    I don’t usually post about the clients I speak f I don’t usually post about the clients I speak for—but this one deserves a moment.

On June 25, I had the joy of speaking at Trico LivingWell in Calgary.
What makes this place extraordinary?
They’ve achieved something no one else in the world has:

🏅 The WELL Gold Standard for Living Communities
This isn’t just a plaque on the wall.
It’s a rigorous, science-backed certification that proves their commitment to real wellness—through air quality, natural light, movement, nutrition, and community connection.

They’re not just checking boxes—they’re setting the bar.

Trico LivingWell is also certified with the WELL Health-Safety Rating—meaning everything from their emergency planning to cleaning protocols has been verified as best-in-class.

It was an honour to bring laughter, presence, and human connection to a community already leading the way in what it means to truly live well.

Right here in Calgary—and miles ahead of the curve.

    Most people don’t lack emotion—they just lack Most people don’t lack emotion—they just lack the words to express it.

This short video gives you 3 simple ways to speak up when you’re disappointed—without shutting down or blowing up.

Because better words create better relationships.

    When to Trust Your Instincts (And When Not To) In When to Trust Your Instincts (And When Not To)

Instincts are fast. Logic is slow.
Both are useful—but not in the same moments.

Your instincts kick in before you even realize it—like a gut feeling that something’s off in a meeting, or a sudden pull toward a decision you can’t yet explain. That’s not magic. It’s pattern recognition, built from experience, stored deep in your nervous system.

So when should you trust your gut?
When the decision is human. When it’s about people, relationships, or values. Instincts shine in the grey areas where data runs out and connection takes over.

But when stakes are high, and emotion runs hot—your gut might just be fear in disguise.
That’s when logic needs a seat at the table. Slow down. Ask yourself: Am I reacting—or responding?

The best leaders don’t pick one over the other.
Instinct gives you the signal.
Logic helps you interpret it.
Together, they build the kind of clarity you can trust.

    People aren’t unpredictable. We’re just unawar People aren’t unpredictable. We’re just unaware.

We all follow patterns, especially when emotions run high:

🌀 We retreat when we feel judged.
🔇 We go silent when we feel unsafe.
⚡ We interrupt when we feel unheard.

These aren’t personality flaws—they’re protection strategies.

Once you recognize these patterns in yourself (and others),
you stop taking things so personally—
and start leading with more clarity, compassion, and calm.

Awareness isn’t soft.
It’s powerful.

    Humour isn’t a talent. It’s a pattern-breaking Humour isn’t a talent.
It’s a pattern-breaking skill.

It’s seeing what others miss.
It’s taking a left turn when everyone else follows the script.

Funny people notice the weird, the ironic, the painfully true.
They say what everyone’s thinking—but no one’s saying.

They don’t make things less serious.
They just make serious things easier to hear.

    One of the most overlooked signs of team growth? One of the most overlooked signs of team growth?

People stop getting emotional over things that used to trigger them.

That one coworker’s tone? Doesn’t throw them off anymore.
Last-minute changes? Annoying—but no longer derailing.
Tough feedback? Taken in, not taken personally.

This is emotional recovery.
It’s not loud. It’s not dramatic.
It’s the quiet return of emotional capacity—and a sign your team is healing.

Watch for the moments they don’t overreact. That’s where the real progress is.

    Flow isn’t luck. It’s a sequence. That laser- Flow isn’t luck. It’s a sequence.

That laser-focused, fully alive state we call flow?
It doesn’t just happen—it’s built.

Flow has four key requirements—and most of us skip the first one.

 1. Clear Goal – You need to know exactly what you’re trying to achieve.
 2. Challenge Level – The task should be about 4% harder than your current skill. Too easy? You get bored. Too hard? You get anxious.
 3. No Multitasking – Flow hates distractions.
 4. Uninterrupted Time – Give yourself at least 90 minutes of focused effort. No pings, no tabs, no texts.

Flow is your brain’s peak performance mode—but it has rules.
Respect the setup, and flow will show up.
