Come and join the conversation with the INCREDIBLE Samantha Tradelius from The Sparkle Foundation ✨"Living A Life Of Purpose"Well, where do I start with this episode!!!!First of all let's celebrate the fact that it's both of our first EVER across the pond missions! Samantha's first British podcast and my first American guest!! We packed in SO much! Samantha tells me about her history in Risk Management in the Insurance Industry for the past 25 years, finding herself gravitating towards women organically in her line of work from the beginning. She actually started building her business at only 18 years of age!! We go through the journey of Santa letters, fulfilling children's Christmas wishes and later expanding into helping single parent families. Her passion quickly grew into her purpose and fast forward to now she has helped over 10,000 families in the last 7 years alone, raised over a MILLION dollars and pumped every penny back into the community. We chat about The Sparkle Foundation at its roots, Sparkle Biz, Holiday Gift Drives and Enrichment Scholarships, it is just unbelievable how amazing this lady is! Samantha tells me of the challenges she faced at the onset of the pandemic, both professionally and personally, plans that were thwarted and put on hold, the struggles of parenting, running a non profit and still with that burning desire to help and the ingenious ways that she managed to do so. Absolutely passionate about celebrating the women in her life, Samantha wrote a book championing them, telling their story and thanking them in the most incredible way. She is honestly one of those people that live and breathe what she does, she lives and breathes supporting women, making her community a better place, giving back and encouraging others to do the same with her trailblazing commitment. We talk about the plans for the future, expanding her mission across the globe and continuing to help people far and wide. Literally there is NOTHING this lady can't do! Shes a business owner, a Mum, a wife, an author, a Non Profit founder, a philanthropist, a podcast host, THIS WOMAN IS AMAZING!!What a super inspiring conversation, with a super inspiring lady, I cannot wait to see her continue to make an amazing impact on the world 🩷Thankyou Samantha it was an absolute pleasure!YES SHE CAN!!!!!
