Episode 99: Cassy Weber, CEO, MindFuel

July 13, 2021

Cassy Weber and MindFuel, the organization she runs as CEO, are very busy - from studying when girls are losing interest in STEM in their schooling journey, to figuring out how to deliver quality programming to communities with limited technology, to consulting on curriculum development initiatives and more. Cassy tells us all about these projects in this episode, and lets us in on some of her personal and professional life as a busy CEO of a nonprofit organization that is truly making a positive impact.

(Please excuse any audio hiccups in this remotely recorded interview.)

We acknowledge that Best of the WWEST is hosted and produced on the unceded territories of the  (Musqueam),  (Squamish), and  (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. Best of the WWEST is also produced on Treaty 6 territory. Best of the WWEST has featured many guests and has been hosted and produced by people of different lands, countries, and cultures, but we also acknowledge that we are settlers on this land. Part of the aim of this podcast is to create a space to teach and learn, but we also realize the struggle for Indigenous rights is deeply connected to all human rights work, and is especially important in equity, diversity, and inclusion work. We are grateful for the privilege to be working as visitors on these unceded and ancestral territories of all the Metis, Inuit, First Nations, and Indigenous people that call this land home. We acknowledge and reflect on the harms and mistakes of the past and to consider how we are and can each, in our own way, try to move forward in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
