My guest this week is Jennifer Renaud, CEO and board director at Coolhouse Botanics, where she leads corporate and portfolio strategy, operational expansion, and investor alignment for the Kradle pet wellness brand. With over 30 years of experience—including global marketing leadership at Oracle Marketing Cloud and Masonite—she excels in building enterprise value through growth strategy, brand revitalization, and cross-sector innovation. 

Throughout her career spanning enterprise technology, medical devices, building products, and CPG, Jen has reshaped organizations to outperform expectations, especially during periods of complexity, disruption, or scale-up. Beyond her executive acumen, Jen is a dynamic thought leader—most recently authoring a Medium series, From Brand Builder to Business Leader, on the CMO-to-CEO journey. 

And one last thing—Jen and I go way back to our days at Oracle, specifically Oracle Marketing Cloud. I’m proud to call her my friend, my mentor, and my confidant.
