In the final episode of this special series, I interview Bean Gill and Nancy Morrow, co-founders of ReYu, a neuro-recovery center based in Edmonton, Alberta. ReYu helps kids and adults with neurological conditions retrain their nervous systems through expert rehab and one-on-one therapy. Inspired by Bean's personal journey after she was paralyzed, she not only discovered the benefits of activity-based therapy but also met her co-founder, Nancy, a kinesiology student at the time. Together, they realized the immense need for a centre like this to help others beyond traditional physiotherapy and have since helped nearly 500 people, with clients travelling from places as far as Switzerland to access their services. Bean and Nancy share their journey opening a new business, the challenge of dealing with the Canadian healthcare system, and their hopes to open more centres throughout Canada in the future.

Is it possible to be sustainable and profitable as a business? Michelle Wong, founder of Bo, a software company focused on reusable containers, is on the podcast to share just how possible it is to run a green business. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, after a decade working a 9-to-5 in sales for an industrial cleaning solutions company, Michelle realized she wasn’t fulfilled in her career. That’s when she decided to start her entrepreneurial journey, which started with a tutoring franchise but pivoted into the reusable container space. Inspired by the increase in takeout due to the pandemic, she saw how big a need there was for a sustainable solution for food packaging. Since then, Bo has scaled from restaurants to festivals and cafeterias, reducing waste and a reliance on single-use plastic. Michelle shares how her social mission has always been at the forefront of her business, what barriers she’s faced as a woman founder, and goals for the future.

Most entrepreneurs walk an unexpected path, and Ashley Werhun, founder of Mentorly, is the perfect case study. Starting out her career as a professional ballerina who toured the world and performed hundreds of shows per year, when it was finally time to hang up her ballet flats, she took a very different direction by becoming a tech founder. Seeing that there was a big need for mentorship, well beyond just ballet, Ashley founded Mentorly, a B2B mentorship program and learning and development platform, to help companies invest in their people by using smart mentor matching and AI that seamlessly integrates into existing HR tools. With her diverse background, Ashley not only shares how she was able to make such a big career change, but also advice she’d give to people just starting out, such as building your audience before your product.
