In this episode Stephanie and Canadian icon Marci Ien discuss her life and career. Being a political nerd, I was particularly interested in her recent career change from journalism to politics. We discuss how she found her voice, her authentic self, and how she is committed to using it. We discuss the changing moments of her career and highlights from encounters with Lionel Richie and Stevie Wonder, to making a difference with Raptors basketball. She chooses to lead for others, she inspires me to be a better human and fight for change. I can’t wait for you to dive into our interview!
