2025: How the Jana Talk Project Was Born

01/01/2026

The year 2025 was not just another year on the calendar for me. It was a year of big decisions, stepping out of my comfort zone, overcoming myself — and above all, the year when a long-held dream became a real project. A project that gives my work deep meaning.

For a long time, I struggled with stress, even though it wasn't obvious at first glance. Years of long hours spent sitting at a computer eventually led to a moment when one morning I couldn't even bend down in the bathroom to wash my face. That was when I started to truly address my condition and look for a solution that wouldn't be just temporary, but ideally long-term. And as I began to notice that stress was affecting more and more people around me, it became clear that something had to be done differently.

This is how Jana Talk was born — an inspirational podcast that connects people, stories, and topics that can help all of us live healthier, happier, and more conscious lives.

An Idea That Had Been Growing Inside Me for Years...

Creating a podcast had been on my wish list for a very long time. Even back when I worked in radio, I realized that connecting people and meaningful topics with real impact was something that fulfilled me deeply. Especially during the Covid period, I strongly felt how much people needed inspiration, support, new perspectives, and the reassurance that they were not alone.

Later, when I designed and produced two online shows for the brands Dormeo and Delimano — with the Dormeo project created literally from A to Z — everything became clear. This is my path. Not just marketing, not just content, but meaningful projects that connect, inspire, and truly help people.

And so I finally made the decision. I stopped "just thinking about it" and moved into action.

Jana Talk is for me not "just" a podcast

For me, this project is not only about preparing interviews and recording episodes.
It represents meeting inspiring people from the Czech Republic and from around the world, sharing their stories, experiences, and know-how that can help all of us — in our work, relationships, health, and everyday lives.

I truly believe that everything starts with ourselves. When we work on ourselves, new paths naturally begin to open. And that is exactly what Jana Talk is about.

What is the podcast about?

In the podcast, you can look forward to interviews with experts from a wide range of fields, both from the Czech Republic and abroad. Together, we open topics that touch all of us:

relationships and communication
personal development and self-work
a healthy lifestyle
mental health
inner balance, courage, and authenticity
inspiration from everyday life

The goal is inspiration, understanding, new perspectives, and finding paths that may be different for everyone — yet still functional and meaningful.

2025 in numbers - A few highlights from the podcast

In the year the project was launched, something truly special happened — and I am deeply grateful for it:

Interviews with 52 experts in total (30 from the Czech Republic and 22 from abroad)
80 episodes recorded to date (not all are available on YouTube — some are exclusive to HeroHero)
Over 125,000 views on YouTube
According to Spotify, Jana Talk was ranked as a "marathon show" of 2025, as listeners spent more time listening to it than to 63% of other shows

Where can you find the podcast

You can watch or listen to the podcast:

on YouTube
on Spotify
and also on the HeroHero platform

On HeroHero, you'll find extra episodes, and content is available earlier than on YouTube and Spotify. The basic membership costs 5 €, and by joining, you directly support the creation of new episodes in the coming year — for which I am truly grateful.

New year, new conversations

Today it is January 1, 2026.
A new year. New paths. New challenges ahead.

In the coming period, I am preparing many new inspirational conversations with people I am already very much looking forward to. I believe everyone will find a topic that resonates with them at exactly the right moment.

I wish each of you, in the new year, trust in yourselves, the courage to follow your dreams, and joy in the path you choose — whatever it may be. Because… when else, if not now? :)

Wishing you a beautiful day,
and I look forward to seeing you in upcoming episodes — or perhaps even in person.
