    Decision Fatigue Is Ruining Your Focus (It Starts With Your Closet) with Lacey Cadieux-McLean

    You wake up, open your wardrobe, and before your day has even started—you’ve already made 10 decisions. Not about your work, not about your priorities… but about what you’re wearing. And most of it is happening in a quiet internal dialogue you don’t even realise is draining you. Today we’re joined by Lacey Cadieux-McLean, founder and CEO of Rhubaia Ventures, a Calgary-based fashion-tech company that’s redefining how women dress, organize, and experience their wardrobes. Lacey combines eco-conscious, non-toxic professional apparel with an AI-powered virtual closet app designed to reduce textile waste, simplify wardrobe management, and foster confidence in daily dressing. Raised on a ranch in Alberta, Lacey brings a deep connection to nature, a career in IT project management, and a passion for sustainable innovation. Frustrated by the lack of healthy, functional, and stylish professional clothing, she created Rhubaia to bridge the gap between safer textiles, intelligent technology, and thoughtful design.
