About the speaker

MYSTERY – Don't explain your art (of life)
As a creative person, an artist, a freelancer or digital nomad many of us have faced
situations where our work or even our whole lifestyle has been questioned by someone.
The way we make a living often remains a mystery to people that have a different concept
of work or life and sometimes it even scares them. Never feel pressured to explain
yourself! Be a little bit mysterious and soon you'll be happier and also more successful.

About Jana
Jana graduated from drama school in Berlin/Germany in 2012. Since then she has
been working as an actress on stage, film and TV. She also does voice-overs, radio
journalism, writes theatre plays as well as comedy for TV series and stage - last but
not least - she is a qualified hospital clown with magician skills! Jana turned her
passion for entertainment into her job on many different levels and while she was
doing this she worked on her bachelor's degree at the University of Cologne with the
two majors „Linguistics & Phonetics“ and „African Languages, Cultures & History“. All
these different experiences made her find a unique link between them by founding a
company in Namibia which is focusing on children's entertainment: The Fun Factory
Namibia.
