Heroes Among Us | 03 Aug 2026
What makes a hero? Last meeting, three incredible speakers proved that heroism isn’t about superpowers. It is about the quiet courage to face our fears, extend empathy, and redefine our limits!
🙋♀️ Katie Chan — “Character Development”
Katie reflected on transitioning to corporate life by embracing uncomfortable new challenges, highlighting her journey of overcoming intense fear during a university acrobatics class. She ultimately discovered that real personal growth comes from enduring discomfort and showing up consistently rather than achieving instant perfection.
🙋♀️ Lucy Morris — “Giving the Benefit of the Doubt”
Lucy challenged our default instinct to assume the worst when someone’s behavior changes unexpectedly by highlighting the unseen personal circumstances driving their actions. She proved that true leadership means pausing to question our assumptions and seeking to understand before passing judgment.
🙋♀️ Christy Chan — “Breaking Stories We Tell Ourselves”
Christy shared how self-limiting internal narratives hold us back, revealing that fear delayed her debut speech for a year despite her business success. She ultimately conquered the stage by questioning labels, acting despite fear, starting small, and celebrating every milestone.
We also want to give a big shout-out to Andrew Yeung DTM for giving us a fantastic workshop on evaluation. Let’s put these learnings into our work and be our own heroes! 🚀
