Hi Reader While I'm typing this, I'm drawn to look outside and see that the snow outside is slowly melting. We had some serious snowfall past Monday and Tuesday. So much so that even the university was closed for two days, and it turned out to be too dangerous to get there (the University is situated on a hill, and the road towards it tends to get icy). I loved it—not that the University was closed; we still had online classes—but the snowfall made everything turn white. One of my neighbours said, "It's a marshmallow world we live in when the snow covers the ground." I didn't realize how much I've missed this in the past few years (if you are following me, I just moved to Canada 🇨🇦) and how soul-nourishing it is. Everything seems so quiet as if they turned down the volume, and it's also so much brighter. But not everyone shared my love for Winter Wonderland 🤷🏼♀️. Probably because after they shovelled their driveway, it was completely covered again 😆 Or maybe they had no other option than to drive in the snow to get to work, and the roads were really slippery. I can tell you that everyone at the Alpine Resort Mt. Washington were very happy with the snowfall (yes, we went skiing as well), and the snow removal companies are probably sending out their invoices as we speak 😏 It just shows that it all depends on your perspective. What suits you might not suit someone else, but a change of perspective might make you appreciate their point of view a bit more. So, my question to you is: Is there something that, by shifting your perspective slightly, you can see from a different angle and maybe even appreciate? I would love to hear from you about what that might be! Just hit reply, and you'll create a direct link to me. Sending you love from Canada 🇨🇦 Peggy P.S.

View in browser Hi Reader, Last week I spent a week skiing in Whistler, yes, I (we) had a wonderful time, and I was even in the Olympic Spirit 😊 ⛷️ And it reminded me of something I hadn’t thought about in a while: the joy of being a beginner again. Besides the two days of skiing last year, the last time I went skiing for a whole week was in 2014 😅 Over the past year, I’ve been embracing that beginner mindset a lot, mostly thanks to my MBA journey. When you’re learning constantly, you’re...
View in browser Hi Reader, A short and sweet note this week, I’m off to Whistler for a week of skiing ❄️⛷️ But, I wanted to share this little story with you... Last week, while sitting in a waiting room (one of those unexpected pockets of time), I decided to make the most of it and catch up with a few friends. And then I noticed something. I was texting people in Belgium, South Africa, USA, Sweden, France, Switzerland, Australia and yes, in Canada as well 😅 My gosh! In my MBA cohort alone, my...
View in browser Hi Reader, Last week I had a not-so-nice reminder about something I talk about all the time: The importance of clarity. I had an upcoming quiz in my MBA program, and, wanting to prepare properly (hey, you know me 😏), I reached out twice to clarify exactly what we were expected to study. No response. Crickets. I went into the quiz thinking I had prepared for what was required… and walked out feeling frustrated and honestly a bit angry. Because what I thought we had to study...
