Ep 20 Ingo Vauk - In Every Chase Is an Element of Addiction.

The Marketing Marriage

Every marriage needs love, mutual respect…and a therapist. Ours is no exception. With a fresh year ahead of us and many setting resolutions for a more balanced and meaningful life, we found it fitting to invite our “shrink”. Not to worry, we won’t air (too much) of our own dirty laundry on this episode. Ingo Vauk, a psychotherapist working with people from all walks of life in his private practice in a small German town of Erlangen, shares how focus on the congruence between what you feel and what you do led him to a pivot in his career a couple of decades ago. Hailing from the music industry where he wrote, produced, and recorded for a large number of artists first in Sydney then London, toured with some iconic bands of the time, and even remixed one of David Bowie’s tracks, Ingo talks about the importance of listening, parallel processing and vulnerability. We also discuss why the chase often doesn’t deliver the promise and how regrets are mere illusions of what could happen. Do you want to know what it takes for a therapist to “fire” a client? You gotta listen till the end.
