Pick your battles — and be a C student when it matters 📝

Hi Reader

As I mentioned last week, I like to ace my MBA.

(Yes, probably some old beliefs popping up there — hey, I’m human too. That’s why I get coached as well 😏)

But here’s the thing:

In some areas, I’m perfectly fine being a C student.

A few weeks ago, I went to an escape room with my teammates.

We didn’t get out in time.

(And no, they don’t leave you locked in forever. 😉)

And you know what? I was okay with it.

Because the goal wasn’t to win — it was to have fun.

To bond.

To create a stronger team dynamic.

I’m also totally fine being a C student in other areas of my life.

Not everything needs to be an A+.

The real power?

Knowing where you want to excel — and where it’s totally okay to just enjoy the experience.

(By the way, I have to give a little credit here — this beautiful perspective came from a lovely walk with my neighbour. Sometimes the simplest conversations bring the biggest insights 💛)

👉🏼 Tiny task for this week:

Pick one area where you’re giving yourself unnecessary pressure, and permit yourself to be a C student there.

Sending you love from Canada 🇨🇦

View in browser Hi Reader How have you been? I'm about to embark on the second half of the second semester of my MBA, and I had a fantastic break! No, not a summer break, just a one-week break 😅 That summer is on hold as an MBA student at Vancouver Island University 😏 In the past few weeks, a topic that came up repeatedly was the need to start making connections! But you know what, as kids, we’re told not to talk to strangers. Don’t trust them. Don’t follow them. And definitely don’t tell...

View in browser Hi Reader I just received an email I had sent to myself a year ago. (Yep — I do that. And you can too, by the way: https://www.futureme.org/) Reading it inspired me to share this with you today. The letter applauded me. She (future me) celebrated the stamina, the trust that it would all work out, and the patience to embrace small steps — even when they didn’t feel glamorous. She thanked me for practicing what I preach: Choosing progress over perfection. Being a proud C student...
