A Night to Remember: 3 Learnings from Taylor Swift's Zurich Concert

Last night, my wife and I attended Taylor Swift's concert in Zurich, and it was nothing short of magical. The energy, the passion, and the sheer talent on display were overwhelming. But for us, this concert was more than just a night of incredible music; it was a testament to our journey over the past year—a journey marked by resilience, hope, and transformation.

A Year of Transformation

A year ago, our lives were turned upside down. We faced challenges that seemed insurmountable, and our normal life was suddenly disrupted. It was during this difficult time that my wife made a bold decision. She declared that in a year, things would be better for her, and as a symbol of this hope, she decided that we would attend Taylor Swift's concert in Zurich. This concert became her proof point and our beacon of hope that things would improve.

And improve they did. Over the past year, she has worked hard to rebuild her and our lives.Facing the challenges head-on Barbara and I were changing our lives quite disruptively in many aspects (and were rewarded with a MUCH better life in return) supported each other, and never lost sight of our goal. Last night's concert was the first culmination of all these efforts and a celebration of the deep love that unites us and of how far we've come. We still have some miles ahead of us, but we are confident that WE will make it! And so Taylor Swift's concert became a moment of pure joy and a reminder that with determination and hope, anything is possible

3 Lessons Learned from Taylor

Lesson 1: Embrace Passion in Your Pursuits Watching Taylor Swift pour her heart into her performance reminded me of the power of passion. When you truly love what you do, it shows. This kind of dedication is what turns good work into great work, and it’s something we should all strive for in our own careers.

Lesson 2: Resilience Through Adversity Our journey to the concert was a testament to resilience. Overcoming obstacles and pushing through difficult times is never easy, but the reward at the end makes it all worthwhile. This concert was a symbol of our ability to endure and come out stronger on the other side.

Lesson 3: The Importance of Female Leadership The contrast between Taylor Swift’s concert and other events I’ve attended highlighted the need for more female leaders. Women bring a nurturing and inclusive approach that can transform not just workplaces, but entire communities. Taylor’s leadership on stage is a powerful reminder of this potential. Let's all embrace and support this huge untapped female potential in leading in any aspect, no matter if in the corporate world, the political realm or else. I truely believe THIS would change the world to the better.

A Night of Celebration and Reflection

As we left the concert, my wife and I couldn't help but reflect on the past year. We thought about the challenges we had faced, the progress we had made, and the hope that had carried us through.

Attending Taylor Swift's concert was more than just a night out; it was a celebration of our resilience and a reminder of the power of hope and determination. As we move forward, we carry with us the inspiration and joy from that night, ready to face whatever comes next with renewed strength and optimism.

Here's to:

all your journeys to travel, challenges to grow from and successes that await. YOU!

Have fun :-)
