Hein and Lizette are both highly qualified and talented accountants, living in London.  Lizette decided to give up her career and become a primary care giver to their two children.  Hein worked long hours at his job, became a workaholic and neglected his family emotionally.  He thought that all that was necessary was to provide for his wife and children financially. Since he was away from home so much, his loved ones eventually drifted away from him.  When he felt he was not needed anymore, he started an extramarital affair.  He sought counseling from a professional psychologist, who tried to help him by suggesting that "this is life, marriages break up".  Lizette urged him to see Brink Gardner.  Brink is not a professional counselor, but just told Hein his story.  Hein repented and now the family is all together again.
