逆行人生 FIND MY WAY

这期节目，我邀请了很多老听众都很熟悉的朋友——丸子里里。我们认识已经十多年了。从刚开始自由职业、环球旅行，到后来一起住在杭州，再到如今，一个在柏林，一个在大理，我们几乎见证了彼此过去十年的人生变化。这一次再聊天，她的人生又进入了一个新阶段：一个自由职业十年、热爱环球旅行、享受高度自由生活的人，在没有计划的情况下，迎来了人生最大的变量——怀孕。说实话，我挺意外的。这一期，我们没有讨论要不要生孩子，也没有聊育儿经验。更多是在聊，从怀孕后第一次真正理解职场女性面临的压力，到男女进入父母角色节奏的不同。聊到最后，我们都觉得，人其实会不断推翻过去的自己。很多曾经坚信的事情，会因为新的身份和人生体验，而拥有新的答案。【时间线】02:05 从自由职业到怀孕，人生突然进入「Hard 模式」03:34 怀孕之后，工作为什么反而比以前更拼？08:59 第一次真正理解，职场孕妇为什么这么难11:26 生孩子，会影响创业吗？13:52 AI让效率变高，也让工作越来越多？17:13 怀孕之后，对亲密关系有哪些新的理解？20:16 为什么女性总是比男性更早进入父母角色？30:23 爱情之外，婚姻更像是一场长期合作37:02 我们为什么开始每个月开一次家庭会议？44:58 怀孕之后，才真正开始理解女性主义50:58 《后悔当妈》：为什么母亲也应该拥有表达痛苦的权利？【嘉宾介绍】丸子里里，10年不上班，毕业即游荡，从背着尤克里里周游世界，到带着音乐去旅行，在街头找陌生人唱歌，拍摄沙发客旅行纪录片，创立尤克里里品牌，正在努力成为一名独立音乐人。人生理想是在喜欢的地方，和喜欢的人，做喜欢的事。【主播】林安，多平台内容创作者。26岁辞去全职工作，自由职业至今。做过摄影师、自由撰稿人，出过一本书《只工作，不上班》，也创过业。兴趣很多，人生很长，所以干脆拿来探索。目前德国留学二创中。

2.5 years ago, Zara chose entrepreneurship over a job offer. 2.5 years later, she chose to shut her company down. Surprisingly, she doesn't regret either decision.In this episode, I sat down with Zara, the former co-founder of Amendio. The company raised over €215,000 in public funding, won several startup awards, and spent years building a product designed to make home repairs more accessible through remote expert guidance.Eventually, the team made one of the hardest decisions: they shut the company down. But this conversation isn't really about failure. It's about what happens after you've spent years building something from nothing, what entrepreneurship teaches you that no classroom ever could, and why Zara still believes she'd make exactly the same decision all over again.If you've ever wondered what building a startup in Germany actually looks like, from funding and bureaucracy to uncertainty, resilience, and starting over, this episode is for you.About ZaraZara, former co-founder of Amendio. Originally from Tajikistan, Zara came to Germany to pursue her MBA. Her business idea came from a university entrepreneurship project, later evolved into a funded startup supported by both the Berlin Startup Scholarship and the EXIST Startup Grant.After closing Amendio, she joined a German technology company as a Senior Strategic Development Manager, bringing the lessons from entrepreneurship into her new role.Timeline01:35 Zara's background and why she chose Germany for her MBA03:10 Why she started a company instead of looking for a job04:41 What Amendio was and the problem it wanted to solve06:50 Why customer interviews became the foundation of the business09:11 The biggest challenges of building a startup in Germany12:20 Why having a German co-founder made a huge difference17:33 Registering a company in Germany: UG vs. GmbH20:40 What the team focused on before officially launching22:20 Why Amendio eventually shut down24:38 Raising more than €215,000 through public funding29:36 Do investors favor certain founders and industries?35:13 Why Zara doesn't see closing the company as failure38:49 From founder to Senior Strategic Development Manager40:25 How German employers view entrepreneurial experience42:45 Advice for aspiring foundersFollow ZaraLinkedIn: Zarangez MuminovaFollow Ann Lin Instagram: ann_lin66YouTube: Ann Lin
