Ornella Koktová on the verge of burnout: "I skated out of it," she admitted
Ornella Koktová has become known in recent months mainly thanks to the podcast she hosts together with Agáta Hanychová. Their open and often controversial statements arouse emotions, but both do not take criticism too hard. "We can realize our mistake," says the entrepreneur. In the interview, she spoke about her relationship with her husband Josef Kokta, exhaustion on the verge of burnout, and a recent media scandal associated with the rapper Rytmus.
Which woman do you think is the most beautiful in the Czech Republic?
Definitely my daughter Lily, also Táňa president of Miss Czech Republic is beautiful. I think she is a beautiful woman.
Do you think there are already too many artificial women in the Czech Republic?
Yes, that's possible too. There are a lot of plastics these days. For example, I don't even have botox in my forehead. I hope I won't slide into it one day.
Are you considering any enhancements?
No. I also have natural breasts. I even started a company on breast stickers, so I'm good with that. I'm quite afraid of pain, to tell you the truth. So if I ever go for it, maybe only at a more mature age.
Your case with Agáta regarding Rytmus and Jasmina recently occurred. You apologized for it. What led you to do that?
I think every intelligent person should admit when they make a mistake. And it's human to apologize and say "hey, I messed up". I don't see anything wrong with that. Rather, I think that the stupid people are those who fight over some imagined nonsense, and despite knowing that it is nonsense, and they continue to fight over it, that seems off to me.
Did Rytmus or Jasmina contact you somehow?
We were in phone contact with Rytmus, but I think everything is fine now. Even Rytmus himself had various escapades.
Where did you leave Pepa tonight?
Pepa is at home and he is happy to be able to watch his sci-fi series. He doesn't like these events at all, so if we ever go out together, maybe to a film festival. Maybe.
There's a lot of support coming for you from him. How do you perceive that?
I really value Pepa and if anyone were to go after him, I would defend him tooth and nail. We have that mutual feeling. He's amazing.
You used to be a journalist too. Do you plan on going back to that?
I currently have so much work. I basically have four companies, so I'm glad I can spend any time with my kids. It's tough.
How do you manage to balance work and life?
Sometimes I have days when I feel on the verge of burnout, but I can overcome it. I always feel like I have a bout of the flu, that's always when I'm most exhausted. I take one day off and then I go on. I also enjoy my work, so I'm fine.
Have you ever experienced burnout?
No, I’ve managed to avoid it.
