After being laid off from the oil and gas industry, Bobbie Racette found herself at a crossroads, until she took a leap into entrepreneurship, founding Virtual Gurus, a talent platform that's redefining the future of remote work.

But her success didn't come easy.

In this episode, Bobbie opens up about the 170 investor rejections she endured before becoming the first Indigenous woman in Canada to secure Series A funding, why she once walked out of a pitch competition moments before taking the stage, and the pivotal realization that led her to fire herself as CEO before stepping back into the role.

She also shares how burnout forced her to rethink leadership and the mindset that kept her going when the odds were stacked against her.
