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 far beyond events like this: 👉 The importance of good planning. Because when you’re part of a team this size - with 5 different universities, more than 20 judges, prominent guests, sponsors, and volunteers all depending on each other - every detail matters. Planning isn’t just logistics. It’s leadership. When one person is late, it doesn’t just affect the timeline. It affects everyone else who’s trying to stay on course. It’s a ripple effect, one I’ve often seen in group projects, business teams, and even personal goals. This experience also made me reflect on another team I’ve been part of for the past ten months, our Meta Team (also known as the Frontrunners). We’ve worked closely on assignments, presentations, and strategy, and what has made our collaboration succeed and ace it isn’t luck; it’s planning. There’s no micromanaging. No last-minute chaos. Just trust, communication, and structure. That’s where the magic happens. For the next few weeks, I’ll be sharing stories and reflections on planning, procrastination, and shifting your mindset, so you can approach your goals with clarity, confidence, and calm. Because doing things last-minute might give you a quick adrenaline rush… However, intentional planning provides long-term peace of mind. Sending you fall greetings from Canada 🍁 Peggy P.S. If you’ve been operating in “last-minute mode” lately, maybe this is your sign to slow down and plan differently. It doesn’t have to be perfect; it just has to be intentional.

View in browser Hi Reader, Last week, I shared how Black Friday overwhelm pushed me into a much-needed moment of reflection, a pause to reconnect with my values and how I want to show up. Well… that reflection didn’t stop there. A few days later, I had a conversation with dear friends about letting go, and someone shared something I had heard before but never really felt until now: 2025 is a Year Nine. A year of completion. 2026 is a Year One. A fresh start. Now, I’m not an expert in...
View in browser Hi Reader, Last week, you didn’t hear from me.Not because I forgot.Not because I didn’t have something to say. But because I felt overwhelmed, the kind of overwhelmed that sneaks up quietly. Black Friday and Cyber Monday took over my inbox.Hundreds of emails, deals, countdowns, pressure, noise. And something about it pulled me into a pause. We’re living in a world that invites us to care about sustainability, minimalism, and slowing down, yet at the same time bombards us with...
View in browser Hi Reader, On one of my morning walks this week, I came across a rock with a quote painted on it: “Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.” W. James And this inspired today's email because the way you prioritize makes a huge difference in how you handle deadlines. Because the quickest path to overwhelm isn’t a full schedule… It’s a schedule where everything feels equally important. And the past months reminded me of that in a very real way. With the start of a new...
