Attritional Challenges
Attritional Challenges
Happiness starts with awareness…
not all pretty, not all positive.
In 2016, for the first time in Canadian history,
the seniors outnumbered the youth in our country.
Today, 33% of the population is over the age of 50 &
now, our marbles matter, more,
than any other time in our history.
As the psyche of our nation rests in the toilet,
we know mental health illness, disease & addiction are
raging epidemics, household names & narratives.
We know there are more health issues,
occurring more at younger ages & sadly,
all we know is only what is clinically reported.
Even knowing the cost of a lack of Happy –
emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically, energetically, AND financially –
interestingly, we are still stuck at lip service.
With a senior tsunami clouding our horizon,
predictions prey hard on food chain & lifestyle.
Baby Boomers may be a 1st generation to outlive their children…
& it’s a hefty hello to what our youth must inherit!
Imagine more industries, more entrepreneurs &
less income earners, less tax payers, less consumers spending.
How will less workers not affect performance, industries & markets?
Even if AI fills gaps & lowers costs, faster,
it still does not consume goods, move products,
pay taxes, cuddle or fill the coughers!
How will our youth uphold such a mammoth economic engine,
riddled in shabby debt & pumped-up profit margins?
Coming from ‘have-nots’, logically
the Baby Boomers were motivated by stuff & money.
Post-Baby Boomers, growing up as ‘have’s,
are logically motivated more by lifestyle &
a lot less by dollars or corporate ladders.
How will the youth fund our retirements &
take care of the aging?
How will they feed the homeless, tend to the environment,
innovate, procreate and live long, healthy & Happy?
What will be the baton if we go robot?
Joyfully, for all generations…
Success is no longer the key to Happiness…
Happiness is THE key to success!!!

CHINESE FENG SHUI
Chinese Feng Shui is an ancient study based on science, wisdom & experience. Its fruits are proven, powerful, & unparalleled! Having hit the mainstream, CFS is a household name due to its acclaims & successes. Interestingly, it is mostly a silent practice… the interest is plentiful but the knowledge is much too complex & intricate for friendly, light-hearted conversation. Clients experience the positives but the lifetimes of layers & details, rest with just a few authentic Masters. Since 1995, I have been very fortunate to study/practice under the teachings of Master Dr. David Lai, a global-renowned Master residing in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
SESSION CONTENT
This session introduces you to the Flying Stars Theory & the prevailing heavenly, earthly & life energies that prevail… be you asleep or be you conscious they are in action 24/7! We will review positive/negative energy cycles, paths, impacts & patterns, & how they will impact 2025 in general. I will also set the stage with real, true-life CFS stories, so you can know for sure, the proof is securely set in the pudding!!! I have personally witnessed & experienced the health, wealth & happiness that can only be attributed to Chinese Feng Shui design solutions. It’s utterly amazing & I am anxious to share it with you!
You will learn how to assess your specific workplace with respect to the good/bad energy flows influencing its location; exterior & surroundings; & the direction that it faces. In addition, by applying the 5 Elements Theory, you will learn step-by-step, how to measure & define the energetic makeup of your specific business, with respect to the alignment of energies that prevail in your existing environment as well as the influence of your people & their specific work relationships. From there, you will learn how to harness the positive energies & subjugate the negatives, to add more joy to your people & profits!
As a final, we will discuss Chinese Feng Shui’s most fun components… doors, lighting, elemental & architectural design, furniture placement, etc. A LOT of tips of what & where to place your items… what to attract and what to avoid to promote successes & avoid disasters. Includes specific Q&A time.
NOTE: This session is calculating & interactive. Please bring pen, ruler, paper & a compass with a clear backing, if you have it. Note that a small compass will also be provided. As well, a mock floor plan will be used for discussion purposes. Participants may feel to also bring their specific business floor plans, if properly measured to scale.

Happiness 101
all ages, all backgrounds
Course Description
Did you know Happiness is more than a feeling & more like an innate intelligence? Did you know it is loaded in many proven benefits? This session introduces GNH Gross National Happiness & why it matters, now, more than any other time in our history. We will discuss living Happy vs. living for just those rare, fleeting moments & how-to experience life with more joy & passion.
Happiness starts with awareness… not all pretty… not all positive!!!
As personal & subjective as Happiness is, wanting to feel Happy is the common driver in all of us! Today, you will meet your CHO Chief Happiness Officer… your very own built-in strength & motivator! Using step-by-step methodologies, we will discuss how-to attract your best relationships, opportunities & successes & how-to keep a Happy groove amidst all the busy pressures.
How did feeling lost roll from rare to common?
I share the impact & importance of positive communications & how-to proactively recognize & avoid, ‘toxic’ people & situations. We will talk about staying in-check with your likes & priorities; making better decisions; & tastefully establishing personal boundaries.
In the spirit of a solid, Happy foundation, we will also embrace the power of coming together… how to love, assist, forgive, support one another, etc., one-on-one or in any group setting. To keep the Happy, flowing & to end on all positives, we will also wrap with Happy-go-lucky perks & go-forwards!
Communications & Relations
Course Description
This is a get-real session that delves into the insights of people communications & relations. Did you know that communication or a lack thereof, is a leading cause of mental health issues & addiction? Do you really know how YOU attract, connect or contribute? Hurt people hurt people & if you are a person that does not give a crap about people or what others think of you, very respectfully… this setting is likely not for you.
Kicking off, we will discuss the impact of the varying types & styles of communication & how communication is influenced by, childhood & life experiences; caregivers; basic human psychology & behavior; people commonalities & differences; generational mindsets; & of course, online connection & our ‘political’ environment.
Why is the body-jerk reaction to ‘can we talk?’ typically a squeeze of dis-ease vs. a leap in Love or team-building? Here, we flip the lens from conflict to constructive, to smooth the waves from negative to positive! To demonstrate & encourage good relations, we will step thru safe, simple role-playing scenarios (nothing involuntary, humiliating or embarrassing), to plant seeds for thought & practice.
For a twist, I share fruitful Chinese Feng Shui directives specific to your life energy, in order to guide more positives in your work & lifestyle! Be they positive or negative, prevailing, unseen energies truly do affect people & relations!
To wrap, we will close with more creative, Happy-go-lucky tips & ‘tools’, to ease your way to healthier relationships & successes. So… if you would like to improve the quality & longevity of your existing relationships; create new, better-aligned connections; or simply develop more confident social skills… this is a space for you! In addition, awareness enables honesty & the more honest you are about how YOU participate or present yourself as a person, the more you are able to improve your communication skills.
Entrepreneur 101
Course Description
Are you really ready to be an entrepreneur? Psyche?!! This session peels the layers of what it’s really like & what it really takes, to work for yourself & run your own business. We will discuss the pros & cons of self–employment & steps required to effectively assess an opportunity or idea.
You will learn how-to create a professional business plan for attracting partners or dollars & how-to mitigate risks to avoid over-spending & unwanted surprises. We will discuss short & long-term financial planning, budgeting & staffing & how-to navigate business growth & management. We will also cover employee engagement, productivity & performance & effective management types & styles. Learn how-to maintain consistent customer satisfaction & sales & most of all… loving yourself thru all the joys & challenges!
Remember, a lot of businesses fizzle as ‘romantic’ ideas. Sometimes, an idea is good & sometimes it isn’t & everything is good until it isn’t!!! It takes chops to build your freedom & even when you get there, you’re tied to lawyers, accountants, investors, advisors, etc.! I invite you to walk thru the realities of founding a fruitful, small business to a multi-million dollar company… from purchasing an existing business to flowing an idea from inception to maturity. I will also share the wins & losses, of my entrepreneurial career & experiences.
