This year has been brutally hard - a rollercoaster 🎢 of emotions from day one of 2025. This year I learned to be strong although often I felt very weak inside. I‘ve learned to internalize the philosophy of Aikido - taking negative energy and turning it into something positive. It was tough… But at the end it was worth it - for team and all known and unknown heroes behind the curtain. I‘m grateful being a part of such a great team, who values and appreciates each other and with whom we have achieved the impossible! Thanks a lot to the best boss Ulrich Schirm, who taught me not being afraid, when it get dirty 😂💪❤️!
