<p>In this episode, we sit down with Suki Toguchi, Chief of Staff at Gilead Sciences, whose journey is defined by resilience, discipline, and a relentless commitment to growth. Born in China during the one-child policy, Suki immigrated to New York at just six years old with her family, arriving with only $100 and the determination to build something more.</p><p>Growing up as a first-generation immigrant, she learned early how to navigate pressure, adapt quickly, and compete at the highest level. From academics to competitive sports, Suki developed the mindset and work ethic that would later carry her into leadership roles in one of the most demanding industries—biopharma.</p><p>Now operating at the executive level, she reflects on the environments, mentors, and pivotal moments that shaped her path. She shares how community, discipline, and grit became her foundation, and how those same principles continue to guide how she leads, makes decisions, and creates impact.</p><p>This conversation is a grounded look at what it actually takes to rise—without shortcuts.

<p>In this episode, we sit down with <strong>Marie-Michèle Caron</strong>, Chief Revenue Officer at Tempo, whose career has been shaped by one powerful piece of advice: “Work yourself out of a job.” Born and raised in Quebec, Canada, Marie took a leap of faith when her company relocated her to San Francisco to build a strategic partnership with Salesforce, an opportunity that helped propel Coveo from $2M to $100M in ARR and ultimately through a successful IPO.</p><p>Arriving in the United States as an immigrant executive, Marie had to build credibility, relationships, and influence from the ground up. She went on to architect a channel ecosystem that drove 75% of new revenue, proving that scalable systems, not individual heroics, are what create lasting growth. Her leadership journey later led her to Thryv, where she focused on empowering small businesses, and now to her role as CRO at Tempo, where she continues to redefine modern revenue leadership.</p><p>Grounded, strategic, and deeply self-aware, Marie reflects on the realities of scaling companies, navigating cross-border ambition, and leading with empathy in high-performance environments. She speaks candidly about balancing executive leadership with motherhood, the evolving definition of success, and why support systems matter more than titles.</p><p>This conversation is a thoughtful exploration of ownership, resilience, and building something bigger than yourself while staying anchored in your values. A masterclass in ambition with heart, and a reminder that the real rule to thrive is creating systems that outlast you.</p>
