Michelle Cederberg: Ignite High Performance

02/17/2025

Sunday in the studio to shoot video #1 of a new series. Delivery was simplified because got me set up with one of his excess teleprompters...


.. and Islay provided extra sound damping (and cuteness).

Stay tuned for a discussion around 'Technostress' and what to do about it.

Despite Islay's expression, she's much happier at -25°C than I am.

When Suzannah Baum visits from Montreal, it's always necessary to connect for dinner out in Calgary with the gals.

This time, it was yummy Thai with this crew: Robin O'Grady Andrea Holwegner RD Tina Varughese Patricia Morgan Jennifer Buchanan, Music Therapist

We missed you Brandi Heather & Kimberly Lyall - Motivational Speaker 💓

Great food, conversation, and laughs!

It was very cold today with my Montreal friend , but the sunshine and blue skies made up for the chill.

That and all the catching up we had to do! 😄

The great thing about being home and not having to prep for the next trip is that I have time to 'putter' in the kitchen.

Today's outcome: Curried chicken pot pie... the BEST way to use up extra chicken (happy to share the recipe) 😍

This afternoon was our first family ride since 's knee replacement early November.

It was nice to ride together again, and the trails have snow on them ... so BONUS!

That Friday feeling!

This pic is a throwback to convention Foundation night fundraiser (and my thrill at successfully upbidding and then walking away... it's a skill 😏) ...

And, after several weeks of back-to-back travel, I now get to be home for a few weeks with my hubby and my dog, which makes me as happy as I look in this picture.

Shout out to Layne (sparkling to the right) whose inaugural calling of the fundraiser helped us raise more money, have more fun, and give in a way that didn't feel icky (because we've all sat through live auctions like THAT).

Have a great weekend friends.

Heading home, feeling grateful. Also, this is the longest TSA Pre ✔️ line I've ever seen 😅

02/03/2025

I'm putting this here for me 😅. I'm on the road again, and I'm feeling the impact of back-to-back weeks of travel.

It's good though, because I'm doing what I love. So even though fatigue is setting in, I'm going to own my awesome because I've been working my a** off to get these opportunities. 👊😏

Also, after this week, I get a wee break.

What AWESOME are you owning this week? Let's kick this week on its shiny butt, shall we?

I had the great honour of being a guest on my friend and colleague Ravi Tangri, soulgineer podcast... talking about the Power of the Strategic 'No'. I've been having so many conversations with people lately about this very topic, so if you need some insights on how to say NO with grace and confidence (so you can say yes to yourself), give this episode a listen.

Join us as we dive into a thought-provoking conversation with Michelle Cederberg, a renowned Hall of Fame speaker and expert in health and productivity. Disc...

It doesn't matter how comfortable and confident I am with my keynote content (say that 6 times fast 😏), I still have to run through my slides several times in the lead up to an event, and one more time the night before I speak.

Every group I speak for is different, so every slide deck gets tweaked to fit the needs of the meeting and attendees, and I want to remind myself of the flow.

The final run-through actually helps me sleep better, and I'm convinced that the content embeds in my brain while I sleep 😴

And if you've ever seen me verbalize the equation down there 👇, you know that performance didn't happen overnight 😉

I don't love shopping, so if I need stuff, it's good to hang out with , who knows her stuff.

Also, dinner was some of the best hand-made pasta we've ever had (so good!).

And, pool is pretty at night.

Days off are seriously exhausting.

Because I'm speaking in Phoenix Monday, my friend flew down from Anchorage (where they moved in July) for a Scottsdale girls weekend. Yay us!

Breakfast, lots of walking, lunch (+ Margaritas), poolside beverages too... and not shown, a bunch of shopping, talking, hot tub, and warm weather that Calgary and Alaska don't have right now.

So excited to be part of this event for , connecting with women in leadership at their convention in Dallas next week.

Thank you for sponsoring books for all attendees too. It's going to be a great time with laughs and learning aplenty!

What a great morning with an amazing audience for AmRisc. I have to say that the opening keynote spot is my jam!

I shared 'Energized for Excellence' with 700 fun and attentive folks, and we had a lot of laughs with the learning.

It was great to watch Jeff Toister do his thing , and emcee Alex bought the laughs.

HUGE shoutout to Travis, Brooke, Ashley, and Stacey for pulling together such a wonderful event. It was a true pleasure to work with you all.

Days like this make me love my job even more.

Now off to Phoenix!

You know what you need to do to crush that goal, don't you.

So, what are you waiting for?

You don't need more prep time. You don't need anyone's permission. You don't need to wait until you're less busy.

And you sure as heck don't need to spend another minute questioning your ability to get that s**t done.

If you had it in you to dream it the first place, you have it in you to do it. Now. Period.

Now that we're clear on that, dig in and do the freakin' work.

Night ride for the win! After a long work day, Michele and I decided a fatbike ride was necessary, so we grabbed our lights and hit Eastlands.

The weather was ideal, trails are in great condition, night riding is very fun, and we both agreed it's the best way to end a busy day!

Islay hopes your day is great. That is all.
