In this podcast interview with Kein Applaus, Golda openly shares her challenges and triumphs, starting with her exciting but anxiety-filled debut at the Paris Opera. She reflects on the difficulties of singing in a foreign language and how it exacerbates stage fright, especially when unsure if she is convincingly reaching the audience in their native tongue.

Golda's narrative takes us on an emotional journey through her career, from her first performances in Germany, where she sang in German despite language barriers, to her experiences with "Fainting Goat Syndrome" – a humorous term for her unique way of dealing with the immense fear and pressure of stage performances.

Golda's insights are complemented by the thoughts of co-host Boris Beimann, who emphasizes the importance of empathy, coping strategies, and the significance of accepting one's emotions. The episode paints a picture of how personal resilience is built and how one learns to deal with the internal and external challenges of an artistic career.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in opera, overcoming stage fright, and the power of human resilience. Golda Schultz's stories and insights offer an inspiring perspective on the complex emotions artists experience on and behind the stage.
