I keep joining new teams… and loving it ⛵️

Hi Reader

Lately, I’ve found myself part of a lot of new teams.

  • 🎓 Our MBA team, navigating assignments, deadlines, and student life together
  • 👥 The Career Studio team at VIU, supporting students as they prepare for their next chapter
  • 🌿 The team organizing the MBA Games 2025—Canada’s largest student-led MBA event
  • ⛵ And yes, even my local sailing co-op, where every trip includes new names, new faces, and the same shared adventure

Different people (and they all start out as complete strangers).
Different energies.
But one thing in common: we all want to get to the same destination.

That’s what I love most about working with teams, whether on land or at sea.

You don’t need to know everyone’s full story.

You just need a shared purpose, a rhythm, and the willingness to move forward together.

Of course, it’s not always smooth sailing (pun intended 🤪).
New groups can feel awkward. You don’t always know where you fit.
But when the goal is clear, connection finds its way in.

So whether it’s creating an unforgettable student experience, crossing a finish line, or just enjoying the wind in your hair on open water, being part of something bigger always begins with showing up.

Call to action:

👋 This week, introduce yourself to someone new—online, in class, or at work. Because you never know when a stranger becomes a teammate.

Sending you love from Canada 🇨🇦

View in browser Hi Reader, Peggy doesn't like uphills. And uphills don't like Peggy 😅 (And no, I can't just find a flat trail. Nanaimo is hilly.) Let me back up. As you might know, I'm back to jogging after my ankle recovery. The goal? 5K under 33:33 (yes, I like a very specific number 🤓). For now, I'm walking and jogging. And it's going pretty well… Until I hit an uphill. Then… I struggle. Same story with cycling. There's no "beam me up, Scotty" option here (Google this if you have...

View in browser Hi Reader, A friend of mine shared something recently that's been rattling around in my head ever since, and yes, I asked permission to share 😉 Something she'd been working on hadn't gone the way she'd hoped. She was disappointed. Really disappointed. When she got home that evening, her father asked if she was ready to listen. And when she nodded, he said: "You know how to do the work. Now you need to learn how to get the work done." Let that sit with you for a moment. Because...

View in browser Hi Reader, Last week, I shared the story of how a single phone check derailed my whole morning routine. It ended with me listening to some random stranger's music choice, out loud, at the gym. Today, I want to take that thread a little further. Because every morning, as part of that same routine, I also read what are called Afformations. Not Affirmations. Afformations 🤓 (Credit to Noah St. John, who coined the concept back in 1997.) The difference is small. But powerful....
