In this episode, we sit down with Sandy Spady, an entrepreneur whose entire life has been rooted in one powerful throughline: showcasing other people. Long before she founded Women With Voices, Sandy was the woman saying yes. From retail to serving on multiple boards, from chamber of commerce leadership to every community initiative that crossed her path, Sandy has always been the catalyst who brings people forward and puts them in the spotlight.

Sandy shares how entrepreneurship has shaped her life—and how it’s not always the glamorous, effortless journey people imagine. She talks honestly about the pace, the pressure, and the reality of saying yes to everything. That instinct to help, support, and elevate has always been her strength, but this year she openly shares a new commitment: going slow so she can go fast. Sandy is intentionally creating boundaries in 2026 because she knows her capacity, her creativity, and her brand will grow only when she protects the space to dream, build, and recover.

One of the most powerful parts of Sandy’s story is her reinvention. After a divorce at age fifty, she moved to Omaha—a city she had never lived in—and started her life over. Within five short years, she built an incredible network, a community of powerhouse women, and a brand centered on visibility, voice, and empowerment. Women With Voices was born after COVID, when Sandy realized women needed a place to be seen, heard, and celebrated. What started as a simple idea to showcase other women quickly turned into a movement, one that continues to expand and uplift countless voices.

Throughout the conversation, Sandy talks about what it means to reinvent yourself at any age, to keep saying yes even when life resets you, and to own your story with confidence. She believes the next five decades of her life will be magical, and she encourages every woman listening to embrace the same belief—that reinvention is always possible, that your voice matters, and that it’s never too late to start something extraordinary.

This episode is a tribute to resilience, community, and the power of women spotlighting women. Sandy reminds us that when we follow the thread of our gifts, trust our inner knowing, and stay willing to grow, we can transform not only our own lives but the lives of everyone we showcase along the way.
