Resilienz: 5 Wege, mit gesundheitlichen Schicksalsschlägen umzugehen

2 October 2026, with Joël Kaczmarek and Andre Bajorat

Summary

This episode is in German.

Joel Kaczmarek talks with Andre Bajorat, a well-known figure in the German fintech scene who works in digital strategy at DWS, about staying resilient after two health emergencies: a sudden cardiac arrest that took bystanders 15 minutes of CPR, and a spinal cord infarction a year later that left him paraplegic. Bajorat describes the flatlined heart rate variability that pushed him into yoga and meditation, why he insists on eye-level conversation with doctors, the difference between compassion and pity, and the accessibility apps he now builds himself with AI.
