In 2021, after months of pain and no clear answers, I finally had an endoscopy. Now, I was really healthy. I was in my mid to late 20s, so I didn't really expect a lot to come from that.However, I was shocked when I was diagnosed with indometriosis. This is a condition where a tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus. This can cause pain, inflammation, and in my case, even infertility.Wow, was I shocked. My provider gave me two options. Have a partial hysterctomy or try to conc ...

When was the last time you smiled about a rainy day instead of complaining about frizzy hair or wet socks. Or the last time you saw a pile of autumn leaves and thought about jumping in rather than groaning about raking them. When was the last time you rolled down a hill or ran barefoot through the grass.Rain, crunchy leaves, the outdoors used to be such magical moments before we started seeing them as chores. So when did they start becoming inconveniences in our lives. In our world, we are always hustling f ...

Last summer, while I was studying in Greece, a quick trip to the grocery store turned into a 10-minute staring contest with a granola bar box. It wasn't the language or the kilogjles that tripped me up, but the bright green digestive bar stamped across the front. I kept asking myself what that could mean or why someone might need that, which are ironically the exact same questions I asked myself during grocery trips freshman year.Being an informed buyer means facing marketed nutrition labels like these.

[musik] [applaus] Danke. Tatsächlich bin Experte für Rhetorik und für Wirkung und ich habe ein Geständnis für euch. Ich habe mir diese Rede heute von der KI schreiben lassen.Chat GPT hat zugeschlagen und es war beeindruckend wie immer. Es war die perfekte Rede, die mir die künstliche Intelligenz geschrieben hat und die war sogar nur so gnädig, hat mir reingeschrieben, wann ich atmen soll, wann ich Pausen mache, sogar wann ihr lacht. Hat mir die KI reingeschrieben, weil sie das alles weiß. Es war wirklich pe ...

Ich habe Ihnen heute ein Symbol mitgebracht. Ein Symbol für die perfekte Effizienz eines Bienenstocks. Eine Biene findet eine Nektarquelle.Sie kommt zurück, sie tanzt den berühmten Waggle Dance und alle anderen folgen. Brillant. Aber was passiert, wenn die Nektarquelle versiegt. Was passiert, wenn der alte Tanz plötzlich ins Leere führt.Ich habe das Gefühl, unsere Arbeitswelt ist heute oft wie ein einziger großer Bienenstock, der nur eine Nektarquelle kennt. Alle tanzen denselben Tanz. Ein System, das wir i ...
