“It was really hard,” Bernard was saying after a day’s worth of corporate meetings with her charity of choice, Goodwill Alberta. “The first year was tough. I was in such a new position. I didn’t know when I was supposed to talk. What did people really want to hear. The problem is, I came from such a high level of curling that I thought, ‘Well everyone knows that already.’ And I didn’t know what to say.”
