𝗜𝗧'𝗦 𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗗𝗢𝗪𝗡 𝗛𝗜𝗟𝗟

Every now and then, you have a conversation that leaves you feeling a little more hopeful.

This was one of those conversations.

Keerit Jutla and I talked about reconciliation, institutional leadership, economic growth, and the role each of us can play in creating meaningful change.

Here's a sneak peek.

I learned this from my new good friend Shahzad Gidwani as we were recording an episode of ConquerCast.

Can't wait for you all to learn from Shazad and his perspective on branding, leadership and business.

Stay tuned.

Self-awareness is important.
But it isn't enough.

During this episode of ConquerCast, one of my final questions to Gina Bassi was:

➤ What's one big/main idea you want people to take away from our conversation?

Her answer? Go inward.

Better understand yourself.
But don't get stuck there.
Test, experiment and be part of the change.

BOOM. Too good!

It reminded me that leadership development and personal excellence isn't just about learning more about yourself. Yes, spend time understanding your:
💥 Your values
💥 Your strengths
💥 Blind spots

But don't stay there.
💥 Test
💥 Experiment
💥 Learn
💥 Adjust

This is exactly what I've found through executive coaching, leadership coaching, and working with high performers:

➤ Growth doesn't happen through reflection alone. It happens when reflection meets action!

A big thank you to SK Uddin, Kripa Anand and the entire CanadianSME Small Business Magazine team for a great conversation - what leadership looks like for small-medium sized businesses.

Looking forward to the full episode coming out soon.

Something tells me we'll be collaborating more in the future! 😃

You don't need me for content alone. There's more than enough content out there in the world.

What I'm good at is marrying content, community and application. So, in the spirit of application, I'm sharing NO NEW content with you this week 😃.

Instead, here is a recap of what hit home recently -> lessons of leadership, team performance and personal excellence. The messages that got people thinking and talking. Whether you're catching up or revisiting a favourite, I hope something here speaks to you.

As you're reviewing, I encourage you to identify at least ONE action item you can test out.

➤ 1. YOUR PERSONAL OPERATING SYSTEM
➤ 2.DIALING YOUR AUTHENTICITY

If you’d like help turning insight into action, let’s book a complimentary 1:1 laser coaching session and work on this together.

Most coaching stops at awareness. This is where mine starts. Then we build your Personal Operating System so you actually follow through with tangible actions.

Here’s what leaders are saying:

💥 “Parm this 35min coaching call was more valuable than the two-week course I was in last year.”

𝗡𝗢𝗧 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝗩𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗢𝗦 𝗔𝗟𝗟 𝗗𝗔𝗬!

I promise I didn't spend all day recording videos in my car!

At the end of this leadership training session with the senior leadership team from the Municipality of Strathroy-Caradoc , one participant asked who my favourite wrestler was, and why.

Did we just become best friends? YUP! 😃

A great time with this leadership team talking about values-based leadership, and I can't wait to do it all over again!

Big shout out to Doug for your partnership in setting this up. And great meeting Rob in-person after all the time we've spent together over zoom.

Conquer your potential friends!

𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛 𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡

Coming out of a coaching conversation with a communications leader in police services .. we talked about why he feels constantly drained.

Not because he isn't capable. Actually, the opposite.

He cares deeply. Takes ownership. Wants to help. Steps in often.

But over time, he's started to carry problems that aren't fully his to carry in the first place.

Other people’s stress. Other people’s urgency. Other people’s lack of planning.

Maybe you’ve felt this too.

FOCUS: We focused on the difference between being supportive and becoming emotionally responsible for everything around you.

INSIGHT: High performers often take ownership of problems that were never fully theirs to carry.

ACTION: We discussed a simple framework to use in stressful situations:
M → What’s MY responsibility or within my span of control?
T → What’s THEIR responsibility?
O → What’s OURS to work through together?

Sometimes burnout comes from treating everything like it’s yours alone.

YOUR TURN: Simple yes or no .. have you ever carried something that wasn’t fully yours to carry?

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗗𝗢𝗘𝗦 𝗜𝗧 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗡 𝗧𝗢 𝗬𝗢𝗨?

I asked Vipin () Seva Food Bank ) what the tagline "Conquer your potential" means to him and his answer was simple… and powerful.

"Potential doesn’t plateau."

Like goals, you can achieve them, but they lead to something else. Something bigger.

So you achieve .. and then you go again. This is how you move toward the next BEST version of yourself.

𝗪𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗧𝗛𝗜𝗦 𝗟𝗢𝗢𝗞𝗦 𝗟𝗜𝗞𝗘 𝗜𝗡 𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗟-𝗧𝗜𝗠𝗘
I also asked him how he’s recently been able to conquer his potential.

His answer?

Helping Seva Food Bank get out of the red in 2025.

They carried a significant deficit for most of the year. But through a focused plan, persistence, and belief in his team… they turned things around.

Maybe not perfectly, but definitely with intention.

𝗗𝗢𝗡'𝗧 𝗘𝗩𝗘𝗥 𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗚𝗘𝗧
"Don’t ever forget what it’s like to be on the ground."

This line still rings loud.

The best leaders don’t move away from the work. They stay close enough to understand it.

If you need to… stock the shelves.
Sweep the floor.
Build the participant packages.

Not because you have to, but because it keeps you connected.

𝗚𝗥𝗢𝗪𝗧𝗛 𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗖𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡

Coming out of a coaching session with a lawyer .. we were reflecting on a pattern we had been noticing over time.

He would get into a strong routine .. Structured, disciplined, fully planned out.

And then… fall off.

The routine was hard to sustain. So the cycle would repeat. Reset, restart, fall off again.

Maybe you’ve felt this too.

As we worked through it, we realized something important.

That push for a “perfect” routine wasn’t all bad. It actually helped him build momentum and get going.

But it needed to evolve.

FOCUS: We focused on shifting from a perfect routine to a sustainable one.

INSIGHT: A perfect routine can create momentum. But only a flexible one will keep you consistent.

ACTION: Keep the parts of your routine that give you energy. But create space. Build in white space, not just structure. Aim for something you can repeat, not perfect.

YOUR TURN: DM or comment below .. what part of your routine is consistent?
