It's ok to be a percolator ☕️

I'm sure you raised an eyebrow when you read the subject line of this week's Backyard Gossip 🤪 it's a bit of an insider story but a powerful one that I would like to share 🌿 So put on the kettle grab yourself a fresh brew and get comfy Reader 😊 I'm a quick decision-maker, a go-getter as many would call it. As soon as I got something in my mind, I (try to) make it happen. As if my life would depend on it and there is no time to waste! Over the years, however, I learned that it might not always be the best approach. "Think before you act!" is a sentence I heard a lot in my life. Especially in high school, I would often find myself in detention because of being impulsive 🫣 And to make matters worse, I would drag my - not so impulsive friends - with me. Because, honestly being in detention on your own is not fun 😆 It did teach me a valuable lesson, not everyone is a fast decision maker. Some people just need more time to let the idea seep in and let it brew for a bit before they make up their minds. While I'm a - one push of the button - Nespresso machine, they are percolators ⏳ And you know what, that's perfectly ok! One of my coaching clients is such a percolator. She had an idea in her mind of something she wanted to achieve but just needed some time to make it happen. By allowing herself that time, taking it slow and steady, she is now ready to put take action and share it with the world. I couldn't be much prouder as a coach! Instead of being intimidated by the fast decision-makers (believe me, that is never our intention) around her, and the fear of missing the boat, she kept true to herself. She made it happen just as she had it visualized 🎯 The moral of the story, whatever your pace is, as long as you move forward and keep your focus on your goal, you'll get there! And for old times sakes, I hope you don't mind me sharing the story of The Hare & The Tortoise 🐢

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...
View in browser Hi Reader, This past week has been filled with conversations, organizing committees, team meetings, new projects… but also a simple conversation. We often think transformation comes from big events or dramatic breakthroughs ⛓️💥 But more often, it begins with a simple conversation (and a nice latte that goes with it ☕️)! The other day, I was chatting with a friend about life, you know, one of those unplanned, heart-to-heart talks that seem to happen when you least expect them....
