Getting internet in the new pad two days before a long weekend is like having a birthday two weeks before Christmas. You get so excited about one new gift, and then ten more just come flying at you. Needless to say, offline living has created tons of posts in my head that I can’t wait [...]
…. ack, there is so much goodness to share! As mentioned before, I have recently jumped on board the People Resources team at lululemon athletica as a Leadership Trainer. To refrain from exploding with all the incoherent excitement I have after my first week, I’ll limit myself to a few key learnings about the way [...]
Running is not enjoyable for me. I like going fast (hence the love of rowing and cycling/spinning) and my two feet hitting the pavement are not what I would call “fast.” But running is definitely enjoyable when you get to do it in your underwear! The BC Cancer Foundation’s Underwear Affair was, like last year, [...]
I love change. Just saying that excites me. “Change it!” It just screams fresh starts, intentional innovation, and big dreams. When things aren’t changing they become stagnant – and I become bored.

For the past 2 years, The Great Assets have ran around Vancouver in our underwear – and this year is no exception! This revealing, and incredibly fun, 10 km run in the heart of the city is one of the highlights of my summers, but I need your help! Firstly – why do we run [...]
Growing up, my Dad called me Cork. Little Cork to be precise. And man did I hate it! I always thought: “I have a first name – use it!” All of my friends, and even some colleagues, now call me Corker. (Porker also had a good run.) My Dad used to raise my bike seat [...]
Yesterday was Worldwide-Meet-The-Tribe-Of-Linchpins Day according to Seth Godin. Seth fans gathered together at over 790 meetups around the world and talked about his books/blog, shipping ideas, and many other topics of interest. Chris Coldeway, another UBC Sauder alum and creator of redrovr, organized the Vancouver Meetup. My sis got up there and shared a bit [...]
