In this episode I ask Dad whether he believes life is fair or unfair. He reflects on the many opportunities life has given him and explains that we also have to be fair to life by recognizing and taking those opportunities when they appear.

He shares that he has never really asked himself “Why does this happen to me?” even during very difficult moments, including when he was diagnosed with cancer. His perspective is simple: some things in life can happen to anyone.

Looking back, he says that all in all he believes life has been fair. It’s a thoughtful conversation about gratitude, resilience, and the mindset that shapes how we experience the ups and downs of life.

In this episode I ask Dad about the difference between knowledge and experience. He explains why a good education is an important foundation, but why real understanding often comes from experience — especially when it comes to working with people and navigating the human side of business.

We also talk about how times have changed. Dad reflects on how today less hands-on experience is often required, particularly in management roles, and how success now depends much more on personality, communication, and self-awareness. It’s a thoughtful discussion about learning, leadership, and adapting to a changing world.

In this episode I ask Dad whether change or regret causes greater pain in life. He reflects on his career and personal journey, sharing that he has very few regrets and has learned to live with the pain that comes from them. When it comes to change, he explains that it was rarely painful — in fact, change often pushed him forward and brought more growth and happiness.

It’s a thoughtful conversation about courage, perspective, and choosing movement over standing still, even when it feels uncomfortable.

In this episode I ask Dad about the difference between being alone and feeling lonely. He talks about the value of spending time with yourself, especially in stressful phases of life, and how learning to be comfortable on your own can bring clarity and strength.

We also reflect on how the younger generation often fears being alone and constantly seeks distraction. That leads into a broader conversation about work ethic, patience, and how attitudes toward effort and responsibility have changed over time. It’s an honest and thoughtful discussion about self-reflection, balance, and what it really means to feel fulfilled.

In this episode I ask Dad about his plans for the new year. He talks about wanting to travel more, spend time with his oldtimer, and say yes to more moments that bring excitement. He also shares that he wants to chase new adventures like visiting airshows, getting into the world of flying, and maybe even doing a bit of flying himself someday.

It’s a hopeful and energizing conversation about new beginnings, rediscovering old passions, and trying things just because they spark joy and curiosity.

In this episode I ask Dad where his passion for cars — especially Porsche — began. He shares how that fascination was first sparked and how it grew over the years. Along the way, he tells funny and memorable stories about the cars he’s owned throughout his life, from early models all the way to his dream car, a Porsche 964.

It’s a lighthearted and nostalgic conversation about passion, dreams, and the joy of carrying childhood fascinations into adulthood.

In this episode I ask Dad where his love for music truly began — and it takes us through some of his favorite chapters of life. He talks about being a teenager trying to play guitar (even though, as we both admit, neither of us has any real musical talent), and how his years in the United States and Brazil opened his ears to completely new styles and rhythms.

We also talk about our shared love for country music and laugh about the coincidence that we recently listened to almost the same songs without knowing it. Even “Whiskey in the Jar” by Metallica came up — definitely on the harder side for both of us.

It’s a warm, nostalgic conversation about how music shapes you, even when you can’t play a single chord properly.

In this episode, probably the funniest one so far, I ask Dad about his favourite memories with our family. He shares hilarious stories from my baby years — like the time I peed on him — as well as unforgettable family vacations. From me eating an entire red snapper in Cyprus or a trip to Madeira with adrenaline-filled drives around the island that almost ended with a burnt clutch, it’s a conversation full of laughter, nostalgia, and the chaos that makes family life so special.

It’s a joyful reminder of the moments that stay with us forever and the stories that make a family unique.

In this episode I ask Dad what having fun looked like in his childhood — long before screens and smartphones. He shares stories about stealing lilacs from gardens, playing endless games of soccer, and riding his bike everywhere with his friends. He also talks about building a homemade cannon just for the thrill of it, and the short-lived attempt to start a band together.

It’s a playful and nostalgic conversation about simple joys, childhood freedom, and the kind of adventures that stay with you for a lifetime.

In this episode I ask Dad what dating was like when he was young — long before smartphones and social media. He tells stories about the disco era, Saturday Night Fever, dancing the Disco Fox, and going out for milkshakes on Saturday nights.

We talk about what dating meant back then — the excitement, the nerves, and the effort it took to actually meet someone and ask them out. It’s a fun and nostalgic conversation about youth, confidence, and how dating has changed (and in some ways, hasn’t) over the years.
