83: Sustainability Series: Building Future Fit Supply Chains with Supply Chain Queen Sheri Hinish

In this episode, we sit down with global sustainability leader Sheri Hinish, the "Supply Chain Queen," to discuss her journey from a first-generation college student to advising Fortune 500 brands and governments. Grounded in her perspective as a working mother, Sheri breaks down why supply chains are the operating system of civilization—shaping everything from who has food and clean water to how women break through systemic corporate barriers.

Turning to strategy, we explore how to build a truly regenerative supply chain, reframing the circular economy as a massive revenue opportunity rather than just a sustainability checklist. Sheri tackles the complexities of scope three emissions, the tsunami of new regulations, and the paradoxical role of AI as both a decarbonization tool and an energy-guzzling challenge. She leaves listeners with a simple, radical challenge: call your top suppliers this week to build genuine partnerships that can transform daily logistics into world-changing impact.
