  4. Endings and Beginnings

    Endings and Beginnings

    The ending of one year the beginning of another provides us a great time to reflect and strategize for the coming year. In 2024, I learned that it takes many people to ensure access to healthy food, that local action can lead to international partnership and that inspiring Canadians can be found in every sector. As 2025 begins, I've recommitted to eating local seasonal food, to exploring new ways of communicating and to becoming a better business leader. My word for 2025 is grow. Let me know if you’ve had similar thoughts.
