"The internet transformed my life and enabled me to access information and get in touch with professors at top universities from a village in China. I am grateful for all the kind people that helped and supported me along the way. Hope I can help others as well. I have been thinking about what else can the internet and technology and human kindness do to improve other people's lives. I was thinking about creating a product to solve my own struggles early on in my career trying to lead teams and build good relationships with my colleagues and managers, and later realized other people who experience similar struggles can benefit from it too. I love people, learning, technology, dance, and nature. I believe that human potential is unlimited." - Pianpian

“There are a lot of things I have gotten out of this and that was unexpected. I really like how everyone in this group is different. What I think that brings us all together, despite of everyone is different, there’s a trust layer. So I can be honest, and I don’t need to say everything is great. I felt really good, I felt heard, everyone was actually listening. Also the benefit of listening to other people, heard similar experiences from other people.“

"Through this event, it allows me to understand myself better. Every person has different perspectives and different emotions, happy or not happy, or anger, hear different perspectives will help us to learn and see a bigger picture. I would like to get myself better at listening because I believe listening is an important skill for me to connect with myself and others. Everyone is very kind and open up to share their emotions, and allows me to understand all the people better.”

"I have been really challenged to live in the present these two weeks. What I found through the session today is my body is more relaxed through our session, and I feel more present to my physical body, and this is very helpful for me, because I feel more balanced. I probably make better decisions when I feel more balanced.”
