Nicole Bourque-Bouchier - From Trapper to Trailblazer
from Chatter that Matters Hosted by Tony Chapman
Nicole Bourque-Bouchier's journey from humble beginnings to RBC's 2022 Women of Influence - CEO Excellence Award Winner. Hailing from a lineage of trappers, Nicole Bourque-Bouchier claims her indigenous and entrepreneurial roots to be a role model to her family and community while building Bouchier into one of the largest indigenous-owned companies with revenues of $150 million, 1000 employees and 400 heavy equipment vehicles. Nicole intimately shares her family's transformative journey from the trapline to Fort McMurray—her parent's quest for a better, more stable life. She delves into the tragic loss of her younger sister to suicide, an event that indelibly shaped Nicole's trajectory, altering her thoughts, career path, and personal growth. Nicole offers so much in this podcast, including her dad's lesson that everyone matters, how to go after your dreams, and why she stopped trying to fit in a man's world and instead focused on the vision, values and principles that matter most to her.
