🦋 The time to act is now. Take this step for yourself, your team, and your mission. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together!

Tomorrow, the official HHH Kick-off of our Holistic Healthy Habits programme. We would like to personally invite you once again to join us for this opening event. 🌿

HHH is a structured programme for women in life transitions — developed together by Women Lead Community, Action for Happiness German-speaking Hub for Action for Happiness German-speaking Hub Germany, the Yippie Community and Leadership Associates, and co-funded by the European Union.

Healthy habits. Holistically designed. The programme consists of 13 modules and focuses on small steps toward sustainable habit-building in different areas of life. It has been developed and is accompanied by experts from our communities, who bring their knowledge, experience and warmth into the programme.

It is about learning with women who support one another — with real life in mind.

Tomorrow’s kick-off is open to all interested women. If you are still considering signing up for the pilot programme, you are warmly welcome to simply join us on Zoom tomorrow, listen in and ask your questions.

I look forward to seeing you tomorrow — and please feel free to forward this invitation to women for whom the programme could also be helpful.

In our Info Call this week, we got some good questions about the 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗛𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁𝘀 programme, so we want to clarify some, because maybe you are also wondering the same thing.

Swipe through our carousel, save and share it with women who might benefit from Our programme.

For the ladies with interest we uploaded our Info Call on our YouTube channel, where you can use captions in different languages if you’d like to follow along in another language.

In this Info Call we spoke about the programme, how it is build and for whom, had also a Q&A debate and gave a small preview of the programme outlay on the platform.

If you have other questions or doubts, please write to us, we will be happy to help.

𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗛𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁𝘀 is a partner project by Women Lead Community, Action for Happiness German-speaking Hub, Yippie Community and Leadership Associates, co-funded by the European Union.

Programme is full of small sustainable steps and with real life in mind.

In this episode of 𝗩𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗯𝗹𝘂𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿, we Gabriele Presslinger-Bukovica and Angelika Pohnitzer, talked with our hosts Alexandra Reis and Bettina Dworatzek about navigating big changes in life — without losing ourselves along the way.

We spoke about transformation, stillness, values, small habits, and the kind of support that helps us feel grounded again when life feels uncertain.

We also shared a first glimpse into our emerging programme 𝗛𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗰 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝘁𝗵𝘆 𝗛𝗮𝗯𝗶𝘁𝘀 — a holistic learning and community programme for women in phases of change.

And at the end, we steped into the “power shoes” and ask:
What could become possible if we brought more awareness, more love, and less fear into the world? ✨

A heartfelt conversation about change, courage, inner grounding, and healthy habits that truly support us.

What makes this retreat different from so many other retreats or business events?

It is not built around the idea that you need to be fixed on a certain outcome.

The 𝐖𝐋𝐂 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭: " 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐂𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐩 2026" near Vienna begins somewhere else: with slowing down, reconnecting to yourself, and stepping out of the pressure to constantly move on to the next thing.

This is not a retreat about doing more in less time. It is about regeneration, clarity, meaningful connection, inspiration, and courageous next steps that emerge from inner alignment rather than pressure.

We are shaping this retreat through co-creation.
We are not forcing outcomes, yet creating the conditions for what is already waiting beneath the noise to become visible.

This is what makes the retreat different!

If you know how it feels to be in spaces that expect you to perform instead of breathe, you feel the difference immediately.

Women are on the verge of becoming (or already are) the stewards of an enormous share of global wealth—yet so many of us still default to “keeping money safe” in a bank account.
Women are on the verge of becoming (or already are) the stewards of an enormous share of global wealth—yet so many of us still default to “keeping money safe” in a bank account.

But here’s the thing: 𝐬𝐚𝐟𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐪𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞.

A few reflections that keep coming up in conversations:
➡️Many of us grew up without role models for investing (or even for having full financial agency).
➡️Confidence gaps are real: men often assume “I can,” while women, just as capable, hesitate.
➡️Time, energy, and unpaid care work shape what feels possible.
➡️Entrepreneurship is often about flexibility and identity, not just money.
➡️We tend to undervalue our expertise and overestimate risk.

If you want a simple, low-drama starting point, diversified investing (e.g., broad ETFs) is often discussed as a lower-risk approach—especially with a 5+ year horizon.

And the real unlock? Habits. Make it easy. Automate. Repeat

Thank you again to all the women who joined and our guests who gave unique input on the topic: Maria Reid, Evelyn Fisher (Kalcher), Romina Kuppen.

We would love to keep this conversation going: Where do you go for clear, trustworthy information about investing? And would you be interested in regular gatherings to learn/share together?
