In this deeply personal quick tip episode, Fiona Killackey reflects on the recent loss of a dear friend and a phrase her father would always say: "I'll try." Through memories of two people who made a lasting impact on her life, Fiona explores the importance of showing up for others, finding joy in ordinary moments and recognising that it's often the smallest gestures that leave the biggest impression.

You'll learn:

• Why the words "I'll try" can be a powerful reminder to approach each day with intention, kindness and optimism.
• How small gestures, from sending a thoughtful message to making an introduction, can create meaningful connections and lasting memories.
• Why the way you show up for people matters just as much as the strategies, revenue and growth we often focus on in business.
