Ancestral Line of Hurt - a deep chat with author Machiel Hoek
As a young boy, Machiel Hoek didn't understand the world. Why was there so much suffering? Why was he bullied at school for being himself? At 7, he decided he wanted to discover the secret of life. Since then, he has read over 2,000 books, dealing with every approach (including all religions and spiritual paths). But in daily life, he pursued the established path of school and university and became a CPA, then an entrepreneur, then a CEO. Machiel learned the dynamics of business and business life. At some point, a large sum of money was waiting for him if he stayed on for just two more years. "Well, two more years, and I can finally go on the quest to discover this secret of life," he thought. But at that moment, his heart kicked in and told him: "Nope, you have to do it NOW, or you will NEVER do this.” By listening to his heart, the bag of money would disappear. Machiel knew his heart was right; the only good moment for change was now. So Machiel complied with his heart, changed his entire life, and went on a quest to discover the secret of life, this time through his own experiences rather than reading books. He made it his goal to write “the book”, combining all that he had experienced and what he still would learn in a single story that would be compelling, engaging, and insightful for as large a group of people as possible. He wanted it to be the book he would have wanted to read when he was young(er) Now, through his bestselling book "The Girl Who Changed The World", Machiel helps others find their secret to life. His journey is not without hurdles. He was actually arrested in Los Angeles for giving away copies of his book!
