Besides, Caroline thinks there will always be next season to find a husband. However, her family’s dwindling income leaves Caroline with only one choice to secure her future: a one-way ticket to sail with the fishing fleet to India, where the son of a family friend waits.

"Uno strano brusio mi fece svegliare di soprassalto. Era una notte fredda e la pioggia gialla oscurava la finestra. All'inizio pensai che fosse il vento. Ma mi stavo sbagliando.

Zukunftsschmiede 🎙️✨ Seit einigen Jahren bin ich Teil des politischen Betriebs: erst ehrenamtlich, inzwischen als Landtagsabgeordnete für München-Pasing. Und immer stärker spüre ich ein Störgefühl: So wie Politik gerade funktioniert, funktioniert sie nicht mehr. Wir hetzen von Termin zu Termin, sitzen in endlosen Sitzungen – und verlieren dabei das Wichtigste aus dem Blick: ➡️ Was ist eigentlich die Vision für unser Land? Immer öfter habe ich das Gefühl, dass wir nur noch die Gegenwart verwalten, statt die Zukunft zu gestalten. Darum starte ich diesen Podcast als ...

Welcome to Deep Work: Out Loud, The thinking that fuels our life, our work, and our leadership. I'm Julie Harris Oliver. This is the podcast where I sit with another professional coach and we do some work around a single concept, piece of inspiration, a topic we've seen come up in coaching. If we're very lucky, while talking about it, we might demonstrate what coaching might look and feel like. But we'll see how this goes. It's all an experiment.

People think it’s easy being Felix Dodd III, and sure, the legacy and inheritance aren’t exactly terrible. But the name comes with so many strings; my hands feel permanently tied. Like I’m stuck following in my father’s footsteps. Like I can’t trust people’s intentions. Like my grandmother wants me settled down before my thirtieth birthday.

Until it’s not. When I get roped into wedding planning at all the same places Nash is fundraising, I’m ready to blow up our truce. But the more time we spend together, the more I feel like…not murdering him.
