True Fit

Companies must be doing something wrong if a term like "the great resignation" is hitting headlines... 
So what's missing and how do organizations fill the gaps? 
In this episode I'm joined by psychologist and friend, Shawn Bakker, of Psychometrics Canada to unpack where companies are going wrong, modern issues within promotion models, and what people are really looking for out of the future of their careers.

I've always loved success stories behind entrepreneurs that unpack how they got to where they are today. Since the beginning of the pandemic, many entrepreneurs had to batten down the hatches and make some of the most difficult decisions they ever made.

In this episode, I'm joined by Nicholas Coleman, CEO at Ship Sticks, to learn how he lead a business that relies on traveling golfers through a time when everything was grounded. We discuss his passion for convenience and the many new verticals where Ship Sticks is becoming a household brand.

Heading into another new year, I'm hyper aware of the baggage we're all carrying along with us.

In this episode, I talk about what it means to take responsibility for your life, and how careful attention to your words and actions will only help you highlight exactly who you are, both in your career and personal life.

There's been plenty of change and there's more to come, so there's no better time to slow down and think about the things that make you happy, and hold yourself accountable for your own happiness.

“Blessed is he who expects nothing, for he shall never be disappointed."

The end of the year usually brings about a lot of expectations. Many people are hyper focused on an upcoming Christmas bonus, how celebrations with family might play out, and what we hope the new year might bring. But I think it's time to get rid of our expections. In this episode I discuss my feelings on expections and how you can ring in the new year differently this year.

These days it seems like everything is stressing out, causing fear and anxiety, or simply shortening our fuse. As we head into another year of uncertainty, it's time to show ourselves a little grace. In this episode, I discuss how to make your life a little more comfortable personally and professionally and why you should stop tolerating the parts of your world that don't serve you.

December has arrived, and usually that means that people are starting to feel a little more stressed out. But looking around these days, every one seems like they've been stressed for a while already. In this episode, I reflect on what was a tough week for me and some lessons I've learned about making space for yourself and taking the time you need to feel some joy.
