fantastic story yourself, Michael, where I can only say, Chapo, how, how you make your way all the way up. And it's, it's more than respectful. I have you have my admiration for that one for me, it was definitely food traveling, seeing myself, not so much as a small kid, I perceived like, Hey, we are all normal. Yeah, there was no difference as a small kid. But latest for me, when you got a bit older as a kid, between, in between kid and becoming adult, also from the environment, raising questions of how you appear, whether you appear differently from kids and so on. Yeah, the question was brought to me, so I had to deal with it in the one or other way. And I learned it's, it is interesting if you are finding yourself. It's not a point that you know in black, white, okay, that's me, but it's rather walking the whole path with all the stones, Hicks and up and downs, becoming you in all its essence and normal it was defines you, and I like to challenge myself wherever, and all these bias everyone has naturally, it makes us humans. That's the way that I, at least challenge myself to open that quick few seconds box again, after the very first impression, which is built unconsciously, and and, and some, some good moments and valuable relationships appeared not from the first moment, but because I challenge it, and even if we didn't like, for example, each other from the first moment, but then we gave it another opportunity, and even friendships were built with a second and third glance. And this is why I invite you to think about your own normal and to find and define yourself, not letting it be a standard defined by others.   Michael Hingson ** 24:07 I have ever since September 11, I always hear people saying and I read and I reacted to it internally. We got to get back to normal. People hate getting out of their comfort zone oftentimes, and that's, in a sense, so very frustrating. But I kept hearing people say, after September 11, we got to get back to normal. And I finally realized that the reason that I didn't like that statement was, normal will never be the same again. We can't get back to normal because normal is going to be different, and if we try to get back to where we were, then the same thing is going to happen again. So we do need to analyze, investigate, explore and recognize when it's need to move on and find, if you will, for the moment, at least a new normal.   Katrin J Yuan ** 24:58 Absolutely, I'm. With you. What's normal for you? Michael,   Michael Hingson ** 25:04 yeah, what's normal for me isn't normal for you. I think what's normal for me today isn't what it used to be. So for me today, normal is I do get to travel and speak, but when I'm home, I have a dog and a cat. Normal change for me a couple of years ago when my wife passed away. So it was a matter of shifting and recognizing that I needed to shift, that the mindset couldn't be the same as it was pre November 12 of 2022 and so it is important to be able to adapt and move on. So I guess for me, normal, in one sense, is be open to change.   Katrin J Yuan ** 25:50 That's beautifully said. Be open to change.   Michael Hingson ** 25:55 Yeah, I think it's really important that we shouldn't get so locked in to something that we miss potential opportunities, that that change, or that adapting to different environments will bring us   Katrin J Yuan ** 26:10 totally and you yourself, give yourself all the opportunities you have to evolve over time you will not be Exactly and that's good the way it is the same person, yeah? Because environment change, all the factors change, and we humans are highly adaptive, yeah, this is underestimated by ourselves many times. Yeah, but we are, and we make the best out of the situation, and especially with regard to hard moments where really, really, really hard, and nobody likes them, while being in that moment, but looking back and being overcoming it afterwards looking back, I like to say, when do you really grow? It's in the hard times when you grow this is where you endure pain, but you'll be become better, bigger, more resilient afterwards, right?   Michael Hingson ** 27:13 Very, very much. So Well, in your case, growing up, working, being in all the different environments that that you have. Have you ever had an unexpected moment, a hard moment that you had to deal with? And what was that? And how did you? How did you deal with it?   Katrin J Yuan ** 27:29 Sure, just sharing one earlier moment. I had an accident. I was on my way to dancing course and all chilly fun made myself pretty on the day, thinking only on superficial, beautiful moments, partying and so on. And then it crashed on the road, and in a matter of seconds, life can be over. So I woke up in the hospital and the intensive care, that unit, where you only find the hard cases, was, yeah, were really not beautiful to look at. Yeah, I find myself. And I was like, that was definitely a very hard lessons I learned in early years. So I had to relearn everything, and had to look two weeks long at a white wall with an ugly picture on it, and I had plenty plenty of time to think about myself and the world and what, what the heck I should do with the remaining time, and also my perception of normal, of wishes, of expectations, of different perspectives, and my my expectation on life. Yeah. Well,   Michael Hingson ** 28:56 what was an ugly picture? Did you ever come to appreciate the picture?   Katrin J Yuan ** 28:59 It was still ugly after two weeks, just checking.   Michael Hingson ** 29:05 So though you, you chose not to let that become part of your normal, which is fine. I hear you well, you, but you, you adapted. And you, you move forward from that, and obviously you you learned more about yourself, which is really so cool that you chose to use that as a learning experience. And all too often, people tend not to do that. Again, we don't do a lot of self analysis, and tend to try to move on from those things. But, but you did which is, which is admirable by any standard. Well, one of the things that I'm curious about is that you have a fairly good social media followings, and I'm sure there are a lot of people who would ask this, what would you advise for people. Who want to build their brand. What did you learn along the way, and what would you advise people to do if they want to build their own brand and and grow? I've   Katrin J Yuan ** 30:07 over 60,000 views, which is not bad for a non celebrity and a simple officer, worker, academic worker, here in Switzerland, and I like to invite people to think, imagine you were a product. What are you standing for? And don't try to cover your weaknesses. It's a unique you as a combination of all of your science, I like to speak about the 360 degree you and starting, and I know statistically that a bit more women are a bit concerned about, hey, how much should I really give and and get over visibility, and is it still in a professional way, and I don't want to waste My time and so on. Somebody told me, and I find this idea very simple and good people talk about you either way. Also, if you leave a room, either you let it the way, in a passive way, so accepting it, or you decide one day, and this is what I did, actively influence it. So I like to, rather if I may have a choice, actively influence and have some take on my life, my decisions, my normal the doings, the happenings and the starts with a perception in our world. Allow me it is very simple. What you see is what you get. Yeah, so the visibility, if you can use it, especially here, now with all the social media channels, from LinkedIn to Insta to YouTube, what you have in place, use it systematically for your business, not as a I don't want to waste my time, and you don't need to open up to everything your private life. If you want to keep that, that's all good. You can just open up enough to build up your brand for business. Yeah, and for me, it's really, really going, definitely, we monetize and open up for business, and so that our clients in Switzerland, Liechtenstein and Germany and Austria, and the dark region we call it, find us in, yeah, and thankful for that   Michael Hingson ** 32:37 interesting and I like something that that you say, which is, you don't need to open up your private lives, we get too nosy, and we get too many people who put too many pieces of information about their private lives, and unfortunately, that's just not a productive thing to do, Although so many people do it in this country now. We're, we're seeing a number of athletes whose homes are being broken into. And you can trace the reason that it's even possible back to a lot of social media. They're, they're saying they're not going to be there, or in some cases, they can't necessarily avoid it. Doesn't need to be social media when you've got sports figures who are playing in games and all that, but we focus too much on private lives rather than real substance. And unfortunately, too many people, also, who are celebrities, want to talk about their private lives. And I, you know, I don't tend to think that is overly productive, but everybody has their own choices to make, right? So   Katrin J Yuan ** 33:45 everybody has their own choices to make. Yeah, I recommend, if you like, stay with them consistently so you feel comfortable. How much you open the door is starting ultimately with you. I like to say in that context, you are ultimately responsible for all the things you do, but also with all the things you don't do. Yeah, and that's totally fine, as long as it's it's very much and that it's something you will feel that's, that's about you, yeah, and social media and visibility, and the business side, the professional side of using your whether Employer Branding, your personal branding, all the stuff, this is controlled by you, how much you give. Of course, you can sense how much, depending on how much you give, how much will come back. And if you don't feel like posting all the time, also with 40 degree fever out of a bat. Don't do it. It might be not sensible in your case, and not giving you back the outcome, the impact, the real consequence and effects it has. Yes, totally.   Michael Hingson ** 34:55 Well, social media hasn't been with us all that long, and I think we're still. So really learning how to best be involved with social media. And of course, that's an individual choice that everyone has to make. But what Facebook is only 20 years old, for example. And so we're going to be learning about this, and we're going to be learning about the impact of social media for a long time to come, I suspect,   Katrin J Yuan ** 35:20 absolutely and nowadays, fusion. Everything merged on the next level with AI, the perception what you get is what you see really fake news is only the beginning in text, in visual speaking of pictures and in videos, which is nothing else than a row of visual pictures in moving so our generation and the next and the next, from alpha to Gen Z, X, Y over and bridging generations, we will have to learn how to deal with it responsibly, both being potentially one of the actors in So, being a creator, creating your own content, and on the other side, accepting seeing, resonating, interacting with other content. What is real, what is fake? How do you deal with it, critically and responsibly for business, for society, yeah? Because whenever you do something, somebody else will see it. And that's that sense every one of us is a role model. So your behavior is not ultimately only what you say, but also what you do. Yeah, measure me and what I do, not what I say, and yeah, and others will see you and observe and that will have an effect, if you want or not. And therefore I am for a responsible way, behaving, reflecting and carry that on, spreading that information. Yeah. It all starts with you, I   Michael Hingson ** 37:01 believe is all too important to recognize it's due and judged by what I do, not by what I say. I think that is so important and one of the biggest lessons that we can learn from social media or anything. And it's nothing new. It's just that now it is such more a visible kind of lesson that we need to learn, because it's all about actions, and they do speak a lot louder than words, whether we like to think so or not. Yeah,   Katrin J Yuan ** 37:30 totally. And you said it, Michael, it's nothing new. Yeah, it's not reinvented, but, yeah, it's all transparent, too much information flooded by all channels, all these voices and people, experts are not commenting, resonating, multiplied, copied, bringing to other dimensions, and it's so easy, yeah, the real ones and the other ones. Yeah, so it's upon you to deal with it responsibly, yeah,   Michael Hingson ** 38:00 well, you have been associated with a number of boards. You've dealt with lots of board members. You're the CEO of a company and so on. So I'm curious to get your thoughts on the whole concept of, how do we work to make boards and board members more inclusive and more diverse? Or how do we open boards up to perhaps different things that they haven't experienced before?   Katrin J Yuan ** 38:31 That's a very good one, which means a lot to me personally. I like to say it's not a charity case, but a fact matters, numbers, business case so simple. That is, if you have, let's say, 10 people, high personalities in one room, a decision is very, very easily made. If you all think, look, behave the same, with the same skills, background, experiences and cultural wise, definitely, you will come to one decision quickly. But is this ultimately the best decision of a company and for your future? And have you shared all these thoughts from a different perspective, from a different angle. This implies a certain way, also with efforts with some time are not only easy peasy, but once you challenge yourself, you really grow. You really grow and come to an ultimately better decision, worthwhile, a more valuable perspective, yeah, and thinking of something you have never fought yourself, but another fraction does, and ultimately, the other voice is not only one minority speaking of an easy example of one to nine makes 10. Yeah, but scientifically, we speak here about the 33% and more, so more than three four people in a room, it would make sense to really have a strong voice here, and not only the one exceptional voice, but really a discussion among diverse peers reaching to the ultimate outcome in the best interest of a company.   Michael Hingson ** 40:26 How do we get people to adopt that kind of mindset and expand boards though to make that happen? Because all too often, people are locked into their own way. Well, we want board members and we want people who think as we do, and we don't want to really change, which is getting back to what we talked about before, with normal   Katrin J Yuan ** 40:45 I'm definitely with you, Michael, and if we had one short sentence answer on that one, I would be the first to raise the hand give me that solution. It's very hard to force externally. It's it's, ultimately, the best way is if you really come to that and you you get convinced yourself by your own experience, by seeing observing, by being open minded enough to learn from others. Yeah, that is not with age, with success, with power, with hierarchy, you name it, with title, with salary, package that you find one day, okay, I learned enough. I'm successful enough, I'm rich enough, I can afford and do what I what I wish, means, and I I'm not interested, consciously or unconsciously, and having another, maybe challenging other view which threatens or challenges myself, or which makes it a little bit more uncomfortable, but for the ultimate sake of getting to a better result. So there's a science dimension, there's a psychological cultural dimension, and definitely that's an individual one, but I learned the greatest people, men and women, like the really successful ones, they are quite on the steep learning curve, wherever they stand. And the really good ones, they want to become even better. Now this is for knowledge, learning never ends, and this is also for openness, looking the ball is wound from the 360 degree perspective. And this is ultimately also, as I said at the beginning, the business case to know from science. Okay, if I go alone, I might get the point quite quickly. Or if everybody is a little copy of you, it makes it so easy, isn't it, but if you really challenge, go through this is where you bring yourself and the others and the whole team, and again, the value of your company and listed company, your innovation, your value of the ultimate company, much, much further than it was yesterday, and this is where maybe, how much can we afford, looking at business as competition, looking at the latest technology, all these and also over culture and over borders, yeah, how much can we afford to stay the way we Are because we were that successful and maybe also privileged the last 20 years. I doubt so. So this is, again, plenty of real facts, numbers, arguments. Look at the statistics. It's a clear business case where we go and the smartest one goes first and state an example by yourself. Go through it and then you experience it yourself, the value out of difference and diverse and true means by living it and allowing it in your own circle.   Michael Hingson ** 43:54 The question that sort of comes to mind, and it's hard one to really answer, I think, but if you're on a board with a very strong leader or very strong persons, and you see that they're not necessarily willing to deal with diversity or real inclusion. How do you help them understand the value of doing that and becoming more diverse or becoming more inclusive in the way they think, by   Katrin J Yuan ** 44:21 raising questions in a polite, respectful way, you can do a lot. Everything you do is better than doing nothing, simply accepting on and in a passive way. I think everything else is definitely worth to try, fail, try, do better and try in a row. Repetition is also something which is psychologically therefore we have all these repetition jingles and advertising to some, to some extent, very useful, effective. So if you again, may hear it, not maybe only from one person, but for more than the 33% and. And you might hear it from your best buddy, you might hear it from peers, but you one day come and accept at least question it yourself, yeah, raising that question and you really want to get better, as we said at the beginning. Michael beautifully said, accept change or change. What is normal, yeah. And we are highly adaptive, again, as humans. So allow yourself to grow. There are two ways, either or if, if you should ever meet somebody who is rather not that open to it. So there are two ways and which will show by time. Yeah. But one is, your people only like to change when change becomes necessary, versus where an event happens, yeah, a very hard event, and where you will have face tremendous consequences, so you must have a change, yeah, and it's painful, and the others before, out of being convinced, touching the question before, how much can we afford to stay the way we are like forever, just because it has been like this in the Last 20 years? And I rather invite change doesn't happen overnight. Yes, that's true, but continues and little ones rather the hard cut at the end and and rather from yourself, interior and and intrinsically motivated, rather than being forced only by outside. That's way better. And smart people, yeah, are open, listening, learning, and therefore, do some effort. Make some effort yourself. Normally, it pays back 10 times.   Michael Hingson ** 46:51 You know, one of the best quotes I've ever heard that I really like, and I think it really ties in here, comes from the person who was our 35th president, who's now passed away, Jimmy Carter. He once said we must adjust to changing times while holding to unwavering principles. And my point in bringing that up is that change doesn't need to be that you have to sacrifice Basic Life Principle. I think so all too often, we don't necessarily learn some of those life principles as well as we should, but change is a good thing, and we do need to adjust to change any times, and it doesn't mean that we have to sacrifice the basics of life that we've grown up with and that we Experience   Katrin J Yuan ** 47:37 beautifully said exactly, I totally agree and to every new year, the new year resolution, stop smoking, becoming more sportive, all of sudden, all these long lists of changes and wishes, potential achievement and potential failures. Scientifically, I'm a bit nerdy. From the person, yeah, for me, no, it is positive. Is it shows that, rather than going for the big, hard cut change, use all these small steps and allow yourself to make these small steps towards change and habits, this is also shown and proven. Habits do not come overnight. They are not accepted. Whether, yeah, it's getting early bird, becoming all of a sudden Early Bird, because, yeah, you want to belong to that 5am breakfast club or something, whatever it is, yeah, make a combination over time in small steps, and reward yourself also, if you make a small step towards change. Now that's that's where magic happens. So you keep it over 234, months, and there become a good habit over time. But   Michael Hingson ** 48:49 also keep in mind why you want to make the change. That is what you don't change just to change. You change because there's a reason, and it's important to understand whatever it is the reason for wanting to change   Katrin J Yuan ** 49:04 having a goal and visualize it as much as you can. It's a strong one. And ultimately, do it for yourself, not for your partner, not because of somebody else, expecting do it for yourself. Yeah, becoming healthier working with a certain amount of discipline towards your marathon, or whatever it is in your life situation, yeah, definitely. Because if you don't have a goal, don't expect to ever learn that would be a pure accident, and that's rather impossible, yeah. But having a goal, you dramatically enhance your probability to reaching that one step by step.   Michael Hingson ** 49:45 Yep, absolutely. So you know what? Let's take a minute and play a game, just for fun. If you were a song, which one would it be?   Katrin J Yuan ** 49:55 A classic one, up to a certain moment, I will be. Surprise and a mixture, rather to the more modern, maybe new, classic one and a Big Bang to the end,   Michael Hingson ** 50:11 you have a particular one in mind. As   Katrin J Yuan ** 50:13 I love playing piano myself. I have two pianos at home, and I like to play from notes, sheets. But also come, come make my own compositions. I have one in mind, which is rather my own composition, starting from the classic, from a known one, such as Chopin, but going into a rather the individual one the end, yeah, it's a mixture.   Michael Hingson ** 50:40 Well, you've you've obviously been around a lot and so on. What's the worst advice you ever received? Stay   Katrin J Yuan ** 50:47 the way you are and come back in five years. You're not ready yet. Well, I simply didn't accept it. I think you're ready when once you feel ready, and that's not you're too young for it, or you are not ready because these things are lacking. And get the first reference, and get the first ones who trust yourself, and start trusting yourself going the first part, whether it's the first leadership role, but it's the first investment role, whether it's a first board membership role, whether it's becoming you, following your dreams, making your own company become reality all these I am convinced, at the end of the day, you are the ultimate producer of your life. So what are you waiting for? For me, it was the accident. Wake wake up. Call for me, where I fought like, Okay, two weeks staring at that ugly wall with that picture that made me somehow aware of my time. So I somehow subjectively really accelerate. I always think like, Hey, I don't have enough time. Let's make and really use the time given. And so, yeah, it's all about you define yourself, rather than letting others to define I   Michael Hingson ** 52:06 think that's really the operative part. Define yourself. You're the only one who can really do that, and you're the only one who can know how well you're doing it. So I think you're absolutely right, and   Katrin J Yuan ** 52:18 nobody knows you better. Nobody should know you better than yourself, because you spend all your time you know all these ugly, weak and really strong, really beautiful sides of yourself. You spend all the time, your whole life, if you like it or not, with you. So some people, however passive or with regard to responsibility, yeah, I would like to, but somehow I'm waiting somebody else who pushes me, who will give me before me that ball in my way, who tell me or who give me this one recommendation I was waiting a long time for. No, it should be you. You know yourself the best way start making use out of it. Yeah, and   Michael Hingson ** 52:59 you should really work to make sure you know yourself better than other people do. It's it makes your life a whole lot better. If you can do that. Let me ask this, if you could go back in time, what would you do?   Katrin J Yuan ** 53:09 I started quite early, and I've had some thoughts about skills, about what I could do, what I what I'm good at, and what I wish. Yeah, all that, and at some point I didn't dare to speak out. I accepted a lot, and I was actually quite silent for a long time. And in private life, I'm rather introvert. When they see me on stage as a speaker, as a lecturer at universities and so on, people tend to think I'm extrovert, but in private life, I'm quite introvert, looking back, maybe starting even earlier in a stronger pace than a faster pace, being more aware and not covering and myself in silence, in good moments, whether it's a meeting or in a lesson, if you know a Good answer, speak out. If you know a good question, speak out. Dare to speak out for yourself and for others. This took me some time to find my voice, many years, but now I somehow finally found it for myself, and I dare to speak out for myself and for others to make a little bit of change and to make dare to make things differently. So it has ultimately your individual impact, your outcome, your own responsible line. So this, this is something I would have wished for me and also for others. Believe in yourself, trust in yourself, speak out earlier, whenever you see and there are plenty opportunities. I'd like to finish on that one. It's like a muscle. It's not born, but rather, you can train it also, but leadership skills, or that entrepreneurial skills or to the skills to deal with difficult situation as you overcame dramatically, wonderfully. My. Yeah, everyone might face over a lifetime, individually with his and hers. Face it, grow with it, become better and share it with others. So you push, pull and get good people on your side. And it's not only you suffering, but the ultimate outcome is so much more than the one moment which was hard. So believe in yourself.   Michael Hingson ** 55:28 What's one thing that you really wish people would see that maybe they don't beauty   Katrin J Yuan ** 55:33 and difference? Yeah, think about it in all its means a bit deeper, and I dearly invite you. It starts with the looks, yeah, with the automatic, subconsciously quickly done, judging others. It's so easy. And yes, we know it's only human, but knowing about yourself, it's about freedom, and with freedom comes responsibility, and also knowing about your limitations and knowing about your weak spots helps you really a lot to grow over time. Knowing you is not only knowing you how to do the small talk when the sunny weather everybody can be a leader or do something in a good means, yeah. It's very, very easy, but I talk about what stormy weather when it comes to really tough situations, when it comes to darkness and different means, then observe yourself. How do you behave? And many, even adults, they don't know, they can't say, or they totally freak out or give up, or some, some, some ways, challenge yourself. Where are your limits? Have you never tried your limits before? Because you didn't swim out into the sea and see how much you can really swim well, better try out. You will find out and get to know yourself in all your dimension. This is definitely something, the beauty and difference accepting. And this is not only finger pointing to others. It starts with you. Yeah, because you are different. I bet you are in some ways, if it's not looking Yeah, being too old, too young, too man, too woman, too beautiful, too ugly, yeah, too fat, too skinny, and all these are, it's maybe your language, your culture, your skills, your different background, maybe you're never the new one, and maybe you are different in all beautiful ways. It is possible to be different. So allowing difference, seeing even inviting it to your circle, is something of tremendous value once you open the door and you nurture it over time, I wish more people could see it and use it on positive impact in this world.   Michael Hingson ** 58:04 I have been a firm believer pretty much my whole life, that life's an adventure, and we have to embrace it. We have to live it to the fullest, and when we do, we're much better for it. One of the things that it does for us is it makes us, by the definition of this podcast, more unstoppable. What makes you unstoppable?   Katrin J Yuan ** 58:26 Life is an adventure. I completely agree with that sentence. I like to say, for me, it's also one day I saw it's like one big game, either you don't play, or I play and want to win it, war, whereas I think there can be several who be the winners, not only one. It's not a one man, one woman show, yeah, it's the team, it's the community, it's the effort. What makes you unstoppable? It starts for me, definitely with your mind, unstoppable mind in every means, not with your body, because the body, the physics is limited, yeah, but our mind, spirit, brain, and what you feel here in your heart and what you hear have in your head is this, ultimately, you, changing, evolving Over time, becoming you, and this makes me unstoppable, knowing and I'm on the way. It's not a point, but rather a long, long path from our phone, knowing me, the skills, knowing what you have overcome, Michael, over time, everything. Why shouldn't you achieve and do and get, ultimately, to your next goal, because you, looking back, have achieved so much already becoming stronger and stronger. If we go back to the simplified game, if it was a video game, you get to the next level. Not only getting to the next level, you're becoming more stronger. Yeah, this is becoming you and. Yeah, I believe that you are the ultimate producer. It starts in knowing, trusting, believing in you, speaking out and helping, not only yourself, but ultimately pulling, pushing others. As a community, we share many things which, when shared, becomes multiplied much, much more worth, such as visibility, value, knowledge, trust and community and connections, all these wonderful things different than a cake, if you share, it becomes more so I don't see you are alone. I see you're not an island. You're not alone. Come with us. Follow and grow with us on the journey becoming, ultimately you and you will be unstoppable   Michael Hingson ** 1:00:49 your way. And I think that's a great way to end this conversation, because I think that you cited it and said it so well and eloquently that reality is, people can be more unstoppable, but they they need to take the responsibility to make that happen, and if they do, they'll be better for it.
