Plugging in: The power of building relationships and connection
The biggest challenge each of us faces “these days” is that we’ve never been more disconnected, making it harder than ever to determine if we really, truly matter. But no matter what stage or what relationship we’re in, we can be our bravest if we start building connection.
In this powerful presentation, Dr. Jody Carrington will explore the importance of relationships. By learning how to help others and ourselves with our emotions, we can do the hard things and reconnect. We are all just walking each other home.

Ordinary Canadians. Extraordinary leadership
What does Canadian leadership look like? Is there something special and vital about leadership in this country? In this engrossing talk, based on his reporting from around the world, Peter Mansbridge offers accounts of extraordinary acts of leadership by ordinary Canadians at home and abroad. He speaks of stories of courage and selflessness, from Sri Lanka to the Netherlands, to our Indigenous communities, to show us that Canadian leadership is, at the core, about caring. It’s about being there for our neighbours down the street, across the country, or around the world, when and where they need us the most.
Hosted by Marty Seymour, FCC Director, Industry Relations, Talking Farm and Food podcast.
