Assign header in columns - text aligns below header

I'd like the header text of a column to remain at the top where the text on the next columns flow underneath that header. I want the baseline for the body copy to start on the line underneath the header. Hopefully the attached image illustrates what I'm looking to do

Hi Sandy,

use paragraph formatting Span Columns and set it to All for the headline.

From my German InDesign 2021:

 

See the help page:

Create paragraphs that span or split columns
