4 - Politics for newcomers with Eileen O'Sullivan

Eileen O'Sullivan is Deputy Mayor of the city of Frankfurt in Germany since 2021. She is a member of the pan-European political party Volt Europa.

We talk about what politics is like for a newcomer. What are the challenges of creating change? What surprised her about politics. How is being a politician perhaps similar to being a parent. How to set boundaries, separate politics from the rest of life, and gain some peace of mind. And Eileen shares a message for those who wonder whether they are right for politics.

politicwise - politics meets personal development
politicwise is where politics meets personal development.
It’s for those who want to make a difference in the world out there, while working on themselves: being the change they want to see. It’s for learners, beginners, the open-minded.
I bring together an eclectic mix of political leaders, scientists and change-makers to discuss the daily challenges of political leadership and the mindsets, tools and routines to thrive in politics.
