A recent survey says that 75% of business owners are optimistic about the future of their business. But if I’m being honest . . . I’m not sure if I buy it.

In this episode, I sit down with Andreea Bourgeois, Director of Economics with CFIB, to discuss the future of business and how to actually measure optimism. We talk about the COVID benchmark, going with your gut, and getting creative about running your business.

Whether you see the glass as half full or half empty, I can’t wait to hear what you think about this episode.

Is optimism in your DNA?

Going green is all the rage . . . but is it everything it’s cracked up to be?

It’s a question I wanted to ask Jess Douglas, CEO and Director of Green Impact Partners Inc., in the latest episode of The Karmali Exchange.

His answer? “If you do the right thing profitably, you can do it for a long time.”

Our conversation covers a lot of ground including the importance of education, how to challenge the status quo, and the government’s agenda when it comes to being green. Plus I get Jesse’s take on the carbon tax.

So if you’re a business owner who wants to be environmentally friendly but also be successful, you don’t want to miss this episode!
