Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 weekend to all my fellow Canadians! It feels strange to be celebrating the Canadian Thanksgiving when the weather’s been so warm, but it’s an amazing time of the year. The leaves are just exploding with vibrant colours right now, and the bugs are mostly gone, making it even more enjoyable to be out in nature. I hope that you all had a great week, and that you took some time to rest and recharge over the weekend. Too often we use the precious weekend time to do all the…

Hello fellow seekers and explorers! 👋🏻👋🏻 I hope that you’ve had an incredible week. My luck turned when I realized I’d caught COVID for the third time. Sigh. It’s feeling like an annual tradition! The good news is that I’m doing okay; each bout seems to be less damaging than the one before it. This is the only area where my wife and I are out of synch; we never get it at the same time.

Hello!! 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻 Me again. I hope you’ve all had an amazing week, recharged on the weekend, and are ready to rip into the new week.

There is a grain of truth to the idea, which is what makes it both so compelling – and so dangerous. It leads to too many people searching…

Hello!! 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻 I hope you’ve all had an amazing week. Or at least, a better week than I had (more on this below!). Sometimes the winds of life blow right in your damn face, and things can feel hard. That’s just the way it is! You don’t need to fight back when it’s like that; it is okay to just weather the storm, wait for the headwinds to pass, and conserve your energy for another day. That was me this week. And that is okay! The storm always passes, and we carry on. Hopefully, you can benefit…

Hey there! As we prepare for the crisp air and colourful palette of autumn, I’m reminded why my logo features a multi-coloured tree. Just like fall is a season for transformation—a time when leaves change their hues and prepare for a new beginning—I help you do the same in your career. Like trees, careers aren’t built overnight; they grow slowly, nurtured by the decisions we make, the goals we set, and the actions we take. You need to establish a strong root system to ensure you are stable…
