Aflevering #54 | Belén Hein | "Meaningful Connection & Interactions"

#54: The art of meaningful connection! My conversation with Belén Hein unfolded as a quiet exploration of identity, movement and the inner compass that guides us through change. Born in Argentina, shaped by Germany and the United States, and now rooted in Utrecht, Belen carries a life marked by transitions. Those shifts taught her to build home from within and to meet the world with openness and curiosity rather than fear. Belén spent seven years as co-founder of Neurolytics, where she blended psychology, technology and a deep belief in human potential. Leaving her own company was a heartbreak but also a turning point. It led her back to the core of what energizes her: building, aligning teams, turning strategy into action and making workplaces more human through honest interaction.  Her story carries the tension between ambition and loss, motherhood and identity, vulnerability and determination! Deep dive talking points: ???? Building Neurolytics: translating science into a fairer recruitment process; ???? Leaving her startup: grief, clarity and learning to trust the next step; ???? The power of meaningful connections: how her late mother shaped her understanding of presence and care; ???? Tools for inner clarity: writing as reflection and conversations as mirrors; ???? Adaptability across cultures: choosing home and learning to accept what is and what isn’t; Nuggets of empowerment: ???? Clarity rarely arrives by itself. You create it through reflection and honest conversation; ???? Adaptation is not about losing yourself. It is about finding the version of you that meets life as it is; ???? The smallest interactions can carry the biggest impact when you bring presence into them; Belen’s empowering quote: ???? “You can be fine and happy wherever you are. You just have to accept what is and what isn’t” Belén’s journey invites a gentle question: Where in your life can you slow down long enough to really be present with another human being?
