In the late 1970s, Bhagwan Shree's mother turned to Rajneesh and in 1979 moved with her daughter to his ashram in Poona .

From 1986 to 1989, Wulff-Bräutigam studied German and journalism at the Free University of Berlin . This was followed by two years as a trainee at an Austrian specialist magazine for the tourism industry. From 1992 to 1998 she was an editor in local studios for RTL Television and SAT.1 and a freelance writer for a film production company. This activity included stays in India, Hong Kong and Miami.

Since then she has produced numerous reports for West German radio and television stations of the RTL Group and ProSiebenSat.1 Media . Other productions are episodes of various docu-soaps and several factuals for the series Day X - My Life Afterwards by ZDFneo and Aktenzeichen XY ... unsolved - Special - Where is my child? .

criticism

Wulff-Bräutigam produced several episodes of the series People Up Close for Westdeutscher Rundfunk . It turned out that in the programs Heimliche Liebe (2014), Liebe ohne Zukunft (2016) and Ehe aus Vernunft (2019), two protagonists were won over by an appeal on the Internet platform "Komparse.de". In addition, one of the true stories described differed from one another in some cases in terms of the presentation and statements. The broadcaster then ended its collaboration with Wulff-Bräutigam and announced that the editorial team would expand the application of the four-eyes principle and counter research and specify their criteria for the search for protagonists. Wulff-Bräutigam told the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung that she did not know that one should not look for protagonists by calling "Komparse.de". You do not see yourself alone, but also the editorial staff of the WDR is responsible. The editor-in-chief of television of the WDR, Ellen Ehni , saw editorial failures in the editor, who had overseen all three of Wulff-Bräutigam's objectionable articles, but wanted to hold on to her.
