    Create Confidence – 2025 Theme Recap

    March 23, 2026 /

    Reflections on 2025: Creating Confidence It took me a while to publish this post. I guess it just slipped my mind—but nevertheless, here we go. I missed posting my theme for last year, but I’ve been applying it throughout the months. Looking back at how I measured up to my 2025 goals, I’d say I hit about 85% of them. While I didn’t quite achieve the primary goal of this theme, my health in general remained good, and for that, I am grateful. Why this theme? Personally, I wanted to be “Confident” in the way I look. I’ve struggled with being overweight for decades, and the journey to weight loss…

    March 16, 2026 /

    Inspired from the kickoff event od #MFCDubai this 2026, where we delved into Servant Leadership through a Servants Retreat.

A good servant leader in the context of Catholic faith demonstrates Christ-like values and embodies principles that inspire and support others, placing God’s will and the dignity of every person at the center of leadership. Here are the top ten characteristics of a Good Servant Leader:​ Top 10 Servant Leader Traits Humility Catholic servant leaders…
