You Raise Me Up

Ph.D. is the highest recognition in the academic world.

DTM (Distinguished Toastmasters) is like the Ph.D. but in the Toastmasters world.

I am only one project shy away from that prestigious title: starting a NEW club or reviving a Troubled one.

Since TM is gradually recycling the Legacy Program, I have to finish my last project by June 30, 2021, otherwise, I have to restart the process in the new program - Pathways.

I reached out. I got advice, insights, and wisdom. I am grateful all the feedback from my caring colleagues.

"You Raise Me Up" is dedicated to you all especially the following (click on the names for LinkedIn profiles):

1. Bonnie Mak: Professional Speaker at Self-employed

2. Gina Cook: Holder of 7 DTMs, My Toastmasters Idol

3. Gabriel Duguay: A capable Division Governor

4. Gaetane Ferland: Courageous fellow TM

5. Harry Zwanenburg: Consultant, Coach, Speaker

6. Julie Salgado: Policy Analyst at Natural Resources Canada

7. Louise-Veronique Sicotte: Holder of 2 DTMs, my fellow McGill club member

8. Marc De Vleeschauwer: Business Improvement Manager

9. Sonia Gaona: Travailleur indépendant du secteur médecines alternatives

A Big Shout-out goes to my co-coach, who is ready to "pour my heart, body, and soul with you on this" when I invited her to get on board. She accepted my invitation with those heartwarming words which brought joy to my ❤ and almost tears to my 😍.

She is a Certified Life & Executive Coach by profession and she has an upbeat personality. Her name is Reem Ghannoum. I feel so blessed to have met her. Her uplifting spirit made me eager to start "our collaboration together, motivating each other, and just building our friendship further!" (her words, and I totally agree).

Thank YOU all. 🌹🌹🌹
