I’m Brenda Rigney, a business coach for midlife women entrepreneurs and the founder of two Skool communities designed to help you build real momentum. - AI-Driven Business Community - Skool Scale Camp I was born and raised in Kitsilano, graduated from Magee Secondary School, worked at Expo 86, built and sold homes in Dunbar, and East Vancouver, and later raised my two daughters here while building my corporate career. After 27 years scaling major brands, I chose a different path—one rooted in freedom, alignment, and building something that actually feels like mine. Today, I run my communities and coaching business right here in Vancouver, where I also live with my golden retriever, Sadie. I love taking in the beauty of our glorious city, so I can see us having our initial meet-ups outside, at English Bay, or walking the Seawall, perhaps Queen Elizabeth Park.
