פרק 79 - עם יאנה דרום, Founder & CEO של ”Yana Fashion”

איך אפשר לנתב את הנקודה הכי כואבת בחיינו כדי לייצר אימפקט ושמחת חיים? 

 

אמנם חודש המודעות לסרטן השד בדיוק הסתיים, אבל המודעות הזו צריכה להישאר איתנו לאורך כל השנה.

אני מתרגשת לפתוח את #מודעותכלהשנה לסרטן השד עם יאנה ולשתף אתכם פרק שקרוב לליבי ואני מאמינה שחשוב לכל אשה באשר היא אשה ולכל גבר שהוא אבא/אח/מנהל/קולגה (כולכם, כן?) לשמוע.

 

בשיחה שמחה-עצובה ונוגעת דיברנו על המסע של יאנה מהרגע שבו האדמה נשמטה מתחת לרגליה כשהיא גילתה גידול בשד בזמן החודש השלישי להריון, על תהליך ההתמודדות המורכב והארוך והמעבר הסופי ממחלימה לחולמת, שמעבירה את המסר שלה הלאה בהרצאות ומיזמים ייחודיים ומעוררי השראה.

פרק 78 - ירדן קאופמן CEO ודניאל שפיגל COO של Unika

איך זה מרגיש להקים סטארטאפ ביחד כזוג חברות?

 

בשיחה כייפית דיברנו על הקשר בין הרקע של שתיהן כספורטאיות בעבר ליזמות שהן היום, על הכלים שהן רכשו בדרך והשרירים המנטליים שמשותפים לשני התחומים, על הדרך בה הן פועלות כזוג יזמות חברות והתכונות המשלימות שלהן שיוצרות צוות מנצח, ועל הכח של הקשבה לכל עובד כאינדיבידואל ושימוש במתנות וחוויות אישיות כערוץ תקשורת עמוק יותר בין העובדים למעסיקים.
