Gratitude
Last week brought an unexpected delight – a call from Kurt, a former colleague I hadn’t connected with in over a decade. As we reminisced about old times and caught up on each other’s lives, I was deeply touched when Kurt expressed his gratitude for the impact I had on his career and personal growth. His heartfelt acknowledgment reignited my passion for mentorship and coaching, reminding me of the profound joy that comes from guiding others toward success.
Kurt’s call was a poignant reminder of the many colleagues and mentees who have inspired me over the years. Each interaction, each shared triumph, has fueled my dedication to supporting others in reaching their full potential. Kurt, your words mean more to me than I can express, and I am committed to continuing to be there for you in your retirement and beyond.
Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your journey and for reminding me of the power of mentorship and human connection. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors, and I look forward to many more conversations and shared experiences in the years to come.
