Hi everyone! I’m Sehajpreet Kaur Sidhu, and I go by just Sehaj or Shaaz. I’m a 24-year-old international student from India. I’m from a small town in the state of Punjab, and I moved to Canada\u00a0in April’18. I started my MA Lead in May, and this is my fourth course in the program. Before starting this program I had just completed my Bachelors in Dental Surgery, and I’m still a registered dentist back in India, but I’ve decided to shift my career course to business and have left dentistry.<\/p>\n

In my family, I have my mother and father who are back in India and my elder brother who lives in Toronto, and I’m very close to all of them. I have learned the best lessons from my mother; she is in a real sense, my hero. She is the softest-strongest person I have ever come across, and I continuously try to be more like her because for me she defines perfection. I’m born into a Sikh family, so I follow the religion of Sikhism, but I firmly believe God is one. If I had to pick one practice to live by it will be practicing gratitude. Writing in my gratitude journal has dramatically changed my life. I’m a very happy, full of energy, eager to learn kind of a person. You will mostly see me smiling or eating (as I have an undeniable love for food).<\/p>\n

As I mentioned earlier, I just switched my career path so everything I’m learning\u00a0in the course is very new to me and I’m excited to learn more about it. A part of me is always scared and worried\u00a0that if this was the right decision or how will I make it work but my faith is greater then my fears, and this is what keeps me going. Also, there are many familiar faces in this course from 502, and a big hug to all of you and Hi to the new faces and I cannot wait to learn and grow with you all.<\/p>\n
