Writing and continually searching for and finding the other beyond the horizon has been the foundation of my activities for many years. Exploring consciousness and social change in all its depth, asking the appropriate questions that are rarely asked, and finding answers that lie outside the norm, however provisional they may be, searching for a basis for explanation and finding it again and again... that has driven me for over 30 years.

True cross-disciplinarity (not cherry-picking because it suits me best), holistic, strategic, with a top-down perspective, recognizing, interpreting, and communicating the connections and backgrounds. Recognizing complexity and engaging it in a comprehensible and understandable way through explanation. These continue to be my approaches to writing, which also has a mediating function for me—regardless of the form of publication I choose. It is the freedom of thought that is inherent in my being and that I have consistently lived for years.

My long and extensive academic career still helps me today. It encompasses everything that goes with it: two doctorates – one in economics; another in military science, with a focus on military security technology; a habilitation in military science, Venia Security Theories – still the only woman in the German-speaking world, and an extraordinary honorary professorship, with a focus on military security technology; various leadership roles in higher education, including conceptual work, and as a freelancer, repeatedly as the first woman to do so.

My academic background allows me a well-founded, comprehensible, and solid approach. It gives me the inner space to venture into areas that one might not necessarily associate with science at first glance. Cross-disciplinarity, holistic, strategic, with a top-down perspective, recognizing, interpreting, and mediating the connections and backgrounds.

After my academic career had become too narrow for me, no longer allowing me to pursue cross-disciplinary approaches, I decided to leave the field and embark on a transition marked by a profound search for the meaning of life. This requires courage, curiosity, discipline, dedication, trust in life, and the willingness to move forward without so-called safety railings.

I always wanted to look at things from multiple perspectives, analyze them, interpret them, and communicate them. Because there are always multiple viewpoints that show us the bigger picture, no matter where we look in life.

Therefore, the combination of strategy, philosophy, spirituality, neuroscience, quantum science, consciousness research, and music—what makes it easier for us to interpret the New Age—has become second nature to me. To this end, I continually inform myself in order to offer new answers to burning questions on an individual and collective level.

The answers to complex questions can come from these fields without being arbitrary. We must not have any reservations about this. However, we must also not naively settle for immediate answers. The critical, questioning element permeates all my work—regardless of how I present it.

It is the familiar exploration, discarding, revisiting, and further exploration.

That takes courage and the spirit of a pioneer who is able to connect threads. Fortunately, that has been my lifelong gift. Am I always right about that? That's not a category for me. I'm concerned with the advancement of knowledge and my socially relevant contribution—especially in the new era, which still holds many unknowns for us.

The fact that I don't have to conform to expectations today, as a person, as an author, or as a scientist, and that I consistently follow my own path, makes it much easier for me.

My motto: Live the original freely.
