Beyond the Anchor Desk: Linda Olsen on Purpose & Reinvention | CREATE - The Podcast
Wednesday, March 4th, 2026•1:03
Linda Olsen is a born-and-raised Calgarian and award-winning storyteller who spent nearly three decades as one of the most trusted voices at Global News Calgary. Over a 36-year career in journalism, she helped shape how the city understood its defining moments – from breaking news to powerful human stories that connected communities.
In 2024, she stepped away from the anchor desk and into a new chapter- embracing freelance storytelling, speaking engagements, and hosting The Spotlight Hour with Linda Olsen on QR Calgary.
Grounded in family and purpose, Linda continues to shine a light on the people and stories that make Calgary extraordinary – proving that reinvention isn’t about starting over, but about stepping forward with intention.
