This episode will inspire, enlighten and educate. I sit down with Jill Nykoliation, a visionary leader in marketing and branding. Jill shares her journey from learning about branding at the family dinner table to becoming a trailblazer. She discusses her time at Queen's University, her rapid ascent at Kraft, and her bold decision to venture into advertising. Jill's 'Tall Grass' philosophy, which she developed through her experiences, encourages embracing the unknown and pushing boundaries. It's about not being afraid to stand out, even if it means being the tallest in the field. She candidly recounts her experiences navigating male-dominated environments and the challenges of starting her agency, Juniper Park. Jill's 'Refounding' philosophy is about reinventing oneself, especially in the face of struggle. It's a powerful concept that can help those struggling to find their footing.

Jill is a wonderful storyteller, teacher, healer, and human being. If her journey moves you as much as it did me, I urge you to share it with others and to leave room for magic.
