Raylene Whitford has not followed a typical career path. The Edmonton-born Métis woman has trudged around the jungles of Ecuador, the concrete and glass of a five-star hotel in the Middle East, and the corridors of the London Stock Exchange. Oh yeah: she tried roughnecking for a while, too.
Now, Raylene is pursuing her doctorate back in Canada, while using her social enterprise Canative Energy to empower Indigenous communities impacted by extractive industries.
In this episode, Raylene credits cohost Jessica Vandenberghe and her role modeling with showing her what success can look like for an Indigenous woman.
She also says—among other things—that Canadians can learn a lot about living their lives in a good way by spending some non-disruptive quality time in the great outdoors.
