Khe Hy: Finding joy through trusting your gut

Khe Hy decided early in life to earn his way out of some of his childhood insecurities. He went through many harsh routines to achieve. And they "worked." He went on to be very successful in Wall Street as a Managing Director at Black Rock. Yet, he still felt the same nagging feeling inside from childhood. To start to change that feeling required something uncomfortable. He had to get in touch with his emotions and trust even the subtle ones he'd often ignored.
