On February 18th, 2025, I signed the publishing contract. On February 16th, 2026, the book will be released. There’s a quiet anticipation in me today.
This book wasn’t an overnight idea. I carried it with me for years, wrote in small steps, and slowly built the foundation. Including the blog on my website, which became the first seed of the project.
At some point, the time is simply right.
Your reactions on social media gave me confidence and energy along the way. Now I’m excited for everything that will unfold around the book. And it all begins with the launch party.
I’m truly excited about my upcoming conversation with publisher Barbara Budrich, and I can’t wait to celebrate together with you.
It will take place on Tuesday, March 3rd, 3 PM (Amsterdam, Berlin, Rome, Stockholm, Vienna time) on Zoom.
The only downside of this: the party will be in German language. If you’d like to follow the German‑language Zoom talk, you can use your iPhone and AirPods Pro to have the presentation translated into English in real time. It is a simple and seamless solution without any extra equipment.
And as the book is in German for now, I need to work on a translation, I guess.
