Chatter that Matters

Myra Sable - What the World Needs Now


Listen Later

Today's episode marks my 200th episode of Chatter that Matters. My guest is the marvellous Myra Sable, who, in her eighties, continues to build her gourmet food company, Sable and Rosenfeld, while being a warrior for a better world. And stick around as I introduce her Grandson Julien Sable Alvarado later in the show. Julien is taking over the business.

Mark Twain once said that age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. Many over sixty would agree, but what about people younger? Do many view older people like they view products in the grocery store marked past due?

One of my goals this year is to counter ageism by sharing stories like this. Myra has been an entrepreneur for over fifty years; work is still her passion and pleasure. We go back to her early days, the many industry tycoons she had to win over, and the shelves she sought worldwide for her delicious condiments and products to today. There are several life lessons in how to dream, do and build. We also experience a different side of Myra - the matriarch of her family, a fearless feminist, and an advocate for a better Canada.

We then shift to a love story between Grandmother and Grandson when Julien joins the show. Hearing them talk to each other is magical, and you will walk away with remarkable insights into building powerful relationships across generations.

Grab some Scottie tissues, as you might cry for joy.

Thank you, Myra and Julien, for making my 200th episode memorable.

I then bring on Prashant Patel from RBC's Wealth Management Group. I wanted to know what is involved in a family business when the goal is to pass the torch versus sell.
