Good morning, stranger ✨


​View in browser

Unlike many others, my coaching journey didn’t begin in a classroom.

It began with dirt trails, sunrises, and unexpected clarity.

Back in South Africa, I started going for a walk every single day. One day turned into two… which turned into a habit… which turned into a non-negotiable.

Today marks Day 1888 of #walkingeverydamnday.

And while those walks once included giraffes, zebras, and the occasional wildebeest (yep, really), these days, my wildlife encounters look a little different.

In Canada, I’m more likely to come across dog walkers, early risers, and people deep in conversation with a friend or their podcast.

But one thing remains: the simple power of saying “Good morning”.

Sometimes that’s it. Just a smile. A nod.
But sometimes, that tiny moment opens a door.
A stranger stops. We chat. We walk a little further together.
And suddenly, the world feels just a bit more connected.

It reminds me of how safety used to mean don’t talk to strangers.
But growth? Growth often means talking to them anyway.

Coaching is rooted in those kinds of moments when someone chooses to connect. To open up. To walk together for a while.

And it can start with just two words: Good morning.

Your go-to this week 👇🏼

👣 This week, I invite you to try it: offer a genuine “good morning” to someone on your path.

Then hit reply and let me know what happened.

Sometimes the smallest connections hold the biggest impact.

Sending you love from Canada 🇨🇦

View in browser Hi Reader, Last week, I promised I’d walk you through some stories and tips about planning. So, let’s start with a confession: I used to tell myself a very convincing lie… 👉 “I work better under pressure.” It sounded good. It even felt true at times.But here’s the thing... it was rubbish 💩And today, I’ll tell you why it’s time to ditch that belief once and for all. When you’re working solo, you might get away with it. You can leave things to the last minute, ride the...

View in browser Hi Reader, Vancouver Island University recently hosted the BC MBA Games 2025, and the energy was incredible. Hundreds of MBA students from across the province came together to compete, collaborate, and connect. I had the privilege of being part of the organizing committee, a group that worked quietly behind the scenes for months to make it all happen. It was inspiring to be there, to feel the buzz of so many driven students, but it also reminded me of something that reaches...

View in browser Hi Reader, How has your week been? The weather in this part of the world has been a bit chilly lately, and yes, we’ve had our share of rain too ☔️ Perfect days to stay inside, read a book, and be cozy (I'm really good at doing that 😃). It made me think back to our first summer here in Canada, when we spent so many moments out sailing. If there’s one thing sailing has taught me, it’s that you rarely go in a straight line. The wind isn’t always in your favour. You adjust your...
