To celebrate Toronto FIFA Kickoff this weekend, we joined Glory Sports in Toronto for a live recording of DeRo & the Diehard featuring Dwayne De Rosario, Ben Botelho, Craig Forrest, and Armando Sá.

The conversation explored soccer culture in Canada, what FIFA means for Toronto’s soccer communities and fans, the future of sport in Canada, and the outlook for Canada on the road to the World Cup.

It was a great night of conversation, connection, and celebrating the momentum behind Canadian soccer.

Big thanks to Lance Chung and the Glory Sports team for a fantastic evening!

April gave us a little bit of everything.

Milestones. Podcast wins. Hall of Fame news. And the kind of client feedback that reminds us why the right voice in the room can change the entire day.

A few moments we’re still thinking about:

⚡️Kaleb Dahlgren and Terry Ryan taking part in the largest ice hockey charity event in North America.
⚡️Jennifer Botterill, José Bautista, and Bret Hart joining a sports charity dinner event in Halifax.
⚡️Dan Chuparkoff and Eric Termuende sharing practical leadership and future-of-work insights with grocery and retail leaders.
⚡️Madison Tevlin’s 21 Questions winning the People’s Voice Webby Award for Podcasts in Belonging & Inclusion.
⚡️Andi Petrillo being announced as an Etobicoke Sports Hall of Fame inductee this fall.

And a few words from audiences that stayed with us:
“I cried four times and laughed, like, 50 times.”
“Not one person on their phone. Full standing ovation.”
“You’re one of us. You get it.”

That’s our month in review: a whole lot of impact, connection, and moments worth remembering.

Last week, our team gathered in breathtaking Banff, AB, for our annual retreat to strategize, collaborate, and celebrate a decade of impact. This year’s gathering was particularly momentous as we officially marked Talent Bureau’s 10th anniversary!

Between working sessions, we took in the best of the Rockies. From the legendary fondue at The Grizzly House and elegant high tea at the Fairmont Banff Springs to the sweeping 360-degree views atop the Banff Gondola (and an obligatory stop at the Banff Chili’s sign–because why not), it was a week to remember.

As a remote-first company, these moments together are invaluable. They ground us in our mission and fuel our passion for the work we do. Of course, none of this would be possible without our incredible speakers and clients—you are the heartbeat of Talent Bureau and our constant source of inspiration.

Thank you for an unforgettable first 10 years. Here’s to many more decades of connecting voices and creating impact together! 🥂✨

From trailblazing executives to emerging voices, we’re grateful to partner with women who are breaking boundaries and building more diverse, gender-inclusive spaces on and off the stage.

International Women’s Day is a powerful reminder to:
- Celebrate women’s achievements
- Call out bias and discrimination
- Take real action toward gender parity

How are you recognizing and supporting women in your organization?
