On June 29, Canadian climate technology company Deep Sky reached an important milestone in carbon removal. More importantly, it gives us a chance to understand one of the most fascinating climate technologies you've probably never heard of. Deep Sky team, lead by CEO Alex Petre For years, the climate conversation has focused on one goal: put less carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Drive cleaner cars. Build renewable energy. Make homes and businesses more efficient. All of th

I believe the way we treat "ordinary moments" is the way we treat our lives. We spend so much time waiting for the BIG moments. The wedding. The promotion. The baby. The vacation. Retirement. Those moments are beautiful, don't get me wrong. But they're also rare. Most of life is made up of ordinary Thursdays. So let's honor those as we should! - Truly savor the coffee - Make your bed with care and gratitude - Whether you're a CEO, a mom, a backpacker, or a circus clown show u

Pay attention to what comes with ease. Not because it will make your life easy. Not because it guarantees success. Because ease is information. For most of my life, I thought growth meant focusing on what I wasn't good at. Improve the weakness. Close the gap. Work harder. There's value in that. But I've started to notice something else. Sometimes we can pour 100% of our effort into something and get a 10% return. And sometimes we can expend 10% effort and create 1,000% impact

One of the most valuable communication skills I've developed over the years is admitting when I don't know something. For years, I thought confidence meant having the answer.

Real confidence is being comfortable not having the answer and being willing to ask for clarity, especially in front of other people. In my experience, that's one of the fastest ways to earn respect from your peers and your team. It sig

In conversation with Drew Brees, retired NFL Quarterback When I was a cub TV reporter early in my career, I decided to look at my work differently. Instead of “just a news story,” I chose to see it as creating a portrait of someone and handing it back to them. Saying, I see how hard you work. I see what you are carrying. I see the details of your life. There is a quiet power in that. A kind of beauty most people move too fast to notice. And it taught me something I have carri

Want to stop sounding smaller than you are? Remove one word. “Just.” We use it all the time without thinking. “I just wanted to follow up.”“Just a quick thought.”“I’m just checking in.”“I just have a question.” It sounds polite. It’s not. Every time you say “just,” you shrink what you’re about to say before anyone else hears it. And no one is doing that to you. You’re doing it yourself. What “Just” Actually Signals When you add “just,” you quietly downplay your message. You s

Small businesses are told to post more. Boost more. Optimize more. But here’s the real move: Go where people are already emotionally invested. Where they feel something! Where they’re yelling at the TV.High-fiving strangers.Or crying into a beer. There is almost nowhere left in our culture where attention, emotion, loyalty, and community all collide at once. Sports is that place. Be part of that. If you’re a small business owner or solo operator, you don’t have the luxury of
