“Change ultimately has to come from within, but what is different about Folef’s WQ program is not only does he open the door to a more fulfilling life, but he takes your hand and guides you every step of this transformational journey. No more excuses, stop talking and start doing.” Andy Jones

“The good thing about the WQ approach is the fact that it provides a cafeteria plan of solutions, tweaks and suggestions from which each individual can make a best fitting selection … for me this results in a sustainable improvement and avoids chasing unreachable goals.“
Philip Wietendaele

“Most of the elements in the programme were more a gentle reminder than a wake-up call, but that actually works best for me.”
Lody Prijs

“When it comes to being successful in sports, talent sets the floor and character sets the ceiling. In business, IQ sets the floor and EQ sets the ceiling. What I like about the WQ program is that it helps us to raise the happiness ceiling in both our personal and professional lives.”
Peter van Rest
