Chloe Smith: Resilience, Self-Awareness, and the Path to Entrepreneurship

The Calgary Sessions with Jeff Humphreys

How much do our backgrounds influence the paths we choose in life?

In this episode, I sit down with Chloe Smith, an entrepreneur with a unique story rooted in a close-knit French-Canadian family. Growing up bilingual in Calgary, Chloe shares how her upbringing in a large, supportive family shaped her view of the world and her place in it. We explore her journey from early entrepreneurial ventures—like a house cleaning business—to founding her own company.

Chloe opens up about the challenges she faced, including struggles with mental health, and how these experiences led her to develop a deep sense of resilience. We also dive into her love for climbing and how it became a meditative practice that helped her find balance.

Throughout our conversation, Chloe reflects on the importance of understanding your own strengths and the role that family and culture play in shaping who you are. Whether it's the influence of her bilingual upbringing or the lessons learned from her entrepreneurial failures, Chloe’s story is a reminder of the power of self-awareness and persistence.
