The Coach's Corner

The marketplace is hard. The economy is hard. And if you're out there looking for work, I don't envy you, because the job search today is not the job search of yesterday. We're living in a new era where resumes alone cannot carry you. They can't be your primary strategy. They can't be your main hope. In this episode, I break down why your resume isn't enough and is often getting thrown in the trash, why who knows you matters more than who you know, and why your digital presence is now your real first impression. We'll explore the 4 Human Factors that actually get people hired: - First Impressions Platforms People Proof And we'll walk through 10 practical actions you can take immediately to increase your visibility, expand your network, build credibility, and create more opportunities for yourself in a competitive job market. If you've been sending out hundreds of resumes and hearing nothing but silence, this episode is for you.

Purpose isn’t always born in comfort; sometimes it’s shaped in the margins.

Purpose isn’t always born in comfort. Sometimes it’s shaped in the margins. In today’s episode, I share my own story: growing up in a low‑income, culturally diverse neighborhood in Toronto, navigating the culture shock of leaving it, and how those early experiences — along with the grounding force of faith — shaped my understanding of people, empathy, belonging, and ultimately my leadership style. We explore five key themes: - Poverty as a teacher Culture shock as a catalyst Reinvention through disruption Faith as an anchor for purpose Leadership style as a function of one’s upbringing If you’ve ever felt like your beginnings were too humble, too chaotic, or too complicated to produce greatness, this episode is for you.

Parenting is a journey of constant evolution. Today’s episode is for parents and adult children navigating one of the most meaningful transitions in life: moving from a protector child relationship into a friendship built on empathy, listening, and mutual respect. In this episode, we explore three key ideas that shape this transition: • How attachment theory influences the way we let go — and why secure bonds make separation both beautiful and difficult. • How parenting must recalibrate at every milestone — from elementary to junior high, junior high to senior high, and senior high to college or university. • How parents shift from authority to partnership — learning when to lead, when to listen, and when to let friendship emerge naturally. If you’re a parent learning to let go, or an adult child hoping your parent will see you differently, this episode is for you.

Every parent dreams of the day their child steps confidently into the world — and yet that same day can quietly horrify them. It’s every hope and aspiration wrapped in a single goodbye. It’s the mission you feel you were put on Earth to do… and the moment you wonder if you actually did it right. In this episode of The Coach’s Corner, I share the journey of sending my only daughter, Makayla, off to university — a moment that brought back memories of our car rides together, listening to the Jackson 5’s “Never Can Say Goodbye.” It was our ritual. Our soundtrack. Our reminder that even when life moves forward, love doesn’t let go. And woven through this story is our faith as parents — because we almost lost her before she was born. We held onto God, believing He would bring her here, believing she had purpose, believing she would make a difference in the world. Her name, Makayla, means “Who is like Yahweh.” Now she’s here — or rather, not here with us anymore — as she steps into her own life at university. The same faith that carried her into this world is the faith we lean on as she walks into the world of her future. This episode is about how parents — not only as leaders of their children, but as the ones who must eventually send them into the world — learn to say not goodbye, but see you later.
