In dieser Folge von Frauen in Führung spreche ich über ein Thema, das dein gesamtes Leben beeinflusst: Selbstvertrauen. Ich räume mit dem Mythos auf, dass es ausschließlich von deiner Kindheit abhängt, ob du dir und anderen vertrauen kannst. Studien zeigen: Gene spielen zwar eine Rolle, aber deine Erfahrungen, dein Umfeld und deine bewussten Entscheidungen machen den entscheidenden Unterschied. Ich teile auch sehr persönliche Einblicke in meine eigene Geschichte – von einem wackeligen Urvertrauen hin zu einem stabilen Selbstvertrauen, das ich mir Stück für Stück aufgebaut habe. Du erfährst: was Selbstvertrauen wirklich bedeutet, wie du deine „innere Wurzel“ stärkst, auch wenn deine Startbedingungen nicht perfekt waren, warum Erfahrungen und bewusste Erfolge dein Vertrauen nachhaltig aufbauen, und welche Reflexionsfragen dir helfen, dein Vertrauen in dich selbst zu vertiefen. Selbstvertrauen ist kein Geschenk – es ist ein Prozess, den du lernen kannst. Lass dich inspirieren, deine eigene Stärke (neu) zu entdecken!

In dieser Solo-Episode von Frauen in Führung spreche ich über ein Thema, das viele beschäftigt – bewusst oder unbewusst: „Ja sagen macht krank.“ Ich zeige dir anhand einer aktuellen Studie, wie dein Körper auf falsche Höflichkeit reagiert und warum du dich emotional und körperlich erschöpft fühlst, wenn du zu oft gegen dein Bauchgefühl handelst. Du erfährst: Was in deinem Körper passiert, wenn du Ja sagst, obwohl du Nein meinst Warum das Risiko für Burnout bei People Pleasern besonders hoch ist Was die Psychologie über Selbstverleugnung und das „wahre Ich“ sagt Wie du körperliche Stresssignale frühzeitig erkennst Warum ein ehrliches Nein oft mehr Verbindung schafft als ein falsches Ja Ich teile außerdem den Weg einer Coaching-Klientin, die gelernt hat, sich abzugrenzen – und dadurch endlich wieder mit sich selbst in Einklang ist.
Here I offer a guided meditation by offering the gift of lovingkindness in the form of phrases to loved ones.Then we move into a visualization where we radiate kindness energy out to drench ourselves in the warm energy of kindness. The longer we stay in the experience of lovingkindness, the more our neurons wire and fire together, allowing the passing state of kindness to become a permanent trait.Meditation can be challenging at times.

Joel Campe ist davon überzeugt: gesellschaftlicher Wandel ist nötig – und möglich! Joel Campe unterstützt Organisationen, Projekte und Initiativen darin, handlungsfähig zu werden und zu bleiben und sich wirksam für Veränderungen hin zu einer solidarischen, zukunftsfähigen Welt zu engagieren. Geleitet von dem Wunsch, nicht nur über Wandel zu reden sondern ihn aktiv in die Welt zu tragen ist Joel nach einem Ökolandbau-Studium im Jahr 2003 ins Ökodorf Sieben Linden gezogen. Joel hat hier Permakultur z.B. in einem Waldgarten, in der Siedlungsgestaltung und in Organisationsentwicklungsprozessen angewandt. In der langjährigen Mitarbeit an der Permakultur Akademie hat Joel gemeinsam mit Kolleg*innen mit Permakultur Design erfolgreiche Bildungsprogramme entwickelt. Joel bietet Supervision, Moderation und Prozessbegleitung sowie Coaching, Konfliktmoderation und Trainings an, geleitet von Werten wie Globaler Gerechtigkeit, Solidarität und echter Nachhaltigkeit. Gloria Kison ist eine preisgekrönte Designerin, die lieber aussteigt, als sich verbiegt und heute Stressresilienz unterrichtet. Sie hat eine Laufbahn eingeschlagen, die man nicht plant, sondern spürt. Schon im Kommunikationsdesign-Studium an der Hochschule RheinMain wurde ihr klar, dass sich in der Branche vieles eher um Ego als um Eco dreht. Bei Scholz & Volkmer, wo sie bereits als Studentin arbeitete, entwickelte sie 2014 ihre Bachelorarbeit: das Kiezkaufhaus – ein Online-Marktplatz für lokale Händler mit nachhaltiger Same-Day-Lieferung per E-Bike. Das vielfach ausgezeichnete Projekt (u.a. Red Dot Design Award, ADC, DDC, UX Design Award, Deutscher Digital Award) hätte ihr den Weg in große Agenturen geöffnet. Doch Gloria entschied sich 2015 bewusst für einen anderen Kurs: selbstständig, unabhängig, mit Fokus auf nachhaltige, sinnstiftende Gestaltung. Ihr Designansatz basiert auf den Prinzipien der Permakultur – ressourcenschonend, systemisch und nutzerfreundlich. Dieser Wandel führte sie nicht nur beruflich, sondern auch persönlich in eine neue Richtung – ins Ökodorf Sieben Linden, wo sie heute lebt, gestaltet und eine enkeltaugliche Zukunft mitformt. Thomas Jäger ist Vorstand des DDC, Permakultur-Enthusiast und Humanitarian Designer mit einem besonderen Fokus auf systemisches Denken und soziale Transformation. In seiner internationalen Arbeit verbindet er seit Jahren Gestaltung mit sozialen und ökologischen Herausforderungen – insbesondere dort, wo komplexe Krisen nachhaltige und kontextbasierte Antworten erfordern. Neben seiner Arbeit in humanitären und sozialunternehmerischen Kontexten – etwa im Libanon, in Griechenland, Peru und Äquatorialguinea – reichen seine Berührungspunkte mit Permakultur von Community-Gärten in Geflüchtetenprojekten über Beratungsprojekte auf landwirtschaftlichen Flächen in Marokko bis hin zur Entwicklung eines Sensorsystems und Erntewerkzeugs im Rahmen eines Kakao-Projekts mit Kleinbauern in Westafrika. Permakulturprinzipien spielten dabei eine tragende Rolle – nicht nur landschaftlich, sondern auch als methodischer Rahmen in der sozialen Gestaltung. Michael Menge, 1985 in Duisburg geboren, ist Master of Arts. 2008-2013 studierte er an den Hochschulen Köln und Mainz. Umfassende internationale Berufserfahrung in verschiedenen Sparten der visuellen Kommunikation sammelte er bei verschiedenen Design Unternehmen in Festanstellung und Freelancer Lange und Durach, Köln; Digital Eskimo, Sydney; Baggen Design, Düsseldorf; Saatchi&Saatchi, Düsseldorf; Ogilvy, Düsseldorf; GSVI, Bochum Mit seinem Design Büro studio franz, was er 2022 gegründet hat arbeitet er europaweit für Kunden vom internationalen Mittelstand bis zu Museen in Wien. Die Arbeiten, die in den letzten Jahren entstanden sind, wurden mit zahlreichen branchenrelevanten Preisen geehrt, darunter: 5* red dot, 1* red dot best of the best 1*The finest agencies germany, 5* Corporate Design Preis, 2* IF Design Award, 4* German Design Award Special Mention, 3* German Brand Award nominee, 1* Shortlist

If you're overwhelmed, burned out or just trying to make it through the day without falling apart, this episode is for you.More info, resources & ways to connect - https://www.tacosfallapart.com/podcast-live-show/podcast-guests/courtney-schulnickIn this episode, I sat down with Courtney Schulnick to talk all about mindfulness and how it actually fits into messy, busy, real life! Courtney spent almost 20 years as a high-pressure litigator at a major law firm in Philly. The work was demanding and stressful. When she had her first child, she managed. When her family grew and life threw her fertility struggles and long sleepless nights, she kept pushing through. But she was burning out. Badly. That's when her therapist suggested mindfulness.At first, Courtney was skeptical. The idea of committing to a two-and-a-half-hour class every week, plus daily home practice, felt impossible. But eventually, she realized something had to give. She signed up for an MBSR (Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction) course and it completely shifted how she moved through the world. The stress didn't go away, but her relationship to it did. She started feeling more present, more grounded, more in control. She not only learned to function better at work, she learned to show up for her life.We talked about how mindfulness helped her navigate the pressures of law while raising three boys, and how it ultimately bought her another ten years in a career she had nearly burned out of. She now teaches MBSR herself and helps high-performing professionals find balance without sacrificing their ambition.Courtney broke down what mindfulness actually is: moment-to-moment awareness, without judgment. It's not about clearing your mind or sitting in silence for hours. It can be as simple as noticing your feet on the floor or being fully present while brushing your teeth. And it works. There's a growing body of scientific evidence showing that mindfulness reduces anxiety, depression and even boosts immune function.She also tackled the idea that mindfulness is just another luxury or self-care chore. It's not. It's a way of being, not a task to check off a list. And yes, even busy people can do it. You don't need to dedicate hours to see the benefits. A few minutes a day can make a difference.We also talked about how mindfulness intersects with trauma. Courtney was clear: mindfulness is powerful, but it's not for everyone at every moment. If someone is navigating trauma or deep depression, it's important to be mindful about mindfulness (pun intended) and to have professional support in place.Throughout the conversation, Courtney's warmth and honesty stood out. She shared personal stories, like stealing Snickers bars as a kid, and how her kids now remind her to slow down. We laughed about egg cups, Instagram reels and the ongoing challenge of being present as a parent in a world that never stops pinging.If you've been curious about mindfulness, or if you're overwhelmed and looking for a way to show up more fully in your own life, this episode is a great place to start.

I denne episoden har jeg med meg psykologspesialist og mindfulness-instruktør Cathrine Helgø Sasson. Hun er utdannet ved Center for Mindfulness ved University of Massachusetts – der Jon Kabat-Zinn selv var en av hennes lærere – og har over ti års erfaring med å holde MBSR-kurs i både helsevesenet og privat praksis. Vi snakker om hva mindfulness egentlig er – og hva det ikke er. Hva det vil si å være til stede i eget liv, og hvorfor det er så vanskelig for mange av oss i dag. Hvordan kan mindfulness hjelpe oss når vi står i stress, utmattelse eller indre uro? Cathrine deler fra egen erfaring som fagperson og mamma, og vi snakker også om selvmedfølelse, kroppsbevissthet og hvordan små øyeblikk av nærvær kan gjøre stor forskjell i hverdagen og hvordan vi har det i livet.I løpet av episoden er vi også innom: Hvorfor gidde å begynne å meditere?Hvordan virker det?Hva hjelper det med?Er vi tankene våre?På slutten tar Cathrine oss gjennom en meditasjonsøvelse.For mer info fra Cathrine Sasson:www.mindfulnesskurs.orgwww.facebook.com/mindfullifembsrwww.cathrinesasson.noAlt godt,AnnetteFølg meg gjerne på:Instagram.com/dr.annettedraglandFacebook.com/drannettedraglandhttps://youtube.com/@drannetteDisclaimer: Innholdet i podcasten og på denne nettsiden er ikke ment å utgjøre eller være en erstatning for profesjonell medisinsk rådgivning, diagnose eller behandling.

How might we meet the realities of cruelty and injustice with a grounded and compassionate Buddhist perspective?Ian Challis suggests that we first acknowledge that witnessing or experiencing cruelty can generate intense emotional responses—anger, grief, fear—and that these reactions are natural.However, Ian encourages us to avoid being overwhelmed or reactive. Instead, he suggests grounding ourselves in awareness and intention, recognizing that our own suffering in the face of cruelty is an opportunity for deeper practice and connection. He emphasizes that avoiding cruelty doesn't mean turning away from pain—it means engaging with clarity and care.Ian shares several guiding principles and reflections to help us in this effort:Recognize shared suffering: Understand that even those who act cruelly are often driven by their own confusion and suffering.Choose wise response over reactivity: Awareness helps interrupt cycles of violence and retaliation.Practice compassion with boundaries: Being compassionate doesn't mean accepting harm—it includes protecting oneself and others wisely.Stay connected to values: Respond from a place of love, justice, and mindfulness, even when action is necessary.He also briefly touches on how Buddhist ethics (sīla) and the cultivation of wisdom (paññā) support us in transforming our response to injustice into a path of liberation.______________Ian Challis is a student and teacher in the Insight Tradition of Buddhism. He is a teacher, founding member, and past guiding teacher of Insight Community of the Desert in Palm Springs.Ayya Khema, Leigh Brasington, Narayan Liebenson, Larry Yang, and Arinna Weisman are key teachers who have inspired and illuminated his practice.Serving Queer community is a passion. 2025 marks his co-teaching of the 9th annual Queer retreat at Dhamma Dena Retreat Center with Leslie Booker.

Here I offer a guided meditation by offering the gift of lovingkindness in the form of phrases to loved ones.Then we move into a visualization where we radiate kindness energy out to drench ourselves in the warm energy of kindness. The longer we stay in the experience of lovingkindness, the more our neurons wire and fire together, allowing the passing state of kindness to become a permanent trait.Meditation can be challenging at times.

Many years ago I was in a cycle of a certain kind of stress that was bubbling just beneath the surface, in a way that didn't scream urgency as you would perhaps feel during a big life transition, exam season or project deadline season, the illness of a family member, but rather, the kind of daily stress that keeps you on a hamster wheel, moving through your day scratching things off to-do lists, with your mind firmly on the next thing. I started having this very uncomfortable feeling that I was ending my day and when my head hit the pillow, even when I had gotten a lot of things done that day, I felt as though I had missed the whole day. I felt as though time was rushing past me and twirling me around as if caught in the force of white rapids. Had I even taken a conscious breath in the entire day? Had I really been present in my conversations? Had I even looked at my dogs as we were going on our long walk that I looked forward to so much? Had I even looked at the beauty of the woods we were walking in? As it tends to happen, when I looked at my food choices that day, I had similar questions. Why did I eat that food I really didn't feel like eating just because it was easiest? Did I even taste my food? How long did it take me to eat? How was it? What was my favorite part? The answers to all of these questions were either a mind left blank, or a big, no. As in no I hadn't been present in anything I had done that day, only in the race to get everything done. Something had to change, and I did a little Google search and found something that changed my life forever. A free, open sourced, no email required course on something called mindfulness, MBSR mindfulness to be specific. What happened during the next few weeks was so astounding, and it still keeps me company to this day, it has changed my relationship with food, and it has been, above all else, a time stretcher. In today's episode, I give you a beginners guide to MBSR mindfulness and how it connects to mindful eating and veganism. I'll provide you with resources, courses, apps, tools, videos and especially, a guide for getting started. For the videos and links mentioned in today's episode click here or visit brownble.com/blog
Learning to Be Mindful in Life with Courtney Schulnick As a Lawyer and Certified Mindfulness Educator, Courtney Schulnick is passionate about helping fellow attorneys and business professionals find ways to manage stress and anxiety better, as she has learned. For the better part of two decades now, Courtney has worked as an attorney defending individuals and businesses in casualty matters in both local, state, and federal courts. As a litigator in a high-pressure environment, Country knows firsthand what chronic stress can do to one's focus, performance, relationships, and overall health. With a hugely rewarding career and a family she adored, Courtney once found herself close to a virtual breakdown due to the pressure of trying to balance it all. Juggling too much and suffering some personal losses, Courtney found herself unable to enjoy what really mattered in life and knew something had to change. To better manage her anxiety and the stressors, Courtney enrolled herself in the Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) Program offered at the Myrna Brind Center for Mindfulness at Jefferson in Philadelphia, PA. It would be there that Courtney noticed the ways in which the practice of mindfulness increasingly enriched her life on both a professional and personal level. The desire to deepen her own practice and share the gift of mindfulness with others encouraged Courtney to complete the extensive MBSR teacher training at Jefferson. Now, as an educator herself, Courtney helps others overcome their anxiety and stress by teaching mindfulness so that they, too, can live more fully in the present moment and achieve greater balance, vitality, and health. Her greatest teachers of all time … Her husband and three young boys. Listen in as Courtney, and I discuss how finding it hard to balance a healthy life helped her discover just how to do that, her mission to help others do the same before they become burned out, and how being mindful has led her to a path of FEARLESS HAPPYNESS!
