What Happens When You Finally Trust Your Own Voice with Advocate for the Blind, Karoline Bourdeau
Monday, 3 August, 2026
What happens when you stop performing the life other people planned for you and start trusting your own voice? For most women, that shift is the real leadership work. It is quiet, it is uncomfortable, and it changes everything.In this episode of the ChangeMaker Leader Podcast, I sit down with Karoline Bourdeau, founder of KRB Consulting and one of the most compelling voices in accessibility and inclusion in Canada. Karoline arrived in this country at age 12 as a blind immigrant with no formal education. She went on to earn two Arts degrees and a Law degree from Queen's University, build a career in accessibility and inclusion with organizations such as Fable Labs and Access Labs, and launch her own consulting company, designing training and educational programs that actually work for everyone.Karoline knows what it means to be handed a script for your life and to hand it back. In our conversation, we talk about how she learned to trust her own judgment when the world kept underestimating her, why resilience is built and not born, and how to tell the difference between what others want for you and what you actually want for yourself.If you have ever felt the pull between the path expected of you and the one calling you, this conversation is your permission slip.Connect with Karoline Bourdeau on LinkedIn and learn more about KRB Consulting.The ChangeMaker Leader Podcast is hosted by Leigh Mitchell, Founder of Women in Biz Network and creator of the Own Your Imprint leadership framework. We are Canada’s most welcoming community for women who love business and want to make positive change in the world together. We believe every woman deserves a place where she is welcomed before she is judged, encouraged before she is evaluated, and connected before she is expected to succeed on her own. Our job board is where opportunity meets belonging, with every employer vetted for benefits and culture that help women build a future they actually want.
