Wat ik denk en deel in mijn wekelijkse blog

Suyin's vrijdag-gedachten

Ik schreef 405 blogartikels op vrijdag, van 27 maart 2018 tot 26 december 2025.

Voor ik het weekend indook, deelde ik mijn Friday Thoughts. Ik schreef over dingen die me raakten, over wat ik leerde, over de mensen die ik ontmoette, de uitdagingen waarmee ik werd geconfronteerd, de kansen die ik zag, en de dromen die ik in woorden probeerde te vatten. In 2026 bracht ik die droom naar een volgend niveau en creëerde ik mijn talkshow ‘Quintessential Conversations with Suyin Aerts’. Je kan de show beluisteren en bekijken via je favoriete podcastplatform en op YouTube.

Is talent enough to achieve greatness?

What if indifference is the real threat?

As I write this, the fire raging in Los Angeles is yet another reminder of the fragility of our world and the lives within it. It’s hard not to feel overwhelmed by the scale of disasters happening globally—fires, floods, conflicts, and crises. Yet, what troubles me most isn’t just the disasters themselves, but the indifference […]

What if we start the year with a quintessential question?

Do we need to be prepared?

As the year draws to a close, one question has been lingering in my mind: Do we need to be prepared? And if so, how? The geopolitical challenges we face as a world today are more complex than ever. Conflicts are no longer distant—they affect economies, communities, and the way we live and work. This […]

The year in questions

As the year draws to a close, I find myself reflecting not just on what happened, but on the questions that guided me through it all. In entrepreneurship, leadership, and even personal growth, I’ve learned time and again that the quality of the questions we ask determines the clarity of the answers we find. In […]

Making decisions that count

As entrepreneurs, we’re often told to trust our instincts and follow our vision, but how often do we truly base our decisions on the hard figures of our businesses? Too many entrepreneurs struggle to make the right calls because they’re not fully grounded in the data. Without a clear understanding of the numbers—revenue, costs, margins, […]
