Elke vrijdag, voor ik het weekend induik, deel ik mijn gedachten in mijn wekelijkse blog (in het Engels). Dingen die me geraakt hebben, dingen die ik geleerd heb, mensen die ik ontmoet heb, uitdagingen die ik tegenkom, kansen die ik zie, dromen die ik onder woorden probeer te brengen.

I used to compare myself all the time as a dancer, because it was a constant quest of being the best, because contracts were limited. Afterwards as an actress it was […]
In this blog article I do not want to talk about being patient when you link this word with the idea of time. I want to talk about the feeling of being a patient when you relate it to healthcare. I was the moderator of a 2 days conference in Paris on Innovation in Healthcare that made […]
I had a very busy week with many events, so I heard many speakers sharing interesting ideas. One speaker talked about time, how important it is to take the time, and how you have to learn to be patient for the outcomes of some projects as the success will not come overnight. Patience is not […]
