Show notes
Lindsay White carries Alberta homesteader DNA, generations of powerful, independent women who earned the vote through partnership work, not permission. That matriarchy shaped everything about her 20+ year HR career, though she insists it's never been about HR. It's about the messy inflection point where brilliant female founders can no longer touch everything in their business yet still try, burning out as Chief Everything Officers because nobody taught them the operator-to-CEO transition. Her LPC Method, Lead, People, Culture, targets the strategic gap most women face: hiring too early, hiring wrong, hiring before understanding their zone of genius. Lindsay's devastating insight? Before bringing on that first person, founders must answer: What am I really good at? What do I love? What would I die happy never doing again? Then hire for the gaps, not the tasks. Her mission is becoming the go-to strategic partner for women scaling businesses, teaching them that leadership isn't about being the hero who saves everyone, but building teams that don't need saving. No fluff. No judgment. Just clear strategies and real talk from someone who knows the messy middle intimately. 02:01 - Alberta Homesteader Matriarchy Legacy 02:36 - Calgary Roots and Powerful Women 03:19 - Never Really About HR 03:36 - The Messy Inflection Point 04:14 - Operator to CEO Transition 04:41 - Chief Everything Officer Syndrome 08:30 - The LPC Method Explained 12:45 - Hiring Mistakes Female Founders Make 18:20 - Stop Being the Hero 22:15 - Code-Switching Cost in Leadership 32:05 - Zone of Genius Before First Hire 33:49 - Go-To Strategic Partner Mission If you enjoy our podcasts plese like, share and subscribe we genuinely appreciate your support.
