In this episode of Risk Is Our Business, Captain Michael Rasmussen welcomes aboard Laura Fox, Risk Director at AstroPay, for a high-warp journey through the risk galaxy. Laura reflects on her experience as a woman navigating a still male-dominated corner of the business universe, and why diverse leadership isn’t just a nice-to-have—it reshapes how teams approach uncertainty, challenge groupthink, and make smarter decisions.

She also tackles the great divide between best practice and boots-on-the-ground reality. From under-resourced teams to overengineered frameworks, Laura shares where theory often falls short—and how to bridge that gap without losing sight of what actually works.

From building risk frameworks from scratch to spotting the strategic opportunities others miss, Laura shows us what it takes to bring risk out of the engine room and into the command deck—where it belongs.

Tune in as they boldly go beyond the compliance checkbox and into the vibrant unknown of proactive, people-first risk leadership.
