"My Ultimate Quest"
In my late twenties and early thirties, I was blessed with becoming the father of two boys—a profoundly rewarding experience that taught me invaluable lessons about unconditional love, patience, responsibility, and setting priorities.
Today, my ‘kids’ are grown men, and I couldn’t be prouder of the incredible individuals they’ve become or the strong bond we continue to cherish.
During that same period, I also built a successful career in the corporate world, owning and managing a 40+ employee market research company in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. This experience greatly expanded my understanding of how people from diverse backgrounds can effectively communicate, collaborate, and excel under varying conditions.
It also taught me the importance of fostering an environment where individuals and teams could thrive while maintaining a healthy balance between their professional and personal lives.
By my late thirties, however, life presented me with a series of profound personal challenges. I experienced a divorce while raising two young children, lost a dear friend to cancer, and later endured the devastating loss of a new relationship in a tragic accident.
This period, often referred to as ‘The Dark Night of the Soul,’ left me feeling as though my world had collapsed. I hit rock bottom having to deal with all the lost, and felt as if “I had lost my mind” as well…
When you hit the bottom, there’s only one way to go; Further down, or rise to the occasion and go up. I chose UP. So by losing my mind, I eventually found myself.
This led me to embark on my own transformational ‘Hero’s Journey’—a Quest that completely turned my life around. It became a continuous journey of learning, growth, and self-development.
From this profound experience, I developed a unique methodology to help anyone transform the areas of their life they wish to improve and live with meaning, purpose and impact.
