PERSONAL MILESTONE

Writing my own book

Publishing my book Deal With It was a huge milestone. It’s the book I wish I could have read when I first started out as an entrepreneur and investor - a blend of knowledge, experience, and raw reality. No jargon, just boldness.

“Move your body every single day! Ideally, train for something tough (like Hyrox or a marathon). That way, you can completely switch off - get out of your head and stop thinking about work at all.”

BOOK

The Diary of a CEO by Steven Bartlett

A wonderful book full of valuable business lessons. And of course, my own book :-)

DAILY INSPIRATIONS

I draw daily inspiration from founders who take risks to build something new. And from lots of podcasts! I deeply believe in the power of storytelling - Martha Stewart’s MasterClass, Emma Grede’s podcast Aspire, and the Stanford Business School podcast are some of my favourites. And, of course, from my children - their openness and endless questions constantly make me reflect on what truly matters.

ART

The sculptures from Louise Bourgeois

Art reminds me not to live solely in logic and reason, but also in emotion and imagination. I’m a big fan of Louise Bourgeois - her sculptures about mother–daughter relationships, fear, and vulnerability are raw and powerful all at once.

BAG PICKED

Pyramid in Black

I use the KAAI Pyramid in black - sleek design, super functional, and finally a bag that fits my laptop, notebook, gym gear, and snacks for my kids.

It blends work and personal life effortlessly, which is exactly what I need. I genuinely take it everywhere, and it still looks as beautiful as the day I got it!
