Work Life Balance at Lake Wörthersee

Work-life balance on Lake Wörthersee is not an empty phrase, but a tangible reality. Like for example through the BUSINESSBEACH in Velden.

The following is the story of a great Carinthian start-up that perfectly describes the ingenious conditions for this equilibrium of work and quality of life at Lake Wörthersee.

Bali-lifestyle with work-life balance at Lake Wörthersee

Susanne Kos and Sabine Springenschmidt work through the summer because their international web store for thought power jewelry never takes a break. Luckily, however, that's exactly what BUSINESSBEACH Velden on Lake Wörthersee is for, allowing them to easily combine work and pleasure. Just like they are used to in Bali...

Two Carinthian women meet in Bali...

The two Carinthian women Susi and Bine have spent ten years of their lives on the Southeast Asian island and even met there. Susi had a diving boat and Bine a surf-yoga-bike resort called Chillhouse. The usual stuff.

Power of thought with a good purpose

Behind the scenes of the tropical paradise, however, there is still a lot of poverty. Women, in particular, usually have little chance in the job market. So Susi and Bine founded the "Women of Bali Project" to give these women the chance to earn their own income. Since then, a network of skilled and fairly paid "Working Home Mums" in Bali has been crafting beautiful jewelry with THOUGHTFULNESS. Because: "Each of our jewelry pieces has a meaning for the wearer. A goal that she or he has set and wants to be reminded of. That's where we come in," say the two working mums from Lake Wörthersee, outlining their basic idea.

Successful online business

Today the webshop www.gedankenkraft.shop runs practically by itself and large companies order already times 7,000 pieces of the thought strength volume for their coworkers and customers. The way here was far and led not only from Bali back to Kärnten but also over many, many fair appearances finally to the goal.

You may get the girl out of Bali, but you'll never get Bali out of the girl.

But the two successful founders do not let themselves be stressed. They also live out their Bali lifestyle in Carinthia. And where better than at the Wörthersee?

"In the morning we go to yoga in Pörtschach and then it's off to the . BUSINESSBEACH in Velden, where we then go through the orders or discuss the organization of one of our new GLITZERPARTYS." Reports Susi of her daily work routine. "But sometimes a business brunch on a lakeside terrace gets in the way," Bine interjects and beams. In the afternoon, a little SUP session and when a hard day's work comes to an end, sometimes a tropical cocktail in one of the beach clubs is in order.
