Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with international partners whose hospitality, dedication, and unwavering support continue to inspire me. No matter the circumstances, they go above and beyond to help me reach my goals, often under tight timelines and immense pressure.
Not every project succeeds, but their commitment to doing the right thing, and doing it well, never fails to impress me. What keeps me going is my faith in people, (individuals, colleagues, and friends) who believe in what they do, and that belief drives real impact. That’s all any of us can ask for, and all we should strive to be.
Sadly, not everyone operates with that same spirit. I’ve also seen bullying, driven by insecurity and a lack of empathy. It’s toxic, impulsive, and manipulative, and it has no place in any environment where respect and collaboration should thrive.
I wish more people could embody the values of those I’ve been fortunate to work with: respect, humility, and a genuine desire to lift others up. We all have the power to choose better. Locks can be changed, and I know people can, too. Every day is a chance to do better, not just for ourselves, but for those around us.
Be kind 💛 it costs nothing, but it means everything. Be the reason someone feels seen, supported, and valued today.
