Although this story is not directly related to finding a job in 2024, it is relevant. To give you some context of the job market here are the stats from 2018-2024, in 2-year intervals, starting with 2018 and finishing with 2024.

I used to have this saying that I lived by. It went: you're the problem AND the solution. I really believed we could solve our own problems - by ourselves. So much so, I prototyped this hard in 2020 when I left Lululemon and . . .

Relishing your rubies: I wanted to give you examples of how this plays out in our relationships and environments. Initially we have mutual admiration for each other’s chests. Yours may be full of rubies and gold coins, whilst theirs are full of copper and emeralds.

I have a theory that we are all walking around with a treasure chest. Stick with me on this one… I had a lengthy discussion with a new friend where I learned lots about her life.

I have been raised, like many, to follow a thought through to fruition; using a logical, type A, linear fashion. Meaning: when an idea enters my orbit and feels zesty, I act on it, in the most immediate and actionable fashion.

If you're not curious about the critical mass following Taylor Swift, you're missing out. Whether you like Taylor or not, the world can agree something is happening. Swifties may know what and why, but I think it is much more than music.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that I received my Core Gift around the same time I was encouraged to watch The Big Door Prize. You see both of these entities collided in my life to ask the same questions: Why am I here? Is there a compass? How do I find it?

What if being alive is simply about expressing how we constantly respond to our environment(s)? I am ever curious about how one can live a life fully expressed – and more so, how it can exist within a career.

A bizarre thing happened on Tuesday. It was a day where I was hit with three powerful realizations about what stories limit me and what I’m capable of.

On Friday we completed the Master Facilitator Training with the Core Gift Institute and it got me thinking: how can we ever fully express ourselves?

Part 2: I left you with the question: How can we be fully ourselves and be financially supported? And the way I best understand this is in the drawing above ^

Part 1: A week ago I came across a graphic that kept me at night. See above ^

Exactly two weeks ago I left to attend OD for Life's North American Gathering at the Ecology Retreat Centre outside of Toronto.

Part 2: Why a “coming of place” strategy is the BEST tourism strategy going. We all know the power of story.

Part 1: Who is the best person to market a place-based, authentic, tourism experience – a visitor or a local? I believe it is both.

Imagine feeling like whatever your passion is, it is totally viable as a career. That whatever dream you hold for yourself is fully possible.

This is a saying I often return to and today I shared it with a client because we have the tendency to forget the fullness of our experience.

My favourite thing to do is share my experience. Maybe it’s narcissism, maybe it’s a polymath thing, or maybe it just works for me.

This is a concept that entered my consciousness through Ben Page’s book Healing Trees and is something I consider regularly.

How I came to be "reading" Morgan Housel’s The Psychology of Money. This book first entered my orbit on my road trip with Pini.
