I can’t remember how many times I have questioned myself, ” Should I do it?”, “Is this the right time?”, “Can I do it?” Courage plays a tremendous part when hesitation and deferment happen frequently in the work-life balance equation. Here I am! Three weeks into the MALAT Program, and I am still feeling nervous and overwhelmed. At the same time, I am also excited and have no regret in starting this journey at this stage of my life.
Several years ago, I had an opportunity to engage in a self-assessment on personal and career development with my coach. The first question, “What are you most passionate about?”, triggered my memory of the most reminiscent and enjoyable work experience in Japan, where I developed my skills on teaching, facilitating, coaching, and training and development. I am delighted to be part of the MALAT Program to learn how people learn, and to enhance my foundation for a return to my most passionate career path related to learning and education.
Currently, I am working at BC Hydro as a Program Technologist Work Leader in Program and Contract Management.
In my spare time, I like to go for walks at trails, spend time with my family and being outdoors. I also love travelling and I hope to be able to do this again very soon.
