  • 93 - From Corporate Leadership to AI Governance: Theresa Lynn's Incredible Story of Starting Over at 50
    2026/09/15
    Theresa Lynn spent 17 years climbing the ranks at TELUS, from field manager to GM Alberta South to strategic programs director. Then in 2022, a mysterious illness took her out of the corporate world entirely. Kari and Theresa talk about the messy middle of that transition - the shower floor, the fights with a husband who wanted to help, the guilt of relying on someone else's paycheque - before getting into how that unraveling led Theresa to Oxford, to a new industry, and eventually to founding Clarity at Work, an HR and AI governance practice serving business owners across Western Canada. The conversation then turns practical: what AI governance actually means for a small or mid-sized business, why most AI implementations fail, and how to give a team permission to innovate instead of just handing them a list of rules.Key Topics Discussed:The slow roll to sickness - a summer of cardiac scans, MRIs, and a bone marrow biopsy that led nowhereThe moment Theresa's doctor told her she wasn't letting anyone down but herselfWhy Theresa decided she wasn't going back to her old role, and the three-week Caribbean cruise that became her unofficial exit from TELUSThe hardest part of the transition - accepting financial support from her husband, and the guilt of going from a six-figure career to "honey, I'm broke"Turning 50 and buying a plane ticket to Oxford before telling anyoneThe exercise, inside a 29-person cohort from around the world, that gave Theresa the language for her purpose, and where the name "Clarity at Work" actually came fromWhy 80% of AI implementations fail, and what most organizations get wrong from the startThe bowling alley theory of AI governance - why the goal isn't more rules, it's clear gutters and permission to knock the pins down in betweenShadow AI, the risk hiding in plain sight when employees quietly use tools nobody's signed off onTheresa's framework for treating AI like a new intern instead of an expertWhy business owners starting over in midlife aren't starting from zero, and what changes when you're at the peak of your career instead of the beginning of itWhat "anchored" means for Theresa, and the one non-negotiable she built into her business from day oneTheresa's story is a reminder that the low points don't disqualify you from the next chapter, they're often what make you good at it. She didn't get to Clarity at Work in spite of the shower floor and the summer of unanswered tests. She got there because of what those months taught her about setting expectations, asking for help, and protecting what matters. Whether it's a health crisis, a career pivot, or just the quiet realization that your business needs clearer gutters, the throughline is the same: define your non-negotiables, get honest about what you actually need, and trust that the mess is part of the story, not a detour from it.That's the practice at the centre of Anchored Leadership, staying regulated and clear-headed enough, even mid-crisis, to lead yourself and everyone counting on you.If this episode had you thinking about the "gutters" in your own business, where you actually need rules versus where your team just needs permission, that's exactly the work we do inside the Anchored Leadership Academy.

  • 92 - Lead From Here
    2026/09/01

    Kari's been noticing something in herself lately: the busier she gets, the harder it is to access the easy, flowing creativity she used to count on. In this episode, she gets honest about wondering if she'd simply "lost her groove", and walks through the three things she's found that actually bring it back: space, focus, and foundation.

    This isn't a productivity hack episode. It's a look at why your own brain, your ability to solve problems, spot opportunities, and think clearly is one of the most valuable assets in your business, and why most of us are quietly running it into the ground without noticing.

    Key Topics Discussed:

    • Why creativity dries up when you get busy, and how to tell if you've actually "lost your groove" or just run out of room for it
    • The shower-idea phenomenon, and what it reveals about how the brain generates ideas
    • Why traditional meditation didn't work for Kari, and the movement-based alternative she uses instead
    • The trap of turning one idea into 92 ideas by lunch
    • How AI tools and social media algorithms are built to pull your focus, not sharpen it
    • Why narrow, specific feedback questions (to clients and team) beat open-ended ones
    • The personal foundation: sleep, food, hydration, movement
    • The business foundation: systems, role clarity, and processes kept "just because"
    • A client story on what's possible when the foundation work finally pays off
    • Why the Anchored Leadership Academy exists, and what makes the room work


    Space, focus, and foundation aren't one more thing to add to your list, they're what makes the rest of the list possible. You don't need to overhaul everything this week. Pick the one that's calling to you, give it 10 minutes, and see what shows up.

    Curious whether the Academy is the right next step for you? Book a call with Kari and figure it out together, no pressure, just a conversation about where you're at and what you're building.

    The next cohort of the Anchored Leadership Academy opens this fall.

  • 91 - From Marketing to Vice President: Leading One of Canada's Largest Health Networks with Rochelle Hildebrand
    2026/08/18
    Rochelle Hildebrand didn't come up through the clinical ranks, she came in through marketing and communications and now oversees five divisions as Vice President of EHN Guardians and Outpatient Services, part of a network that has grown from a handful of employees to over a thousand in just over a decade. Kari and Rochelle dig into why clinical excellence and business leadership are two different skill sets, how EHN built a diversified revenue model that keeps expanding access to care, and what it actually takes, as a leader and as a person, to stay grounded while helping run an organization at that scale. Key Topics Discussed: How Rochelle's path to EHN started with her father's treatment centre, and a job she wrote for herself without meaning toWhy her dad believed clinicians often struggle to make the leap into business leadershipThe difference between being an exceptional clinician and being an exceptional leaderGrowing from 4–5 employees to over 1,000 in just over ten yearsThe two-part role of a leader: making today great, and building toward the futureHow EHN diversified its revenue streams from mostly private-pay to mostly third-party fundedThe shifting relationship between employers, mental health, and the workforce of the futureA simple framework for leaders who notice someone on their team is strugglingWho protects the people at the top, and why peer relationships matter so muchRochelle's vision for the future of mental health care in Canada Rochelle's story is a reminder that leadership doesn't have to come from the path you expected, and that the people who build resilient organizations aren't the ones with all the answers, they're the ones willing to keep asking the right questions, of their teams and of themselves.
