飛花落院創辦人魏幸怡的創業人生與款待哲學《主人精神的款待》上| 天下文化 Podcast 讀本郝書

這一集天下文化Podcast,主持人郝旭烈(郝哥),邀請他的好友魏幸怡(魏姐)一起談她的人生歷程,以及《主人精神的款待》這本書背後真正的故事。 魏姐從小就渴望獨立,國中畢業後選擇離家到外地就讀高中,雖然父親嚴格,她仍努力兼顧家庭與學業。她每天早上五點半出門,白天幫忙家裡經營牛肉麵店,晚上再去學調酒,養成了自律與勤奮的習慣。這段經歷讓她理解,創業不只是生意技巧,更是責任感、耐力與學習能力的累積。 魏姐學調酒的過程充滿挑戰。師傅不願意教,她只能從果皮、廢料中觀察技巧,回家反覆練習。這段「偷學」的經歷讓她學會逆向思考,也形成她日後對員工的管理理念,創業者應該創造讓團隊真正能學到東西的環境,而不是讓人只是被動工作。 她的創業第一步是經營洗衣店。為了讓投幣洗衣機的生意能夠盈利,她找了工讀生幫忙,將流程設計得更高效,這也是她學會資源運用與流程優化的起點。隨後,她開始進入餐飲業,最初在台中市區改造廢墟開餐廳。開店初期困難重重,客人寥寥,但她透過不斷嘗試、改進服務、親自接觸客人,並借助媒體報導,逐步打開知名度。 在開了多家餐廳之後,魏姐開始打造「飛花洛院」,這是她耗時十年設計的山中餐廳,不只是餐廳,而是一個藝術化、可傳承的空間。她和團隊觀察風向、夕陽、四季變化,設計建築坐落、石頭牆和竹子裝飾,每個細節都經過精心計算和手工完成。 石頭牆不使用水泥,每顆石頭都經過挑選、堆疊、灌水固定;竹子則要烤過、修整再安裝。這些細節大多客人無法看見,但正是這份用心,塑造了真正的「主人精神」:款待不只是食物和服務,更是從環境、細節到文化,讓客人感受到回家的溫暖。 魏姐強調,這種精神是從個人到團隊再到客人的延伸:她從自己的成長經歷出發,建立文化與流程,讓團隊也能內化這種款待理念。 每個客人、每一季、每一次來訪,她和團隊都能感知客人的需求,延續這份細膩的關懷。這集節目分享的不只是魏幸怡的創業故事,更呈現了「主人精神」如何融入生活與事業,讓經營成為一種生活態度,而非單純的生意操作。 下一集,節目將進一步深入探討「款待」如何被具體落實在團隊與日常之中。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

幸福並不是擁有得多,而是期待得少《財富自由心理學》|天下文化Podcast x 郝聲音 x 哇賽心理學

這一集天下文化Podcast,由蔡宇哲老師與郝旭烈 郝哥分享他們的新書《財富自由心理學》 原本這只是從節目中聊到理財與心理的交集,沒想到聽眾反應熱烈,最後與天下文化合作,把過去談過的內容加上更系統化、也更重要的補充觀點,集結成一本書。他們也特別強調,這本書並不是單純教你如何賺錢,而是想回答一個更根本的問題「為什麼我們想要財富自由」。 節目開始就點出一個常見迷思:很多人以為財富自由等於賺到一個「足夠大的數字」,但現實中有不少很有錢的人,依然感到不自由、不快樂。郝哥引用投資大師的話說明,「幸福並不是擁有得多,而是期待得少」。這句話其實揭示了財富自由背後真正的關鍵並不在錢,而在我們怎麼看待錢、怎麼做選擇。錢很重要,但它不是唯一的目標;真正重要的是,我們能不能在追求財富的同時,保有對生活的主導權,而不是被錢牽著走。 宇哲老師進一步把話題拉回「幸福」本身,指出多數人追求財富,最後其實都是為了快樂與幸福。他提到,金錢並不是最稀缺的資源,時間才是,而比時間更稀缺的是注意力。真正值得問的問題是:我們把注意力放在哪裡?如果財富自由只是為了讓生活更快樂,那就不應該等到「賺夠錢」才開始思考怎麼生活。 透過他與女兒的真實對話,他體會到,孩子要的快樂不是更多物質,而是高品質的陪伴,這也提醒大人,很多幸福其實不需要等到財富自由才有。 蔡宇哲老師與郝旭烈 反覆強調,財富自由不是一個終點,而是一個隨著人生階段不斷變動的過程。不同年紀、不同角色,對快樂的定義都會改變,因此關鍵不是追求一個固定的目標,而是持續了解自己、調整方向。 郝哥分享了他對快樂的體悟,認為成長的過程中,真正的幸福往往來自「簡單」。小時候是簡單的事情就能快樂,長大後反而是簡單本身就成了快樂。他提到,當生活過度複雜、慾望過高,反而容易失去平靜。很多真正的「五星級體驗」,其實是散步、閱讀、陪伴家人這類不花大錢卻高度滿足的時刻。這也再次呼應「期待少一點,幸福就多一點」的核心觀念。 在談到「錢越多不一定越快樂」時,兩人指出比較心理是關鍵原因之一。如果只看「比上不足」,永遠都會覺得自己不夠好、不夠有錢;但若同時記得「比下有餘」,才能產生知足感。理想狀態是讓比較成為前進的動力,而不是讓自己陷入永無止境的不滿。否則即使財富增加,焦慮與不快樂也會同步放大。 另一個重要迷思是,把財富自由想成「解決一切問題」的萬靈丹。節目用「馬桶數量」這個例子說明,財富自由比較像是讓人「離苦」,減少生活中的痛苦與匱乏,但它本身不會自動帶來快樂。離苦與得樂是兩條不同的路,如果人生只停留在不痛苦,卻沒有經營關係、意義與成長,依然很難感到幸福。 談到人生整體的平衡,郝哥用「四個輪子的跑車」來比喻:金錢、健康、關係與自我成長缺一不可。只顧賺錢卻忽略健康或家人,最後往往得不償失。他也分享自己因健康問題提早停下腳步,才真正有機會陪伴家人,體會到什麼叫做自由。自由在他們的定義裡,不是什麼都不做,而是擁有選擇權,不必被迫只剩下一條路。 節目的最後談到「慢富」這個常被誤解的概念。他們並不是反對進步或效率,而是提醒大家,過度追求快速致富,往往會犧牲無法回頭的重要事物,例如孩子的成長、親密關係或自身健康。 財富的累積本質上是一種能力與學習的結果,而不是投機的賭博。只要能力跟得上,所謂的「慢」其實也可以很有效率,關鍵在於是否「得配位」,也就是你所得到的,是否與你的能力與價值相匹配。 《財富自由心理學》這本書想談的,並不是教你賺最多的錢,而是協助你建立金錢觀、理財觀與投資觀,進而形成人生觀,讓你在現實生活中找到屬於自己的平衡點。真正的財富自由,不在帳戶數字,而在你是否感覺自己活得自由、踏實且有意義。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

一塊太陽餅,讓城市被世界看見;胡志強與陳蓓梅談台中精神與行銷之道

這一集《天下文化・相信閱讀》Podcast,由天下文化總經理鄧瑋羚主持,邀請前台中市市長胡志強,以及台中糕餅品牌「丰丹嚴選本舖」總經理陳蓓梅,透過一場溫暖而深刻的對談,串連起城市治理、文化行銷、產業發展與人情溫度。 節目一開始,主持人介紹胡志強市長與他的新書《我是胡志強,今天來報到》,指出這本書不只是政治人物的生涯回顧,更是一段關於如何打造城市、讓市民產生認同與驕傲的生命紀錄。書中大量篇幅回到他擔任台中市長的歲月,描寫他如何一步步讓台中被國際看見,並在市民心中建立起深厚的情感連結。 談到台中,話題自然聚焦到最具代表性的城市行銷案例──太陽餅。胡志強市長回憶,在他上任之前,太陽餅早已存在,卻還沒有形成「到台中一定要買」的集體印象。於是他選擇將太陽餅作為台中的城市符號,親自參與推廣,甚至以歌劇、角色扮演的方式宣傳,成功讓太陽餅成為台中的代名詞。他也強調,這並不是刻意炒作,而是因為太陽餅本身有歷史、有特色,也真的好吃,而城市行銷最重要的核心就在於「特點」,一旦失去特色,城市很容易被同質化淹沒。 從產業端的角度,陳蓓梅分享了自己的創業歷程。她坦言自己原本並非糕餅背景,是在看見胡志強市長推動台中糕餅產業、帶著業者走向國際之後,才真正看見這個產業的可能性,並在因緣際會下與妹妹一同投入太陽餅與糕餅事業。創業初期競爭激烈,也曾受到質疑,但她始終相信,只要產品夠好、包裝用心、態度真誠,就能在市場中走出屬於自己的位置。 胡志強市長則以推動者與旁觀者的角度,分析丰丹成功的關鍵。他認為,丰丹能在短短十多年內脫穎而出,不只是因為餅好吃,更在於對包裝與整體質感的高度要求,讓產品在送禮時顯得體面、收禮時感到開心。他甚至坦言,曾直接勸其他太陽餅業者向丰丹學習品牌與包裝思維,因為在伴手禮市場中,真正具備競爭力的,是內在品質與外在呈現的同時到位。 對談中也穿插許多動人的小故事。胡志強分享,有朋友第一次吃到丰丹太陽餅便深受感動,隨即訂購兩千多盒,讓他深刻體會到「品質本身就是最好的行銷」。他也提到,自己推廣太陽餅的過程中,影響了不少中年轉職者投入糕餅產業,重新找到人生方向,這些看不見的改變,讓他至今仍感到欣慰。 話題接著延伸到城市治理。胡志強市長指出,城市行銷從來不只是表面的宣傳,而是建立在交通、文化、生活品質等長期建設之上。陳蓓梅則以市民與企業家的雙重身分分享,在她心中,胡志強市長最大的貢獻,是讓台中市民第一次真切感受到「驕傲」,不再覺得台中永遠落後於其他城市。無論是大型藝文活動的引進、文化能量的累積,或是交通建設的推動,都讓台中逐漸變得自信而美麗。 節目後段談到台中糕餅走向國際,尤其是新加坡市場。陳蓓梅分享,丰丹特別為新加坡量身打造禮盒設計,結合當地城市意象與高端質感,讓具有台灣在地風味的糕餅,在海外也被視為精緻、值得送禮的產品。她認為,成功的關鍵在於尊重市場、理解文化,同時堅守品質與真材實料。胡志強市長也補充,新加坡社會重視誠意與交情,只要產品與做人一樣真心,自然能被接受與肯定。 胡志強進一步分享了他與新加坡多年來的深厚情誼,包括與前外長楊榮文之間,因台灣醫療與捐血而建立的私人友誼,說明國際關係除了制度與政治,更深層的力量往往來自人與人之間的信任與善意。這些故事,也再次呼應他一貫的理念──無論是治理城市、經營產業,還是進行國際交流,最終都回到真誠與用心。 整集節目就像一段台中精神的回顧:把事情踏實做好,找出屬於自己的特色,用真心對人、用心做事,城市與產業自然會被看見,也會被長久記住。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

如何走出焦慮?消除焦慮的最佳指南《逆轉內耗》|天下文化Podcast 讀本郝書 EP61

這一集天下文化Podcast,主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)分享《逆轉內耗》, 從現代人普遍的焦慮經驗談起,逐步鋪陳出「焦慮從何而來,又如何被轉化」的完整脈絡。 節目一開始,郝哥先帶大家看見當代生活的集體狀態:高壓的工作、不確定的未來、對被取代的恐懼、對家庭與自我責任的內疚,以及在夢想與現實之間拉扯的疲憊感。 作者指出,焦慮之所以會失控,常來自三個來源。第一是我們在不自覺中不斷用思緒刺激大腦,反覆預演最壞的未來;第二是社會與媒體製造並擴散焦慮,人們又在分享中彼此強化;第三則是焦慮無法被直接消除,只能被其他更強的心理活動取代。 這也引出了全書的核心概念——創造力。書中認為,真正能扭轉焦慮螺旋的,不是否認焦慮,而是用創造力建立另一個良性的循環。 全書的結構分成三個層次:先是「馴服內在的小動物」,接著是「喚醒創造力」,最後是「與創造力合一」。 在第一個部分,作者用動物的例子說明人類焦慮的獨特之處。動物的恐懼只存在於當下,危險過了就結束;人類卻會在事件結束後,仍不斷在腦中重播與想像未來可能發生的威脅,於是恐懼被延長,變成焦慮。這種差異,正是焦慮螺旋的根源。 為了讓人回到當下、安撫這個「內在的小動物」,作者提出一套實際可行的練習流程。郝哥也分享自己親身嘗試後,確實感受到效果。這個過程從覺察內心正在害怕什麼開始,透過吐氣、放鬆視線、輕微的身體移動,讓身體感受到「威脅已經過去」。 當焦慮暫時被安撫後,注意力開始轉移,人就有可能進入第二個階段——喚醒創造力。書中與郝哥都提到,許多焦慮來自過度使用理性的左腦,不斷分析、推演與比較,卻沒有行動的出口。創造性的活動,正好啟動右腦,讓注意力從「問題」轉向「正在做的事」。 書中分享創造力它不只存在於藝術,而是任何能讓人全然投入、不被思考干擾的活動。跑步、爬山、音樂、歌唱,都可能成為創造力的入口。當人從恐懼轉向趣味,從比較轉向遊戲感,生活本身就開始變得輕盈。 最後一個層次「與創造力合一」,則是把創造力從工具,變成生活方式。作者指出,社會教育我們追求標準化與生產力,要求人符合既定模子,這正是比較與焦慮的溫床;而創造力讓人回到「我是我,他是他」,不再用他人的標準定義自己。 郝哥也以自身經歷呼應這個觀點。他在離開原本穩定的職涯後,透過創作、演講、Podcast 與運動,走出一條沒有標準答案的路。這些創造性的嘗試,讓工作不再只是責任,而是生活本身。 他強調,很多時候不是「想清楚了才去做」,而是「做了之後才知道自己要什麼」,每一次創作都是累積勇氣與視野的過程。 最後郝哥分享焦慮不需要被消滅,它本身也是一種生命能量。真正重要的是,讓焦慮有出口,轉化為創造力。當焦慮成為創作的素材,而非內耗的來源,人就能在不確定的世界裡,找到屬於自己的節奏與意義,也更有機會體會生活中的喜悅與美好。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

這一集天下文化Podcast,主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)介紹岸見一郎的新書《自在感的練習》副標題:你可以不要活成別人期待的樣子,這本書延續了《被討厭的勇氣》的阿德勒心理學脈絡,核心在談「如何不再被比較與競爭綁架,活出自在的人生」。 岸見一郎提醒我們,真正讓人痛苦的不是能力不足,而是「比較」本身。當一個人總是想勝過別人,或至少不能輸給別人,就會長期處在緊繃狀態,失去生活的幸福感。 書中提出一個看起來矛盾、但其實是一個深刻的生活態度:不追求成為特別,但也不必刻意和他人一樣,這正是「自在感」的核心。 為什麼我們會如此渴望變得特別? 郝哥分享這是因為從家庭教育談起。在成長過程中,孩子常常在兄弟姊妹之間競爭父母的關注,久而久之就學會一件事:如果不夠突出,就得不到愛與重視。這種經驗會內化成一種信念,一路延續到學校、職場與社會,競爭的對象從兄弟姊妹變成同學、同事,但心理結構其實一模一樣。 我們不是因為真的想超越誰,而是害怕如果不特別,就會失去價值。 這種過度追求特別,反而會帶來一種「脆弱的優越感」。這種人看似自信,其實非常害怕失敗,因為一旦失敗,就會失去「我很厲害」的形象。於是他們往往不敢嘗試新事物,甚至用「我已經很優秀了」來拒絕學習,結果反而失去了成長的機會。 這也是岸見一郎特別強調「平凡的意義」的原因。平凡並不是否定自己,而是不再刻意包裝、不再執著於他人眼光,只是踏實地把事情做好、持續累積。 談到自卑,節目強調阿德勒心理學的一個重要觀點:自卑不是能力不足,而是「否定行動的理由」。 很多人用「我不行」「我沒資格」來說服自己不要開始,結果什麼都沒有投入,自然也不會有結果。真正克服自卑的方法,不是想通自己多優秀,而是去行動、去投入。只要開始做,就會有結果,而結果會累積成信心。所謂自信,並不是被別人認為有能力,而是自己真的在行動中培養出能力。 節目提醒,不要把自己的起點拿去和別人的終點比較。這種比較只會製造挫敗感。每個人的條件、節奏與天賦不同,就像烏龜不需要在陸地上跟兔子賽跑,而應該找到屬於自己的舞台。真正的自信,來自於認識自己是誰、適合什麼,而不是硬要活成別人的樣子。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

本集節目由 天下文化Podcast與郝聲音 共同製作。由主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)與賴佩霞老師對談,她的新書《靜心的力量》 一開始,郝哥分享了他個人的經驗,從身體不適、睡眠困擾到嘗試冥想的過程。他發現即使身體靜下來,心卻依然翻騰,這讓他理解「靜心」並非只是外表的安靜,而是內在真正的安定。賴佩霞老師順著這個話題談到,許多人只有在生病或崩潰後才開始學習靜心,實際上這是一種遲來的學習。如果我們能早些理解如何讓心安定,就不需要走到極端的身心失衡。 佩霞老師說,當人靜下來時,會發現腦中有無數自動運轉的雜念與思維模式。剛開始閉上眼睛,看不到外在世界,反而更清楚看到內在的混亂。靜心的練習,讓人學會「觀照」這些念頭,而不是被它們牽著走。佩霞老師老師指出,人的頭腦天生有「製造問題—解決問題」的傾向,當問題暫時解決,它又會創造新的問題,這是頭腦為了「求生存」而不停預測未來的機制。若不自覺地被頭腦帶著走,我們就會陷入無止盡的焦慮與不安。 焦慮讓我們更容易被操弄,也讓我們誤以為「忙碌」等於「有價值」。但事實上,唯有當人靜下來、感受到自己仍然安然無恙,才有機會清楚看見什麼是真正重要的事。 在談到社會對立與分裂時,佩霞老師提出一個重要的觀點:人與人之間的衝突往往不是本質上的敵意,而是因為有人從「分裂」中得利。只要我們被情緒挑起、產生對立,那些操弄情緒的力量就能獲利。她提醒大家要思考「誰是分裂你與我之間的得利者?」當我們有這樣的覺察,就不容易被情緒綁架。 她也把這樣的洞察帶回家庭層面:夫妻、長輩、孩子之間的衝突,其實也可能源自於恐懼或需求。若能靜下來看見背後的動機,就能化對立為合作,成為彼此的盟友,而不是敵人。她用「分工合作、同一團隊」來比喻家庭關係——每個人都有自己的責任範圍,學會溝通、協調,事情自然會順。 郝哥談到自己靜不下來時,腦中常有愧疚與焦慮,總覺得「欠人家什麼」,每天被那種責任感推著走。 佩霞老師老師則說,這正是現代人普遍的現象,被「要更努力」「要更好」的信念困住。她鼓勵大家學習溫柔地說「不」,誠實面對自己的負荷,讓心有喘息的空間。 最後,佩霞老師告訴我們,「靜心就是回到當下」。只有當我們停下來,承認自己的緊張、焦慮、恐懼,並溫柔地安撫自己,才有能力轉念、轉化。 靜心讓人能夠清楚地看見事實,不再被故事牽著走,也能在混亂的世界中,仍然保有內在的安穩與力量。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

本集節目由 天下文化Podcast與郝聲音 共同製作。由主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)與賴佩霞老師對談,她的新書《靜心的力量》 延續上一集的對談,郝哥談到現代人從小被教育要拼搏、要成功、要比較,這樣的成長環境雖然培養了成就,但也在心裡埋下焦慮與壓力。他以自身經驗分享,曾因身體病倒而被迫放下高壓的工作,才真正開始接觸「養心」與「靜心」的重要性。這讓他體會到:「心不定,身就會亂」,而靜心並非容易的事,特別是在資訊爆炸、大家都「忙得理所當然」的時代,想要「不忙」反而會感到愧疚。 佩霞老師回應「靜心很難」這個觀念。她指出,當我們覺得一件事情難,它就真的會變難;那是一種思維的框架。因此第一步是「解除標籤」,不再給靜心貼上「困難」的定義。她強調靜心其實非常容易,只需要有意識地提醒自己。 她舉例北歐企業的制度:每天固定時間,全公司會停止一切運作,安靜五分鐘。這樣的短暫靜止,反而提升了效率與健康,甚至減少請假。她建議我們也可以為自己設定小段時間,讓頭腦放鬆、呼吸回到身體裡。 佩霞老師提醒我們靜心的目的,就是讓我們能誠實而溫柔地面對自己。「問問自己怎麼了?需要什麼幫助?不要再罵自己,也不要批判別人。」這才是真正的愛與修行。 郝哥引用薩古魯的話:「一年給自己兩個禮拜什麼都不做,作為對自己的禮物。」佩霞老師補充說,其實每天都能給自己一點「靜的時間」。 她回憶《轉念的力量》裡的一句提醒:當煩惱來時,先分辨那是老天的事、別人的事還是自己的事。如果是自己的事,就好好照顧自己。她也笑說,自己現在退了很多群組、少上無謂的課,只為讓心靜下來,把時間還給自己。 節目的尾聲,佩霞老師再次強調:「靜心不是逃避,而是回家。」當我們能讓心安定下來,身體、情緒、關係乃至生命的方向都會自然變好。 邀請每個人回到自己內在最柔軟的地方,用愛與覺知,重新與生命連結。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

這集《天下文化 Podcast》中,主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)分享一本讓許多父母深有共鳴的教養書,丘美珍的《工作媽媽學會的事》。 作者丘美珍曾是雜誌總編輯,為了三個孩子毅然離開職場,全心陪伴十二年。直到孩子們陸續上大學,她才發現自己陷入財務不獨立、人生缺乏故事的困境,於是選擇重返職場,再次找到工作的成就與快樂。她的經歷成了許多父母的借鏡:如何在家庭與自我之間取得平衡。 郝哥特別喜歡書中一句話:「陪伴有時,放飛有時,保有自我。」他認為這三個概念就是養育與自我成長的精髓。陪伴意味著愛與連結,放飛象徵孩子終將獨立,而父母仍需保有自我,不該在孩子長大後失去生活的重心。 郝哥將書中的核心收斂為五大重點。 首先是「陪伴能夠成就愛」。真正難忘的時光不是監督課業,而是與孩子一起做飯、出遊、散步、玩耍。這些高品質的陪伴,才會留下愛的記憶與心靈的連結。 其次是「善用教養的十大助力」。從陪伴、盟友、手足、界限、困惑、空間、動察、提問、習慣到閱讀,都是滋養親子關係的力量。 比如,父母要避免在手足間比較,因為比較會帶來傷害;要懂得建立界限,和長輩溝通清楚教養的立場,避免價值觀衝突;要創造共同空間,讓家人有機會「在一起」;要用提問取代命令,啟發孩子思考;要以身作則養成好習慣;要讓閱讀成為一種生活方式,因為閱讀帶來視野,也開啟更多選擇。 第三點是「不要被外界的標準綁住」。父母常常不自覺把同儕或社會期待加諸在孩子身上,但其實孩子應該走自己的路。無論是窮養還是富養,都不如培養孩子具備「自處」的能力重要。 第四點是「幸福才是教養的最終目標」。並不是學歷、成績或收入才代表成功,而是能過上自己選擇的人生、擁有幸福感。父母要學會課題分離,尊重孩子的幸福選擇。 最後是「用栽培孩子的熱情,來栽培自己」。當孩子長大離巢,父母不該空心或失落,而是要重新經營人生下半場。把自己照顧好,不只是為了自己,也是讓孩子更安心,讓整個家庭形成正向循環。 唯有先把自己過好,才有能力去善待他人,才可能讓整個家庭和諧而美好。 Powered by Firstory Hosting
