February 13th, 2009

“I am in my seventh decade, and I am thinking hard about the legacy I want to leave my children, my community and my country. Pursuing the Good Life was a wonderful opportunity for me to engage in conversations with people who are asking the question ‘What ARE the really important things for me to do to really make a difference in the world’”
— Sam Mizrahi

The readings were wonderful and the dialogues were rich—but above all, I enjoyed spending time with the incredible people.”
— Robin Reif
Senior Vice President, Jack Morton Worldwide

“Pursuing the Good Life gave me the opportunity to pause: guided by the wisdom of great thinkers I was able to reflect on my life to date, and think about those things that really matter in the company of a spirited group of like minded people. It was a refreshing time out, and a chance to recalibrate the life decisions I have made.”
— Helmut Meier
Senior Vice President, Booz Allen Hamilton
Duesseldorf, Germany

“Pursuing the Good Life provided me with the opportunity to meet with a group of bright, interesting, and thoughtful people. Each of us was trying to find a practical balance in our lives through our discussions of the challenging reading materials and the specially selected movies. The extraordinary participants in our session were accomplished people who were willing to share their feelings and talk about themselves. I left the seminar with new friends and a sense of well being—more comfortable about myself and more confident about what the future will bring.”
