In this episode of The Biz Dojo, we sit down with Brock Skretting from Keep Alberta Rolling.
Brock shares the story of starting a not-for-profit business that advocates for the film industry in Alberta. As we dive into more about the film industry, we'll also chat about what it takes to get involved in the film industry -- from involving your business to pivoting your skills/career into an industry that is booming in AB.
From the recent success of The Last of Us, the filming of Ghostbusters and other greats all the way back to the 1920's -- we deep dive an entire industry and what it takes to be an entrepreneur helping to drive it's success.
You can also check out Brock's favourite song, added to "The Guestlist" - a collection of our guests' favourite songs -- right here:

This week in The Biz Dojo, we're joined by Haley Daniels - motivational speaker, sports advocate, inspirational leader, and... oh, right - she also happens to be an Olympian.

So, sit down with a pen and paper, grab your Biz Dojo Coffee (Masters Medium - OR - Dojo Dark) , and think about what you'd tell your 10-year-old self.

This week, we connect with Olympian and founder of the Believe Initiative -- Sarah Wells
We cover a lot of ground in this conversation, talking about everything from creativity in sport to her time on The Amazing Race, to the founding of the Believe Initiative and what it means to speak to youth (and to corporate audiences too!). Inspiration can come from a lot of places, and sometimes it takes a loss or hitting rock bottom to find it, other times it's driven by the person nipping at your heels...
So, how do you get creative so you can better jump over your own hurdles? Subscribe and tune in to find out.
