Episode Description

Dr. Delphine Le Serre: Teaching Children Who They Already Are

Katherine Dudtschak sits down with Dr. Delphine Le Serre, founder of EdHu2050, a global think tank reimagining education in the age of AI. Delphine is a physicist, behavioural scientist, former university professor, and entrepreneur ranked by Forbes among the Top 20 Women Transforming EdTech in Europe. She is also the creator of the MOON pedagogy framework, now being implemented in schools across North America and beyond.

She left France at 40, enrolled her four-year-old son in a Montreal school, and then did something she had never done in her adult life: she stopped. She walked without a destination, sat in a church not for religion but for quiet, and slowly learned to listen to her own heart. What emerged from 18 months of stillness was a framework she had first needed to live herself.

The MOON pedagogy organises human development across four relationships: with self, with others, with nature, and with intelligent machines. In this conversation, Delphine and Katherine explore the science of it, the soul of it, and what it means to build an education system that begins by asking a child: do you know who you are?

Key Moments

• Her first university lecture: "I could do that for free" — and she knew immediately
• Sitting in a Montreal church, listening to her own heartbeat for the first time in 40 years
• Children are born with broader intelligence than adults; conventional education narrows it
• The MOON framework: me with myself, others, nature, and intelligent machines
• Three acts of courage before leaving France, each requiring her to disappoint someone she loved

Quotes to Remember

"I could do that for free. That is what I said when I taught my first lecture. That is how I knew."

"We can live an entire life without knowing our talents. And most of the time it's sad. And we know it."

Reflection for Listeners

Delphine brought a question most of us stopped being asked very young: who are you, really, and do you love what you find? She had to ask it of herself first, alone in a Montreal church with no phone and no plan. The work we most need to do for others always begins with the same question turned inward.

Amy Elizabeth Fox: Bringing Love Into the Rooms Where Business Gets Done

Katherine Dudtschak sits down with Amy Elizabeth Fox, co-founder and CEO of Mobius Executive Leadership, a global transformational leadership firm she has led for 20 years. Amy has spent her career at the precise intersection of corporate rigour and deep human healing: working with Fortune 500 companies while drawing on psychology, somatics, trauma-informed practice, and spiritual wisdom to help senior leaders become more whole. She is also the co-author of the 2026 book Leading in Chaos, written with Nicholas Janni.

Before any of that, Amy survived non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in her twenties, spent two years in silence near a lake after leaving the Cathedral Church of St. John the Divine, and had her heart cracked open by a kirtan circle she almost walked out of. This conversation moves through all of it: the formation, the collapse, the rebuilding, and 20 years of bringing love into organisations that weren't sure they wanted it.

Amy also shares what she has observed across thousands of senior executive screenings: collective trauma is not the exception in leadership. It is almost universal. And the most important work any organisation can do begins not with strategy, but with the people carrying the weight of the past into every room they lead.

Key Moments

• Amy's non-Hodgkin's lymphoma diagnosis at 22: the illness she calls the greatest gift of her life
• The kirtan circle where something cracked open in her that she has been following ever since
• Her decade at the Cathedral working alongside Ram Dass, Carl Sagan, and Vice President Gore
• Two years near a lake, carrying her own water, before she knew what she was called to build
• Her finding across thousands of executive screenings: trauma in leadership is nearly universal
• Amy stepping down from Mobius to follow the restorative renaissance: local, intimate, person-by-person work

Quotes to Remember

"Some part of my heart just broke open. It was the quality of devotion and the quality of unconditional love. And that frequency, I've been following ever since."

"I have hardly ever met anyone from anywhere in the world where there isn't some kind of trauma. This is a universal pandemic."

Reflection for Listeners

What stayed with me is Amy's certainty that the unhealed past does not stay in the past: it walks into every boardroom, every difficult conversation, every culture we build. Her invitation is not to fix this before we lead. It is to acknowledge it, bring curiosity to it, and let that honesty become the beginning of something real.

Welcome to The Sincerely Show: Katherine Dudtschak on Why She Built This

Before Katherine Dudtschak interviews anyone else on The Sincerely Show, she sits in the chair herself. This first episode is the welcome: the story behind the woman, the book, the platform, and the reason any of this exists.

Katherine Dudtschak is the founder of Sincerely Inc. and the host of The Sincerely Show, a global storytelling, learning, and research platform exploring what it means to live and lead as whole human beings in a complex and fractured world. Through conversations, essays, books, and gatherings, Sincerely explores how our inner lives shape the way we connect, the way we lead, and the future we create together.

Raised on a humble farm in rural Canada by parents shaped by the Second World War, Katherine grew up as a playful, curious, neurodivergent child who experienced the world differently from many around her. What once made her feel apart became one of her greatest strengths: an ability to recognize patterns, sense systems, and understand the deeper relationship between people, institutions, and society itself.

She spent four decades in banking, serving in some of the most senior leadership roles in global banking, including CEO of RBC Caribbean across 19 countries, Executive Vice President at RBC (one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions) and later President and CEO of HomeEquity Bank, an institution devoted to helping older Canadians live with greater dignity, independence, and empowerment as they age.

In 2019, while leading more than 25,000 employees at RBC, Katherine publicly affirmed her gender identity to more than 80,000 colleagues after decades of living with the distance between how successful her life looked and how true it felt.

But this conversation is not simply about identity. It is about the human journey underneath it: the moments that break us open, the periods of heaviness and uncertainty, the longing to belong, the search for meaning, and the gradual return to a more honest and wholehearted life.

At its heart, The Sincerely Show is a series of conversations with remarkable human beings who have walked through challenge, loss, collapse, or awakening and emerged with a deeper sense of wholeness, purpose, and contribution. Through their stories, the show explores what becomes possible when we stop performing our lives and begin living them more truthfully.

These conversations are ultimately about helping people feel less alone. Perhaps, along the way, they find greater hope, meaning, inspiration, and understanding for their own journey.

In this deeply personal opening conversation, Katherine reflects on childhood, leadership, spirituality, meaning, and the experiences that ultimately gave rise to Sincerely and The Sincerely Show: spaces created for honest conversation, where telling the truth about your life is not a detour from the point. It is the point.

If you are navigating change, questioning the life you have built, searching for deeper meaning, or simply longing for a more sincere way of being in the world, this is where the journey begins.

Sophie Grégoire: Your Heart Cannot Break. It Can Only Break Open.

Episode Description

Katherine Dudtschak sits down with Sophie Grégoire, mental health advocate, bestselling author, speaker, and yoga teacher whose book Closer Together became an instant number one bestseller on the Toronto Star and Globe and Mail lists. For over two decades Sophie has been a passionate advocate for youth self-esteem, gender equality, and emotional literacy, and she brings that same quality of honest, open inquiry into this conversation.

Sophie grew up in the Laurentians, raised by a father who told her to jump off cliffs and a mother who noticed every detail. She built a public life of enormous scope, and quietly, alongside it, did the inner work: learning to stop performing, to sit with what is difficult, to reclaim the parts of herself she had suppressed to fit spaces that seemed to require her to be less. Her closing gift to Katherine in this conversation is also its most complete teaching: your heart cannot break. It can only break open.

This conversation covers Sophie's childhood and the qualities she suppressed for years, what Gabor Maté said to her on a stage in Vancouver that made her weep immediately, the science behind why hypersensitivity is so often mistaken for aggression, and why the most radical act of leadership available to us right now is the willingness to know and love ourselves honestly.

Key Moments

• Sophie's childhood in the Laurentians: the father who told her to jump, the mother who noticed everything, and the qualities she learned to suppress as she stepped into public life

• The photo her uncle sent on the morning of this recording: three-year-old Sophie from the cabin in the woods, and why it made her weep

• Gabor Maté on stage at her Vancouver book launch, abandoning his planned question to say: "This is not a book. This is your love letter to the world."

• The genetic research Sophie returns to throughout: the gene associated with aggression is not aggression. It is hypersensitivity.

• Why she believes the most urgent political and personal work are the same: turning inward, making peace with what is unhealed, before we can build anything that holds

• Her closing line, offered as both truth and gift: "Your heart cannot break. It can only break open."

Quotes to Remember

"We can't die from pain. We can die from not knowing what it's telling us."

"Your heart cannot break. It can only break open."

Reflection for Listeners

Sophie does not separate the inner journey from the outer world. She has spent two decades at the intersection of mental health, leadership, and public life, and what she knows with certainty is that the fracture we see outside of us begins with what is unhealed inside. What stayed with me after this conversation is her refusal to accept pain as something to manage. She holds it as a teacher, a messenger, a door. The invitation she leaves is not to fix what is broken. It is to stay open long enough for the breaking to become something else.
