Dive into a story that starts in poverty in the Philippines and stretches all the way to 89 hectares of protected ocean floor in Canada. In this episode, you’ll hear how a commercial diver’s concern for ocean damage evolved into a pioneering, sustainable aquaculture enterprise. Our guest shares how she and her husband built a 30-year “ocean ranching” journey around geoduck and sea cucumber, guided by a bold North Star: to create the most environmentally beneficial food-production operation on land or at sea. We explore what real influence looks like—walking your talk, educating stakeholders, and learning from failure when a nine-year sea cucumber project collapsed. You’ll also discover how she blends leadership, governance, and practical AI to turn organizational knowledge into values-driven, low-risk innovation. Stick around to learn how “know thyself, serve others, leave a legacy” became the foundation of her 300-year vision for people, planet, and profit.
