Thank you,
@GurdeepPandher
! So incredible to see you speak and present this week. Definitely a keynote to remember!
It makes me joyful when I hear organizations making efforts to take care of their employee's mental wellbeing. Today, it was my honour to deliver a virtual keynote from my cabin on "Joy, Hope and Positivity through Movement" to the staff at Douglas College in greater Vancouver.
