This year, Dr. Luise Berger and her daughter Eleonora had the honor of participating as exclusive speakers and sharing their inspiring stories and experiences.

The event began with an inspiring discussion in which Dr. Luise Berger and Eleonora Berger shared deep insights into their lives and careers. One of the most moving questions was directed at Dr. Luise Berger, who was asked: “Many women often take a back seat when they have children. What motivated you to stay active, even when Eleonora was very young? What was your daily life like back then?”

Dr. Luise Berger said that her passion for her work and her love for her daughter motivated her to stay active. She emphasized the importance of organization and support in order to succeed both as a mother and as an entrepreneur. “It wasn’t always easy, but my family’s support and a well-thought-out daily schedule helped me achieve my goals,” she explained.

When asked , “How did people outside my circle react to this double burden?” Dr. Berger spoke candidly about the expectations and pressure she faced from society and her professional circle. She emphasized that criticism and challenges made her stronger and motivated her to work even harder. “Expectations were high, but I’ve learned to use criticism constructively and not let it hold me back,” she said.

Eleonora Berger also shared some personal insights when she was asked: “Eleonora, after your high school graduation ceremony, you opened up on social media about how, despite getting top grades on your Abitur, your time in school wasn’t easy for you. What exactly happened?” She spoke openly about the pressure and high expectations that led to significant stress. Eleonora emphasized how important it is to prioritize mental health and seek support. “Despite my good grades, high school was a challenge. The pressure was enormous, and I’m grateful for the support of my family and friends,” she explained.

One of the most inspiring stories came from Dr. Luise Berger, when she was asked , “Luise, what decision in your life required the most courage and had the greatest positive impact on your life?” She spoke about the turning point in her career when she decided to open her own practice. That decision wasn’t easy, but it brought her the greatest professional fulfillment and success. “It was a bold decision, but it steered my life and career in the right direction,” she said.

Dr. Luise Berger also shared valuable advice for aspiring founders and entrepreneurs. When asked , “Luise, what are your top three tips for founders and entrepreneurs? How do you build a brand that’s successful in the long term?” she offered three key tips:

1. Vision and Passion: "A clear vision and passion for what you do are crucial to long-term success."
2. Networking and Support: "Building a strong network and seeking support from mentors and like-minded people are essential."
3. Perseverance and flexibility: "The path to success is often fraught with challenges. It's important to show perseverance and respond flexibly to change."

Another profound question was: “What does success mean to you, and what is the most important piece of advice you would like to give people?” For Dr. Luise and Eleonora Berger, success means realizing one’s full potential while leading a fulfilling and balanced life. They emphasized the importance of self-acceptance and continuous learning. “Success is defined not only by professional achievements, but also by personal satisfaction and the desire to have a positive impact on others,” explained Dr. Berger.
