  • Water Is the Next Supply Chain: A Masterclass in Business Resilience
    Apr 3 2026

    What does water have to do with your business?

    More than you probably think.

    In this episode, we’re going to show you how water is already shaping your costs, your supply chains, and your ability to grow—whether you’re paying attention to it or not.

    Because the reality is:

    The companies that understand water as a strategic issue early are the ones that will be more resilient, more efficient, and better positioned for what’s coming next.

    This episode is a little different.

    Instead of a single conversation, we’ve pulled together some of the most valuable insights from past guests on The Resilience Report—leaders working across food, infrastructure, innovation, and strategy.

    Think of this as a masterclass.

    By the end, you’ll understand:

    • Where water is showing up as a hidden risk in business
    • How leading companies are turning that constraint into innovation
    • And what it looks like to treat water not just as a resource—but as a competitive advantage

    You’ll hear from Kendra MacDonald, CEO of the Canada's Ocean Supercluster, who breaks down how water underpins entire economic systems.

    From Tatiana Estevez, founder of Permalution, who’s building technology to generate water in places where it doesn’t exist.

    From Callie Giaccone, formerly from Lufa Farms, who’s rethinking how we grow food using closed-loop water systems.

    And from Marie-Chantal Savoy, founder of Savoy Strategy, who brings the leadership lens—how trust and decision-making shape the systems behind it all.

    What ties all of these conversations together is simple:

    Water is no longer just a background input.

    It’s becoming a constraint.
    A catalyst.
    And in many cases—a competitive advantage.

  • AI & Sustainable Business: Inevitable Tech, Intentional Choices ft. Lauren Scott
    Mar 18 2026

    AI is here—and for business leaders, the question is no longer if we use it, but how we use it responsibly.

    In the first solo episode of 2026, host Lauren Scott explores the evolving relationship between AI and sustainable business. From energy efficiency to data transparency and workforce transitions, AI is reshaping how companies operate—but it also raises new environmental, ethical, and leadership questions.

    Lauren breaks down four areas where AI and sustainability intersect:

    • Efficiency and the risk of the rebound effect
    • Data transparency and sustainability reporting
    • The environmental impact of AI infrastructure
    • The human side of technological transition

    Drawing on her experience working in the tech sector, Lauren shares a balanced perspective: AI isn’t the hero or the villain of sustainability—it’s a tool that scales the values businesses already hold.

    The episode closes with three leadership principles for navigating AI responsibly:

    • Think about intent before implementation
    • Build guardrails for sustainable growth
    • Keep human accountability in decision-making

    If you're navigating the future of business, sustainability, or technology, this episode offers a thoughtful starting point for a conversation that’s only just beginning.

  • Building Financial Resilience: Philanthropy, Risk & Legacy Planning ft. Mark Halpern
    Feb 25 2026

    So many of us avoid conversations about wills, estate planning, and what happens after we’re gone. It can feel uncomfortable, morbid — or like something we’ll just “get to later.” But the truth is, these are some of the most important conversations we can have if we want to protect our families and create impact that lasts.

    My guest today, Mark Halpern, has built his life’s work around helping people move from simply achieving success to creating significance. He’s one of Canada’s leading experts in using life insurance, tax strategy, and philanthropy not just to preserve wealth, but to unlock opportunities for meaningful giving. His guidance has already helped direct more than $300 million to Canadian charities — while helping families feel more secure, more prepared, and more intentional about their legacies.

    This episode is about getting comfortable with the planning most of us avoid — and seeing how estate planning, when done thoughtfully, can protect the people we love and support the causes that matter most to us.
