New Content Strategy: More Videos, More Value!

I’m making a shift in how I share insights on project management, risk management, and leadership.

Instead of weekly blog posts, I’ll now shift some focus to YouTube while keeping blogs every other week

Why? Because:

👉🏼 Videos allow for more in-depth breakdowns & real-world examples
👉🏼 You can learn on the go—whether you’re commuting or grabbing coffee
👉🏼 I want to ensure that everything I create truly helps you grow

New Schedule:

  • Weekly YouTube Videos
  • Bi-Weekly Blog Articles

Are You (or Someone You Know) Preparing for the PMP Exam?

The PMP exam is no joke. Many candidates unknowingly make critical mistakes that derail their success.

In this week’s YouTube video, I reveal the 5 most common PMP exam prep mistakes—and how to avoid them:
🔶 Relying on a single study resource (huge mistake!)


🔶 Underestimating the exam’s tricky scenario-based questions

🔶 Struggling with time management during prep & the test

🔶 Neglecting to strengthen your project management foundation

🔶 Skipping practice questions that mimic real exam difficulty

If you or someone you know is studying for the PMP—or know someone who is—this video is a must-watch.
