Chip Wilson: Risk & Reinvention

If you hike, run, snowboard, do yoga or any other fitness routine, you have probably done it in high-quality attire made by fashion business legend Chip Wilson. The outspoken Canadian entrepreneur rose to fame through the Lululemon clothing brand he started, but at 71, he is still launching new businesses.Wilson joins Christy Clark for a wide-ranging chat: his youth bouncing between the U.S. and Canada, his first big payday as a labourer on an Alaskan pipeline, the competitive streak that drove him to be an entrepreneur, and the women he calls “supergirls” who found enriching careers at Lululemon, why he chose to stay in Canada to run his businesses, his tolerance for risk, being willing to fail and get back up, and his struggle with a form of muscular dystrophy.Wilson is noted for his blunt talk and dropping truth bombs, and he does not disappoint. You will want to hear how he feels about Canada’s political drift toward Europe and what he calls “suicidal empathy” holding our society back.The Christy Clark Showthechristyclarkshow.comInstagraminstagram.com/christyclarkbcLinkedin https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-christy-clark-show/Inquiries info@thechristyclarkshow.com
