“This was one of the most profound experiences of my life. The experience was analogous with peeling away the layers of an onion. This forced deep introspection – something that I hadn’t done for a very long time – which created an unbelievable level of renewed self awareness. . . I left a far more complete and better human being than when I arrived.” – Dolf Van Der Brink, CEO, Heineken USA
