					<description><![CDATA[You did everything right. You studied. You worked hard. You built the résumé people told you to build. Degree, internships, late nights, promotions. The quiet promise behind all of it was simple: if you put in the effort, you would eventually gain something that feels like freedom. More autonomy. More room to decide how to live. More control over your time. For a long time that story made sense. Work hard, move up, become free. But for many people today, that promise feels strangely hollow. The ladder is still there, but climbing it doesn’t necessarily lead to the place it once promised. Careers have become less predictable. Work has intensified. Security often feels temporary. You can follow the script perfectly and still end up wondering where exactly that promised freedom is supposed to appear. Which makes a sentence by Toni Morrison feel unexpectedly sharp: »I tell my students, ›When you get these jobs that you have been so brilliantly trained for, just remember that your real job is that if you are free, you need &#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For twenty years, my identity was intertwined with my profession as a journalist—a career that, by its very nature, thrusts you into the spotlight. I embraced this public role wholeheartedly, not just as an individual or a journalist, but as what we called a personal brand. This approach felt not only natural but necessary. Yet, over time, a growing realization dawned on me: perhaps I wasn’t as professional in my journalistic role as I had believed. Journalism, at its core, demands objectivity and detachment. Hanns Joachim Friedrichs, a stalwart of German news broadcasting, famously said that a good journalist «does not ally themselves with a cause, not even a good one.» This principle was one I inadvertently challenged throughout my career. My deep interest in people, their stories, and their causes led me to form connections that, in hindsight, have clouded my journalistic integrity.
