    Marketing Unfiltered: What's Working, What's Not & What's Next!
    Oct 28 2026
    🎙️ SEASON 3 FINALE IS LIVE! Marketing Unfiltered: What's Working, What's Not & What's Next Three marketers. Three perspectives. Zero filters. 🔥 What a ride it's been! ❤️ When Lisa Thompson launched The Exec Hotseat Podcast, she knew she wanted to do things a little differently - bringing together great people, sharing real stories, and having a whole lot of fun along the way! When the opportunity to create a special RRC Polytech Alumni Series came together, so did three fellow alumni - Lisa Thompson, Amanda Buhse, and Tineke Buiskool-Leeuwma - each bringing their own personalities, perspectives, and talents to the adventure. Together, with the incredible support of RRC Polytech, the @BRD team and a few special collaborators, we celebrated remarkable alumni, shared inspiring entrepreneurial journeys, and shone a spotlight on people doing amazing things in our communities. From unforgettable conversations and plenty of laughs to new friendships, road trips, conferences, events, behind-the-scenes adventures, and a whole lot of podcasting - what an incredible chapter it's been! As we wrap up Season 3, our RRC Polytech Alumni Series, and this special partnership, we thought, what better way to celebrate than to turn the microphones on ourselves for one final episode together? ___ 🔥 Marketing Unfiltered: What's Working, What's Not & What's Next This time, Lisa, Amanda, and Tineke are all in the Hotseat for a candid marketing roundtable about the ever-changing world of branding, social media, entrepreneurship, content creation, and AI. Three different marketing backgrounds, plenty of opinions, and absolutely no shortage of things to say! 😉 Here's what we're getting into: ✨ What's actually working in marketing today? What's worth investing in, and what's just noise? ✨ Social media in 2026: Is organic reach still worth the effort? Do businesses really need to be everywhere? ✨ Branding vs. marketing: What's the difference, and why does getting it right matter? ✨ AI and creativity: Where is AI helping marketers, and where are we losing the human touch? ✨ Authenticity and storytelling: Why personality, connection, and showing up as yourself are becoming more valuable than ever. ✨ Starting from scratch: If we were launching a business today with no audience, no connections, and no budget, what would we do differently? We're sharing what we're seeing in our own businesses, what we're learning from clients, and a few marketing trends we're ready to leave behind! The biggest takeaway? Great marketing doesn't have to be complicated. It just needs to connect. Whether you're a business owner, entrepreneur, marketing professional, or simply wondering what the heck you're supposed to be doing on social media these days, this episode is for you! ❤️ A special thank you To RRC Polytech, thank you for believing in our vision and supporting this incredible journey. Your partnership helped us celebrate fellow alumni, amplify inspiring stories, and connect with so many remarkable people. To every guest who joined us in the Hotseat, shared their journey, and trusted us with their story — THANK YOU! And to everyone who listened, shared an episode, left a comment, attended an event, or cheered us on, we couldn't have done it without you! Finally, to Amanda and Tineke, thank you for bringing your creativity, energy, humour, and talents to this special series. From the studio to the road and everywhere in between, it's been an absolute blast! We can't wait to see what you're up to next and cheer you on! Our Alumni Series and this special chapter together may be coming to a close, but the friendships, connections, and memories will last well beyond the final episode. ❤️ 🎧 Listen to our Season 3 finale NOW on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, or your favourite podcast platform. And while one incredible chapter is ending, The Exec Hotseat story is far from over. Season 4? We're shaking things up.

    30 - From City Hall to being in the Hotseat: What Leadership Really Looks Like with Sherri Rollins!
    Sep 24 2026
    From City Hall to being in the Hotseat: What Leadership Really Looks Like with Sherri Rollins! What does it actually take to lead a city? In this episode of The Exec Hotseat Podcast, Amanda Buhse sits down with Winnipeg City Councillor Sherri Rollins, who represents Fort Rouge–East Fort Garry, for a candid conversation about leadership, politics, public service, influence, and the realities of making decisions that impact an entire city. Sherri brings a refreshingly honest perspective to what happens behind the scenes at City Hall — from potholes and public safety to housing, infrastructure, permitting, taxation, major capital projects, and the complicated realities of municipal government. She also opens up about the personal side of leadership: the sacrifices, the scrutiny, the pressure, the importance of knowing when to ask for help, and what public service can cost you personally. And, true to Sherri's personality, there are plenty of laughs along the way — including gardening, hockey-mom life, painting portraits of her husband, luxury candles, her love of policy, and her dog, Truth Bader Ginsburg. 😂 In this episode, Sherri and Amanda talk about: What Sherri's life looks like beyond being a city councillorHow her background in conflict resolution and work with national inquiries shaped her leadershipWhat surprised her most when she first stepped into municipal politicsWhat a real week looks like for a city councillorThe reality of responding to emergencies, resident concerns, infrastructure issues and major city projects How she handles criticism and making decisions that not everyone agrees withWhat people misunderstand about how City Hall actually worksWhy municipal issues are often much more complicated than they appearHousing, homelessness, public safety and permittingThe challenges surrounding major infrastructure and capital projectsWhat strong leadership looks like in an increasingly divided environmentWhy leaders need to think beyond the next election cycleWhether women lead differently in politicsThe importance of collaboration, coalition-building and bringing community voices to the tableThe personal sacrifices that come with public leadershipSafety, scrutiny and the difficulty of truly "turning off" when you're in public officeWhy Sherri believes aspiring leaders need to know what they want to DO with the jobHer advice for women who may feel intimidated, underqualified or hesitant to step into leadership One of our favourite takeaways: "It shouldn't be what you want to be. It should be what you want to do." For Sherri, leadership isn't about having the title. It's about having a clear sense of purpose, understanding the community you're serving, and knowing what you want to accomplish with the opportunity you've been given. This is a candid, funny and surprisingly personal conversation about what leadership really looks like when the cameras aren't on.

    29 - "Startup Mom" to Ecosystem Builder: Joelle Foster on Taking the Leap, Supporting Entrepreneurs, and Daring to Do!
    Sep 9 2026
    "Startup Mom" to Ecosystem Builder: Joelle Foster on Taking the Leap, Supporting Entrepreneurs, and Daring to Do! Featuring: Joelle Foster, President & CEO of North Forge In our latest episode of @exechotseatpodcast, Lisa Thompson and Amanda Buhse sit down with Joelle Foster, President and CEO of North Forge, entrepreneur, mentor, advocate, and one of the driving forces behind Manitoba's startup ecosystem. With a career spanning television, entrepreneurship, Futurepreneur, the University of Calgary, and the creation of North Forge, Joelle has spent decades helping entrepreneurs turn ideas into real businesses. She shares the lessons she's learned from working with more than 800 founders, including one quality she believes every successful entrepreneur needs: coachability. From taking on leadership roles before she felt ready, to moving her family to Calgary, returning home to Winnipeg, and helping build North Forge into one of Canada's most unique innovation hubs, Joelle's story is a powerful reminder that sometimes you have to take the leap before you feel completely prepared. The conversation also gets personal, as Joelle opens up about becoming a mother through adoption, how motherhood shaped her leadership style, and how the nickname "Startup Mom" came from the fiercely protective way she advocates for the entrepreneurs she believes in. Lisa, Amanda, and Joelle explore everything from entrepreneurship and funding to AI, women in tech, mentorship, financial literacy, and the importance of human connection in an increasingly digital world. At its core, this episode is about having the courage to begin, staying open to feedback, and doing the hard, unglamorous work required to build something real. Key Highlights: 🗝️ Why coachability, emotional intelligence, and being willing to check your ego are critical traits for entrepreneurs 🗝️ What Joelle learned from stepping into major leadership roles before she felt completely ready — and why sometimes you just have to take the leap 🗝️ The personal story behind Joelle's "Startup Mom" nickname and how her experience as a mother has shaped the way she supports entrepreneurs 🗝️ Why understanding your customers and listening to the market can be more important than being in love with your original idea 🗝️ How Manitoba's startup ecosystem works together to support founders through mentorship, funding, networking, and specialized programming 🗝️ Why AI is creating both more opportunity and more competition — and why soft skills, empathy, communication, and critical thinking still matter 🗝️ Joelle's advice for anyone who feels like they aren't ready yet: the worst that can happen is someone can say no 🗝️ What "Dare to Do" really means - and why building a business requires doing the hard, unglamorous, customer-facing work Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur, an established business owner, a young professional, or simply someone who needs a reminder to take the leap, Joelle brings an honest, energetic, and deeply human perspective on what it takes to move an idea forward. 👉 Connect with Joelle: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joellefoster/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/northforgemb/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/northforgemb/ Website: https://www.northforge.ca/ Email: jfoster@northforge.ca Sign up for the North Forge newsletter to stay connected to Manitoba's tech-enabled innovation ecosystem and upcoming opportunities.

  • 25 - From Handmade Beginnings to Market Success: Rachael Hatala on Craft, Creativity, and Building The Laughing Sparrow

    25 - From Handmade Beginnings to Market Success: Rachael Hatala on Craft, Creativity, and Building The Laughing Sparrow
    Mar 24 2026

    Featuring: Rachael Hatala, Founder and Designer of The Laughing Sparrow

    In this episode of The Exec Hotseat Podcast, Lisa Thompson and Amanda Buhse sit down with Calgary entrepreneur Rachael Hatala, the creative force behind The Laughing Sparrow. Known for her minimalist, handcrafted jewelry and bold personality, Rachael has built a brand that blends artistry with entrepreneurship while staying fiercely true to her values.

    Rachael's journey started early. At just twelve years old, she sold her first handmade jewelry piece in her grandmother's store. Years later, after becoming a mother, she made the decision to turn her passion for creating into a full-time business. What began as a side hobby evolved into a thriving brand built through artisan markets, trade shows, and a commitment to craftsmanship.

    In this conversation, Rachael shares the realities of running a handmade business. From traveling across Canada for markets to personally crafting every piece she sells, she offers a candid look at what it takes to grow while staying authentic. She also reflects on the pressures of entrepreneurship, the importance of community, and why creativity should never be forced just to follow trends.

    Key Highlights:
    🗝️ Why Rachael believes creatives should "jump off the cliff" and figure it out along the way
    🗝️ The truth about artisan markets and why persistence matters more than instant success
    🗝️ How staying true to craftsmanship and quality helped The Laughing Sparrow stand out

    If you're an entrepreneur, creative maker, or anyone curious about building a business from passion, this episode offers an honest and inspiring look behind the scenes.

  • 24 - From Basement Sing-Alongs to the Jumbotron: Lisa Windsor on Confidence, Music, and Owning the Stage

    24 - From Basement Sing-Alongs to the Jumbotron: Lisa Windsor on Confidence, Music, and Owning the Stage
    Mar 17 2026

    Featuring: Lisa Windsor, lead singer of Mach 10, the official band of the Winnipeg Jets.

    In this episode of the Exec Hotseat Podcast, Lisa Windsor shares the story behind the voice that now energizes thousands of Jets fans every game night. Known for her powerhouse vocals and high-energy performances, Lisa has built a career performing across Manitoba with her band Flatland Famous and, more recently, with Mach 10 at Winnipeg Jets games.

    But her journey didn't start under arena lights. As a kid who often felt like an outsider, Lisa found refuge in music, singing along to cassette tapes in her basement. After being told at a young age that she "couldn't sing," it took years, supportive mentors, and a leap of courage to step onto a stage and discover her voice.

    Today, Lisa performs in front of packed arenas, working alongside a tight-knit group of bandmates who share her passion for music and live performance. In this conversation, she reflects on the nerves that still come before every show, the moments that make performing unforgettable, and the mindset shifts that helped her pursue opportunities instead of holding herself back.

    Key Highlights:
    🗝️ How a high school choir teacher changed the trajectory of her life
    🗝️ The journey from early self-doubt to performing in front of 15,000 fans
    🗝️ Why taking the chance is often more important than fearing failure

    Listen to the full episode to hear Lisa Windsor's inspiring story and the lessons she's learned along the way.
