In this OMR podcast episode, host Philipp Westermeyer interviews entrepreneur‑turned‑investor Janna Ensthaler. The conversation moves from her daily routine and "golden rules" for balancing work, motherhood and personal time, to the mechanics of her investment work and how she leverages a small team to generate outsized returns. Ensthaler explains why she deliberately avoids large sponsorship deals and prefers to fund her own wardrobe, emphasizing financial efficiency. A large portion of the interview is devoted to her unconventional stance on inheritance: she plans to give her children no automatic wealth, instead fostering drive through sport and personal responsibility, and discusses alternative structures such as foundations. The dialogue then shifts to her role on the TV show "Die Höhle der Löwen", the dynamics among the investors, and the authenticity of the show. Ensthaler shares her political philosophy – a liberal‑conservative outlook wary of state overreach, citing concerns about surveillance, bureaucracy and the legacy of East‑German authoritarianism. She critiques current climate‑policy approaches, arguing that Europe’s aggressive decarbonisation harms its economy while global emissions continue to rise, and calls for pragmatic, real‑political solutions. The episode closes with personal reflections on her bucket‑list, family goals, and a desire to leave the world a little better, ending with a scenic reference to the Lüneburger Heide.
