Five Quick Questions: Nina Bruun

Five Quick Questions: Nina Bruun

1. WHAT’S ON YOUR CURRENT PLAYLIST?

It's quite mixed and changes all the time—I have a peculiar habit of listening to a couple of tracks that I find energizing over and over for a while. At the moment, it's Water and Through the Wire both by Kanye West. But I actually listen way more to podcasts than music.

2. SOMETHING ABOUT YOU THAT PEOPLE WOULD BE SURPRISED TO KNOW?

That I love fishing—both with a speargun and a rod. If that is not work related enough, I would say the fact that my motto is coming from the former Danish national soccer coach Morten Olsen: "You need a goal to score."

3. A RECENT PURCHASE THAT YOU REALLY ENJOY?

A pair of Common Projects sneakers—I want to wear them 24/7. I love the look and feel.

4. WHAT HABIT ARE YOU TRYING TO IMPLEMENT OR GET RID OF AT THE MOMENT?

Meditation—which has been a lifesaver in hard periods of my life. I really want to integrate into my everyday life.

5. A BOOK THAT CHANGED YOU?

No book has ever changed me, but I'm fond of books on entrepreneurship. Shoe Dog, about the co-founder of Nike, is a favorite.
