Deliciously Messy with Leila Pekaric

In this episode, I sit down with Lejla Pekaric, a business mentor on Firecircle’s Ignite team. Though Lejla began her career in accounting, her work has evolved into executive coaching, organizational systems development, and much more. She shares how that transition unfolded—and why she’s drawn to tackling big, complex challenges. Despite a busy professional life, Lejla has made space for public speaking, creative writing, and even launching a small farm that promotes healthy eating and helps people reconnect with where their food comes from. Lejla also highlights the importance of building a supportive team of professionals around your business long before you think you’ll need them. Connect with Lejla and explore her work at www.lejla.ca and www.kolibriconsulting.ca If you have tourism business dreams but feel overwhelmed by the journey, Firecircle is here to help with easy-to-use, step-by-step programs and one-to-one mentorship from our incredible team of mentors.
