I met my guest on today's show, Ms. Ana Tajder @anatajder, when I was featured on her award-winning podcast, Thank You Mama. I loved being a part of the show, and being able to share the lessons I learned from my mom, Weronika. Ana was such a gracious host, I knew I needed to have her guest on my show as well! Today's the day, I get to share her story.
Ana was born in Zagreb, Croatia. When bombs reached Zagreb in 1991, she fled to Vienna, where she graduated with an MBA and collected extensive work experience in diplomacy, marketing, and advertising. She's an author, her first novel “From Barbie to Vibrator” was published in Croatia in 2008 and Austria in 2009. In 2010, she was awarded the prestigious “Austrian State Grant for Literature” for “Titoland.” The book received extensive media coverage and was nominated for various awards.
Ana writes for German, Austrian and Croatian newspapers and magazines and is finishing a Ph.D. in Sociology about singles and capitalism. In 2020, Ana launched her podcast “Thank You, Mama” in which she interviews women from all over the world about the most valuable lessons they learned from their mothers. In the same year, her podcast won the Hermes Creative Award and the dotCOMM Award.
On today's show, Ana discusses growing up in a communist and capitalist Yugoslavia, how she started her award winning podcast, Thank You Mama, how you can have different attitudes towards language and culture depending on where you go to school, why writing in foreign languages can be scary and freeing, advice for aspiring writers whose first language is not English and embracing the characteristics of different languages.
