Evolving Leadership: Lessons from a Life of Advocacy and Change

Virtual Session 2 – November 25, 2025 from 6:30-7:30 pm

Presented by The Honorable Marilou McPhedran, CM, Senator for Manitoba

Leadership is never static – it shifts with time, experience, and the courage to embrace change. Senator Marilou McPhedran has spent her life challenging systems, breaking barriers, and advocating for women’s rights at home and around the world. In this session, she reflects on her journey into leadership, from grassroots activism to Canada’s Senate, and how her approach has evolved through successes, setbacks, and seasons of transition. With candor and wisdom, Senator McPhedran explores what it means to lead with confidence in midlife, to set boundaries while creating space for others, and to draw strength from both personal and collective resilience.
