As Dragon’s Den kicks off its 20th season, how exciting to launch our second season with Arlene Dickinson—arguably the most iconic dragon of all. You know Arlene as a titan of business and venture capital, but as she reveals with remarkable warmth and candour as she talks with Gill, her secret weapon is her honesty about doubts, vulnerabilities and uncertainty. It’s what makes her YouTube show Arlene is Alone so popular. In this conversation she talks about the freedom she finds in being on her own, and about her passion for helping Canada through this critical moment of historic uncertainty. Arlene shares deeply personal stories of challenge, lays bare the raw courage it has taken her to keep going through hardship, and reminds us how much strength comes from being willing to accept what we might not know.
