On this episode of Municipal Affairs, we sit down with women leaders who are preparing to close a chapter in their political journeys.
After years of service in local government, they’re stepping away from elected office—and with that comes a chance to reflect.
They share candid insights into the realities of municipal life: the late-night council meetings, the tough policy debates, and the moments of connection that made it all worthwhile. They speak openly about the challenges that tested them, the pivotal moments that shaped their careers, and the personal reasons behind their decision to hang up their hats.
But this is also a conversation about what comes next. With warmth and wisdom, our guests offer advice for the next generation of leaders, sharing what they’ve learned about public service, community, and the legacy they hope to leave behind.
Joining us are Trina Jones, Councillor for the Town of Legal, and Lyndsay Montina, Mayor of Coalhurst.
Together, their stories remind us that behind every public role is a personal journey—and that leadership is as much about knowing when to step forward as it is about knowing when to step back.
