She’s the 21-year-old founder of a fundraiser—a 10K standup paddle board ride—that’s raised over $15,000 for cancer research (Canadian Cancer Society), in honour of two lost friends.

So I had to [verbally] poke around her her head. Here’s what I learned:

  • How Maddi grew the lady-balls to put her idea out there
  • Maddi’s thoughts on rejection, confidence, and co-op hunting (they’re golden)
  • Her extra bits of Maddi’s tips on getting sponsors/partners to jump on your idea (edited out of the blog for length)
  • What used to stress her out (and me too)
  • An honest look at how this blog and On Board have helped me and Maddi get opportunities out of life (personal and professional) that we wouldn’t otherwise have gotten, even though we aren’t nearly world-class status

What are you waiting for?

Pop those earbuds in :)

Neil Craik is Director of the School of Environment, Enterprise and Development, he's a senior fellow with the Centre for International Governance Innovation, my law professor, and an all-around thoughtful leader. In this talk he shares with us his history as a practicing lawyer, why he quit and joined academia, how to get along with people, and his views on leadership. I really enjoyed the chat, and I hope you will too.

All the best,

Dana
