  • It's not what happens to you, it's what you do about it

    What if what happens to you changes your life for the worse, twice, and forever?

    At age 27, Mitchell, a former US Marine, has a great job in San Francisco, achieved his first solo flight as part of his pilot training and is heading back home on his brand new motorcycle. Tragedy strikes when a truck sideswipes Mitchell, turning into a horrific accident where his gas tank explodes. Mitchell describes it as being a human bonfire and wakes up in the hospital badly burned, face permanently, disfigured, with stumps for fingers. After a long and painful road back, Mitchell becomes a successful entrepreneur and achieves his commercial pilot license. One morning, the unfairness of circumstance occurs when Mitchell is in a plane crash and loses his legs' use—forced into a wheelchair that he calls his prison.

    Mitchell's story is one of purpose and pursuit and not pity and of making choices. Mitchell, undefeated by his tragedies and will inspire you with his remarkable achievements including being a successful entrepreneur, a Mayor, running for Congress, and in the Hall of Fame for Motivational Speakers. Mitchell shares his thoughts on how and what we can do, to battle the circumstances of life. What you focus on in life is what you get back. What you concentrate on is who you will become.

    Amy Deacon, Clinical Social Worker, joins the show to discuss choice and why some succumb to painful circumstances, while others turn their pain into purpose.

  • Brooke Henderson. She has Heart and She has Game

    We didn't have a lot of money growing up or a family car, so sports was always pickup. It didn't shut down my imagination. Even under a streetlight in ball hockey, I was Guy Lafleur scoring the overtime goal or on a field, Joe Theismann throwing the winning pass. We played golf at the back of our high school with a course that included four holes and hours spent looking for balls the victim of errant shots.

    I always wondered what it would be to play at the highest level and be one who went from dreaming to doing to contending for the best in the world.

    This week on LIFE MATTERS, I chat with Brooke Henderson, who at 23 has won more major tournaments than any other Canadian golfer. Brooke has also won the Founders Award, voted on by her fellow players, as the person who best exemplifies the Game's values. We learn about what motivated her to take up golf, make tough decisions like turning pro or taking a golf scholarship, work within a family's dynamics - her sister is her Caddie, and her Father is her coach, and whether she feels she can continue to pursue her dream to be the best, now that she has fame, fortune and followers.

    For anyone who is chasing a dream, a podcast packed with incredible insights from Brooke Henderson, a golfer who has heart and Game.

  • LIFE MATTERS - Lest We Forget. The Kyle Davidson Story.

    Lest we Forget, how can I forget what I can't imagine? I watch war movies and documentaries, read books, but I have never seen, felt or experienced being in the military. I can't imagine being in a combat situation, where you share a collective goal with your enemy, to kill or be killed. Or your home is a trench of cold, wet mud, and your vista, a web of barbed wire with the same intention a spider has to catch a fly? Or the sounds of a shower of bullets heading your way, or the scream of a bomb above? I am eternally grateful for all who serve.

    This week on LIFE MATTERS, I chat with Kyle Davidson, who served in the Canadian Armed Forces for 11 years as a Combat Engineer. His path began with a stern lecture from a Judge and continued to a recruiting office where he signed up for duty.

    In 2011 Kyle fought in Afghanistan, and his responsibility was to clear the roads of bombs so that troops could deploy. Twice Kyle felt the full force of an explosion. First, when an armoured vehicle he was in blew up, and second when he stepped on a mine that sent him flying into rocks. Kyle suffered severe brain trauma and an option to return home. He refused because he refused to leave others behind.

    Kyle also hid the impact of his brain injury for years because he loved his job. Eventually, he could no longer serve, so Kyle found a new mission; to help other VETS, who return less than healthy, to find their way back into society.

    Lisa Taylor from the Challenge Factory joins the show to talk about the vital role veterans can play in the workforce. Bruce Robinson from RBC shares his story of growing up with Kyle Davidson and what he admires most about this extraordinary individual.

  • LIFE MATTERS - Bryan Baeumler, Building the Impossible Dream

    How many of you have dreamed about making a significant life change. You might be holding a freshly printed lottery ticket, or on vacation immersing yourself in a new culture. Some might not have a choice as an unforeseen circumstance has impacted your or your families life. I know the Pandemic has motivated me to rethink and reprioritize what matters most.

    Today I meet up with the extraordinary Bryan Baeumler. Bryan went from hammering nails at age 14, as he built his cottage from the ground up, to hammering out international TV and business deals. What you might now know is that to do so, Bryan had to overcome severe anxieties. He didn't want to leave his home, let alone stand in front of a TV camera.

    On the show, I chat with Bryan about his success, the values he learned from his parents, and how he managed to wrestle his anxieties to the ground. We then talk about a five-minute decision that he took with his wife Sarah that turned their entire life upside down.

    Megan Newman from RBC joins me at the end of the show to talk about how many dreams can become realities if you plan and then work your plan.

  • LIFE MATTERS - Mark Henick to the edge and back

    Is Destiny a matter of choice or chance? Mark Henick has his first mental health crisis in Grade 6 and by Grade 8 he tried suicide for the first time. By age 15 Mark's life was like a Yo-Yo bouncing out of psychiatric wards, with treatment often involving a cocktail of drugs.

    At Age 15 Mark's mental state was at a point where he felt he had only one choice and that was his Life or Death. He chose death and ended up on the wrong side of an overpass, perched on a few inches of concrete, looking down a tunnel that he hoped would end his pain. That night, by chance and he ended up one night feeling his only thing he had a choice in. Life and death. He chose death and found himself standing on the wrong side of an overpass to end his life. By chance, two people were there. One yelled 'JUMP YOU COWARD' and the other, a man in a light brown jacket, saved his life. That experience showed Mark he did have a choice. To live his life like the man who saved him versus the many. that baited him.

    Fast forward to today, and Mark is combining his personal experiences with his mental health, combined with his education and passion to help others and to be one of Canada's leading advocates on mental health.

    Mark's TED talk on his story is one of the most popular of all time.

  • LIFE MATTERS - Orlando Bowen -Gamechanger

    In LIFE MATTERS, Tony Chapman counters the firehose of negativity that is impacting our lives and careers, with positive stories of ordinary people, who despite their circumstances do extraordinary things. In doing so we learn life lessons that we can apply.

    What would you do if you were Orlando Bowen? Orlando was a professional CFL football player whose career, and almost life ended by being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Orlando was given a severe beating at the hands of bad cops. Instead of seeing himself as the victim, or becoming obsessed with revenge and redemption, Orlando used his experience to further his quest to empower the youth and to bridge the divides that divide society.

    Show Notes:

    In this podcast, we first cover the backstory of Orlando Bowen, and how his life had everything he desired. A wife, child and one on the way, a contract extension with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats, and a life where his spare time was spent doing community service.

    All of this changed, and instantly when Orlando Bowen was severely beaten by two corrupt police officers. What Orlando does after his horrific experience is remarkable.

    This podcast Orlando Bowen - Gamechanger will leave you inspired and with valuable lessons in life.

    Gopal Bansal from RBC joins me at the end of the program to offer his ideas on how we can open our minds to more diversity and inclusion.

  • Your health means the world to Paul

    Paul Rivett-Carnac's parents met on a herbalist walk on Vancouver Island in the late 1970s. That walk led them to pursue a lifetime passion for healing rooted in nature. Together they moved to Ontario and St Francis Herb Farm was born. What began as a business selling herbs and tinctures to Naturopaths and Health Food Stores has grown into a family-owned business that is truly a farm, to having its own branded products on shelf and online.

    Today St Francis Herb Farm is now run and soon to be entirely owned by their son Paul, and his wife, Caitlin. Paul, who grew up playing on the farm, learning to drive tractors at age 12, now has ambitions to take this Canadian family business global, while providing purposeful jobs to Barry's Bay and a future for their children. To do so, Paul and Caitlin are investing in new infrastructure, exploring new channels to market, while still maintaining the roots of their business - certified organic and being in a constant conversation with nature. Attracting talent, customers, and capital is vital. Angela Donnelly, the founder of Corethentic, shares her thoughts on how Paul can grow his culture and his team. Es Rottschafer, a brilliant strategist and founder of Fieldmarshal, provides her insights and watch-outs for building brands in the crowded wellness space. Andrew Staniforth, Vice President CFS, from RBC who supports the agriculture segment, advises on how St Francis Herb Farm can capitalize on their growth.

    Presented by RBC.

    Deep Roots (01:17) Paul's parents started farming herbs and experimenting with herbal remedies while living on Vancouver Island, eventually moving to Ontario to start St Francis Farms when he was 6 years old. The herb business takes hold and they soon begin distributing herbs to health food stores across Canada. Making their own herbal-based products is the next evolution.

    Family business in transition (05:45) Paul and his wife Caitlin are on the process of taking the business over from Paul's parents, all the while ensuring they keeping their focus on quality and looking for opportunities to expand. Plans are afoot to expand their processing facility and increase their direct to consumer distribution.

    Growing up and growing out (03:42) As the business grows, so does the complexity and becoming a global leader will not be easy. Scaling the business, while maintaining its essence and continuing to focus on quality will be key. Paul needs to evolve his leadership and learn to trust more and continue to surround himself with great people.

    Advice for Paul (10:28) Angela Donnelly, Founder of Corethentic, highlight to Paul that trust is a critical capability for a leader, requiring a preparedness to be able to suspend your need to control an outcome. Es Rottschafer, Co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer, Fieldmarshal, suggests taking the time to understand the fundamentals of who you want to sell to and the values and perspectives they have around health. Andrew Staniforth, Vice President CFS, RBC acknowledges trade financing will be key to Paul's desires for global expansion.

    My closing thoughts (24:20) Connected to family, across generations, the community and nature will continue to be the foundation to Pauls' success. Paul's higher ambition is not his global ambitions but rather using nature to heal us all. Your health means the world to Paul!

  • Sewn in Canada?

    If you believe that Canada can't compete in the design and creation of wonderful garments, then I encourage you to listen to this episode. And if you ever question the value of immigration, then I suggest you listen to it twice. For everyone else, get ready for some goosebumps, and some incredible advice from one of the worlds thought leaders on fashion, Jeanne Beker, as well as David Kincaid, a business and branding strategist who has guided the positioning of some of the world's top companies and Lori Darlington from RBC.

    Kathy Cheng emigrated from Hong Kong to Canada in the 1970s with her parents. To make ends meet, her Dad worked three jobs, sewing in a factory, delivering pizza at night, and waiting on tables, and her Mom wasn't far behind. There was no money for child care. Kathy was a latch-key kid who grew up watching her parents work. Over time Kathy's father and two siblings saved enough to start their own sewing shop, and within a decade, they employed 500 Canadians. Fast-forward to today, and Kathy is now the CEO, her Dad is her partner and they still sew everything in Canada.

    Is it easy? No, but it's never been easy for Kathy and her family. Is it possible to defy the odds and keep Canadians employed in designing and manufacturing in the garment trade? Absolutely if Canadians support theirs and others, Canadian Dreams.

    Presented by RBC.

    Coming to Canada (01:03) Having emigrated from China at the age of 4 with her parents, Kathy, learnt to be independent and resourceful, in a new country, learning a new language. After working multiple jobs Kathy's parents decide to open up their own business with 10 sewing machines and 5 staff. It's a small start but they grow quickly.

    From boom to almost bust (04:13) Their business grows to over 500 people, manufacturing for some of Canada's most iconic brands as well as expanding into the US. When China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, competition increased putting pressure on their business and after the 2008 crash, things got worse. However, to her surprise, Kathy's father asks her to be his business partner.

    The revival (07:22) Together, they restructure the business around 40 people, focus on quality versus fast fashion and leverage the Made in Canada "label". The strategy pays off and the business flourishes once again, now they have their own brand, Redwood Classics. As the business continues to grow what should focus on? Our experts step in.

    Sound advice (11:15) Lori Darlington, VP, Small Business & Strategic Partnerships, RBC, compliments Kathy's focus and commitment to "Made in Canada" - it's a significant differentiator. David Kincaid, Founder & Managing Partner, Level5 Strategy, challenges Kathy to step up to that next level and declare her vision and answer that question: What business do I want my business to be? Jeanne Beker, Style Editor at TSC & Creative Director gives Kathy a big idea: team up with a local fashion school and invite students to design a garment, injection a little edge into the design.

    My closing thoughts (29:07) There is so much more inside of Kathy Cheng - that's her North Star. " …stop focusing on what you make and instead focus on the moments that fashion will be." Own the moment, as it's not about what you sell but instead, the feeling people experience when they wear your garmets, that's your quest.

  • A Mad Scientist succeeding in a Mad, Mad World
    Electrify your day by listening to the story of Connie Stacey who calls herself a Mad Scientist and for a good reason. Connie is an inventor with a brain, burning to solve some of the world's most pressing problems. In this episode, we look at her Grengine, a solar-powered generator that addresses energy poverty.

    One-seventh of the world lives without power, and cooks and heats with biomass fuels, which are horrible for their health and the planet. This episode is a powerful and telling tale of the challenges entrepreneurs face when marketing and selling their Canadian technology across the world, combined with Connie's charm and self-deprecating humour.

    To help Connie with her global quest, we have Mairead Lavery, Export Development Canada's passionate CEO. Also, Dan Sorotschynski, one of Canada's leading global marketers, shares his experiences on how to go global. Sid Paquette, who leads the Technology and Innovation practice for RBC offer his thoughts on how to think and be big.

    Presented by, RBC.

    Get ready to listen, laugh and learn with insights for all.

    A walk in the neighbourhood sparks an idea (00:46) Connie takes her twin boys for a stroll around the neighbourhood. Spotting an old and noising diesel generator she beings to wonder if there is a better solution. After chatting to friends about using batteries instead, there is still a problem - how does one recharge it? Connie's has an idea. What if you could swap batteries like Lego blocks…her journey to create Grengine begins

    From dreams to reality (04:13) Connie sees the challenge of power supply on a global scale, she wants to solve every poverty globally. Connie has dreamt big, but can she make her dreams a reality? With the support of her wife, she goes all in to create a battery system that doesn't need electricians or technicians. Underpinned by a triple bottom line, people plant, profit, she perseveres and builds Grengine. After winning a US Defense competition, her dreams become reality.

    Growing up (10:21) With support from Export Development Canada (EDC) and Alberta Innovates, Connie's business grows up and out but with growth, comes complexity. Connie wants to own 100% of her business but needs advice on how she can finance her growth without giving her business away. Going global and positioning her brand amongst many competitors is key for her continued success. Luckily, help is on the way.

    Advice to match Connies ambitions (13:48) Sid Paquette, Head, Venture Capital and Innovation, RBC - in order to grow and go global, Connie may have to reconsider her stance on 100% ownership. Her ambitions require specialized talent, and the level of talent acquired by offering equity. Dan Sorotschynski, Brand Marketing Executive, suggested Connie establish a clearer value proposition and continue to sustain the people component that is behind her brand. Mairead Lavery, President & CEO, Export Development Canada, reminds Connie not to forget her ambition and to surround her self with advisors to assist her as she grows.

    Here's to Connie (28:19) I would love Connie to follow in the footstep of other great Canadian companies, like Blackberry and Nortel and Bombardier and conquer the world. It is not an easy path you have chosen, but it yours. You have turned your dreams into reality and with your passion and the mind of a mad scientist, I eagerly look forward to following your journey as a passionate Canadian entrepreneur. Here's to Connie.
