Your roots are not your limits: Why Where You Begin Doesn't Define Where You End Up
What if the only thing standing between a local idea and global impact is the story we tell ourselves about what's possible? Our opening keynote speaker shares her journey from Saskatchewan roots to building world-class companies, offering an honest look at ambition, resilience, and why where you start should never determine how far you can go.
