Life is a beautiful interwoven tapestry, filled with magically colored threads of love, connection, and kindness. 


This gorgeous tapestry reminds us that everything meaningful in life is about others 💚💚 


It's about the family who supports us unconditionally. 


The friends who laugh and cry with us, and build us up!!! 


The colleagues who collaborate with us, challenge us, and help us grow as humans and as professionals!! 


The strangers who become friends, and the friends who become family. 🤗🤗🤗 


It's about the moments we share The memories we create 


The love we emanate It's about lifting each other up, rather than tearing each other down. It's about empathy, kindness, and compassion. 💖💖💖💖💖 


If you TRULY want to be happy make your life about others 


Create a world that's more loving, more caring, and more meaningful. 🤗🤗🤗


LOVE and APPRECIATE YOU ALWAYS ❤️❤️❤️

You're allowed to evolve.


I used to think consistency meant staying the same. 


That changing directions somehow made me unreliable, unfocused, or a quitter.


The most authentic version of yourself isn't static.


 It's dynamic, breathing, constantly becoming!!!


What lit you up five years ago doesn't have to light you up today. 


The career path that seemed perfect at 25 can feel suffocating at 35. 


The goals you chased relentlessly last quarter might not align with who you're becoming this quarter.


And that's not failure. 


That's growth!!!!


The truest act of integrity isn't forcing yourself to remain interested in something that no longer serves you. 


It's having the courage to admit when your inner compass has shifted and then actually following it.


Constantly reimagining your future isn't about being flaky or chasing shiny objects. 


It's about: 


→ Listening to the quiet voice that says "this isn't it anymore"


→ Giving yourself permission to outgrow old versions of success


→ Recognizing that pivot points are proof you're paying attention


→ Understanding that your evolution doesn't invalidate your past. It honors it


The people who've had the most profound impact didn't stay in one lane because it was safe. 


They constantly recalibrated. 


They let go of what no longer fit. 


They trusted themselves enough to say "not this" before they could see "what's next."


Your interests will change. 


Your priorities will shift. 


Your definition of success will transform.


Keep leaning into your truest self


Even when that self looks nothing like who you were a year ago.


The future you're reimagining? 


It's not meant to be set in stone. 


It's meant to be constantly reimagined.


That's not uncertainty. 


That's being alive!!!! 💖💖💖


LOVE AND APPRECIATE YOU ALWAYS 💚 


Dom

The greatest way we can honour those who served, and those who continue to serve, is not through words alone, but through kindness 


Through raising the next generation to be good compassionate, principled, and brave humans 


Every act of kindness is a ripple that extends their legacy. 


Every child we teach to stand up for what's right, to show mercy, to serve others they become living testaments to what was fought for. 


When we choose patience over anger, understanding over judgment, generosity over selfishness, we honour their memory in the most powerful way possible.


They gave everything so we could have the freedom to choose how we live. 


Let us choose kindness. 


Let us choose to raise good humans. 


Let us choose to serve one another as they served us.


This is how we truly honour them not just on days of remembrance, but in the quiet, everyday moments when we decide what kind of people we will be, and what kind of world we will build together.


To those who served and those who serve still: your sacrifice will not be forgotten. 


We will honour you by living well, by loving deeply, and by passing on the torch of goodness to those who come after us.

While everyone's hunting for deals this week, I'm thinking about the BIGGEST deal most businesses are missing!!!


PROTECTING what they've already built!!


I recently sat down with the INCREDIBLE Ashley Smith for her Canada Now podcast and let me tell you this conversation hit DIFFERENT!!!


Here's the hard truth no business owner wants to hear:


"We're too small to be a target" is THE most dangerous lie in business right now.



The threat landscape heading into 2026? It's not what it was even 6 months ago.


AI-driven attacks are getting SMARTER.


Supply chain vulnerabilities are EVERYWHERE.


And most organizations? Still operating in 2005 assumptions.


In this awesome convo with my super friend Ashley, I break down:


✅ The REAL cyber risks every leader needs on their radar for 2026


✅ The leadership blind spots that turn small issues into catastrophic breaches


✅ Simple, actionable steps YOUR BUSINESS can implement THIS WEEK (not next quarter, not next year — THIS WEEK)


Whether you're a founder grinding it out, an executive steering the ship, a board member asking tough questions, or a nonprofit leader protecting your mission — this conversation is FOR YOU!!!


Here's the uncomfortable reality: Cybersecurity stopped being just an IT problem a LONG time ago.


It's now a strategy issue. A leadership issue. 


A SURVIVAL issue!!!!


Massive THANK YOU to the supremely AMAZING Ashley for the platform and the phenomenal questions! 🙌


👉 Ready to stop playing defense with outdated playbooks?


🎧 Listen now: https://lnkd.in/gm9vyHuq


Let's make 2026 the year we get PROACTIVE, not reactive!!!


Drop a 💡 if this resonates — and tag someone who needs to hear this message!

We're Not Meant to Be Monochrome


Imagine opening a crayon box and finding 64 shades of beige. 


Every. Single. One.


No electric blue to capture the wildness of a storm-tossed sea. 


No crimson red to paint the fire of a sunset that stops you mid-step. 


No forest green, no sunshine yellow, no violet that somehow tastes like possibility.


Just... beige.


That's what the world would be if we were all the same. 


 It would be boring as heck 


Here's the truth they don't put on motivational posters: 


The magic doesn't happen in uniformity. 


It happens in the collision of different. 


When cerulean meets burnt orange and creates something you've never seen before. 


When perspectives clash and spark and suddenly you're seeing dimensions you didn't know existed.


Every person you meet is a color you don't have in your hand. 


They've lived through shades of experience you've never touched. 


They see the world through a completely different lens, and that's not a problem to solve


it's the whole point of the masterpiece.


The painting of humanity NEEDS the wild streaks, the unexpected combinations, the colors that don't "match" by conventional rules but somehow create breathtaking beauty when they dare to share the same canvas.


Embrace the colors of the wind....ALL of them. 


The ones that comfort you AND the ones that challenge you. 


The familiar tones and the ones that feel foreign on your tongue.


Because we're not here to color inside the lines with identical crayons.


We're here to create something that's never been seen before. 


Together 🌈 


What's one "color" someone else brought into your life that changed your whole palette?

The greatest spiritual practice isn't escape


We often think enlightenment means rising above the mess of being human. 


That wisdom requires distance. 


That peace demands detachment.


But what if the opposite is true?


What if the real work isn't to transcend our humanity, but to fully embrace it?


The greatest challenge of love and perhaps of living isn't to become deeply spiritual by removing ourselves from experience. 


It's to become deeply human by immersing ourselves in it.


To stay present when things fall apart. 


To remain open when it would be easier to close.


 To meet another person's pain without turning away. 


To show up fully, even when it's uncomfortable.


This is where transformation actually happens


not on the mountaintop, but in the valley. 


Not in isolation, but in connection. 


Not in perfection, but in our willingness to be messy, vulnerable, and real.


The people who've touched my life most deeply weren't the ones who had it all figured out. 


They were the ones who stayed. Who listened. Who let themselves feel. 


Who chose presence over polish.


That's the kind of human I want to be.


Not transcendent. 


Just here. Fully and courageously here. 💚💚💚
