At #IBC 2019, we we're drawn to the art. Pun INTENDED. - Amsterdam has one of the most vibrant and longstanding graffiti culture's in the world, dating back well before pop culture caught wind of the art form during the 70's. Inspired by the city's rich history of fringe art, we had local graffiti artists turn our industrial-themed booth into a street corner canvas fit for any block. - Special thanks to @conciergeamsterdam and Total Area for helping pull this off!

When customers visit, they game in our CEO's office

"I have a genetic predisposition to anxiety. There was a time when things got bad. Poor sleep, always stressed, and getting far too upset over ordinary problems. It carried into my work. I would freeze from the stress. My mind couldn’t hold more than three concepts to solve a simple bug. That’s when I met Dr. Lynn. He taught me about anxiety and the brain. Similar to information pathways in a computer, our brain has synapse pathways that carry our thoughts. The more a thought... fires, the faster a pathway will harden, increasing the thoughts frequency. You can literally program your brain into thought habits. Engineers solve complex, stressful problems all day. If you don’t know how to manage your anxiety, the brain chemistry can imbalance and harden stressful pathways. But, this also means you can reprogram the brain. Everytime I had anxiety, I wrote down the negative, debilitating thought with the counter, positive thought to replace it. I began chipping away at the hardened stressful pathways I developed over the years and created new positive ones. Things slowly got better. My relationship with my wife improved. I performed better at work. I could take on bigger problems and solve them much easier. The journey isn’t over. But now I’m able to slow things down and enjoy life more." (You.i TV Senior Software Developer - Ottawa, ON) - This is the second installment of our Humans of You.i TV series, where we feature our employees sharing their story of mental health. See more
