A few personal thoughts

My dears,

Today I'd like to write a slightly different blog post than usual. I want to share a bit of my thoughts with you. This blog post is therefore intended more for private readers than for companies.

Most of you see Flo smiling, always ready with a witty retort. But a lot has really happened in my life since 2019. I've basically gone from one life challenge to the next. There have been many moves and many new beginnings. I've distanced myself from some people and constantly tried to set clear boundaries for myself.

Why I keep some things private

In recent months, there has been a great deal of interest in my life... I am quite aware of that. At the same time, I have kept many private matters private all these years . And that will continue to be the case.

Over the past weeks and months, I've received questions and messages about my activity and content. Of course, many people are now watching, which I'm happy about. Nevertheless, I would like to ask you to accept and respect the fact that I deliberately keep certain things private.

I know that family members, relatives, colleagues, acquaintances, and friends also read this. And even among these wonderful people, there might be question marks because I don't share everything publicly. But I've had experiences in my life that have shaped me. And for me, it simply feels right to keep some things to myself.

Perhaps you can imagine it a bit like a diary with a lock.

I would therefore like to refrain from discussing speculation, theories, or assumptions made by others.

Time for myself

Yesterday, Saturday, I was in Hamburg and took another day off. I've been doing this regularly for a while now, and it does me a world of good. Spending time with people who are good for me. People with whom I don't have to be productive. People with whom only the present moment matters and time seems to stand still, even if just for a little while.

For the past five and a half years, I've basically just been functioning for others, completely neglecting my own well-being. That ends in 2026.

Driver's license

On Friday, March 6th, I had my first motorcycle lesson at the Sander driving school in Buxtehude. From 11:00 to 12:00, the instructor explained the motorcycle to me. Then, from about 12:00 to 12:40, we practiced the basics for the first time.

Pushing the motorcycle, braking, starting, releasing the clutch, body posture, operating buttons, mounting... simply getting a first feel for everything.

Next week I have driving lessons three days in a row: Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.

In parallel, my C & CE theory lessons also start on Monday, so tomorrow... a total of nine days, with a weekend break in between.

So March is all about truck theory and motorcycle practice. If you're still looking for a driving school... you've come to the right place, if you ask me.

Social Media

You may have noticed that I've made some changes on social media. Again, I understand the interest behind it.

But I want to take the time I want and need before I make anything public. And perhaps some things will never be made public.

That's entirely my decision... because ultimately, I don't have to please anyone. And you should also consider that people who are in the public eye – or perceived as public figures on social media – always consciously keep certain parts of their lives private. That's perfectly normal, and it's no different for me.

People who are important to me:

There are people in my life who mean the world to me. My girls, my grandma – and also people I may have only recently met, but who nevertheless hold a special place in my heart.

There are some things that are part of my life that I consciously choose not to communicate publicly. And I want to make it perfectly clear: I don't do this to exclude or keep anyone away.

Sometimes I simply feel like I need to sort certain things out on my own. Or maybe I even want to.

Everyone deals with it differently. For some, it's important to share a lot, to talk about it, and to voice their thoughts. For others—like me at times—it feels more right to keep certain topics to themselves for a while.

I believe there is no right or wrong in this. Everyone should find out for themselves what feels good and right.

When I do share parts of my private life, I'm accompanied by a thought that has become very important to me: The right people stay. They seek conversation, familiar interaction, and honest exchange.

And those who might distance themselves or withdraw from my life may simply have other paths, other issues, or other priorities at this time.

Therefore, "withholding" information is never malicious. Rather, it's my personal way of dealing with things and giving myself the space I sometimes need.

A year of change

2026 will be a year in which I confront many deep inner issues. Issues that I may have been aware of for a long time... but which I've been hesitant to address for various reasons. Perhaps out of convenience. Perhaps out of fear. Perhaps also out of a sense of responsibility.

But I am now ready to face these issues.

And I will do my best to set many changes in motion in my life.

For the sake of my peace.

One last thought

You often read things about people online that may have been true at some point, but are no longer relevant today. Especially in a time when information spreads quickly and remains online for a long time, this sometimes creates a picture that has little to do with current reality.

My life is very fast-paced and characterized by a lot of change. Things change, develop further, or take new directions.

A confidential, personal conversation with me—if I agree to it—is therefore often much more enriching and contributes significantly more to understanding than anything found on the internet. There's always plenty of gossip and rumors out there.

Very best regards
