Embark on Anke Herrmann's inspiring journey from life behind the Berlin Wall to empowering dog owners worldwide. Discover her quest for freedom, resilience in adversity, and the transformative power of following one's passions.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Anke grew up in East Germany behind the Berlin Wall, where freedom was severely restricted. She felt like a "big parrot in a tiny cage", unable to travel or make her own choices. 
  • After leaving East Germany, Anke realised that freedom in West Germany was not as perfect as it seemed from the outside. However, she still valued the autonomy to make her own choices without government interference.
  • Anke moved to Spain to work for herself and have the freedom to follow her passions, even starting a dressmaking business out of pure interest.
  • Now Anke advocates for dogs through her Soul Touched by Dogs project, celebrating the human-canine connection. This allows her to do meaningful work on her own terms.
  • To Anke, freedom means "having an idea and being able to make it happen". It's about autonomy over her life path rather than material possessions.

BEST MOMENTS 

"Freedom isn't having the tropical island and luxury. It's about freedom of creative expression."

"In East Germany everything was guided, they treated you like toddlers."

"I wanted autonomy. I didn't want to watch some big company be steered in the wrong direction." 

"Freedom to me means having an idea and being able to make it happen."
