Description
Sara LeHoullier has always been a busy-bee. With a BA in English Literature and a Master's in Sustainable Development, she jumped from teaching English as a Peace Corps Volunteer in Madagascar to managing donor-funded projects with a large NGO, then dove into consulting with Microsoft before striking out on her own. She currently designs Squarespace websites and writes copy for passionate entrepreneurs and small businesses — she’s also the co-founder of Shop the Change, a web app designed to help consumers make value-based shopping decisions and support the brands working to make the world a better place. Her most challenging (and rewarding) position yet is being a stepmom. She’s deeply interested in social change, sustainable business, and creating space for conversations that improve the way we work and live on this planet. This was such a fun interview. You will hear Sara’s magnetic energy from the very beginning of the interview. I loved hearing Sara’s story and I really appreciate how she opened up about some of the less talked about aspects of stepmotherhood. I know you’ll learn some valuable lessons from Sara’s journey. Listen in to hear Sara share: Her unexpected journey into motherhood The challenges of building an identity as a stepmom How she worked through the isolation of being a new mother figure and stepmom How her entrepreneurial journey paralleled her motherhood journey Where she is now – attracting all the right people at the right time Links Mentioned: Busybee: thebusybee.me Busybee on Facebook Shop the Change: shopthechange.com Shop the Change on Facebook Hotline: The Boys Town Hotline Book: The Soul of an Octopus Thank you to our sponsors: Songfinch: Create a personalized song for a special person or occasion using the Songfinch platform of over 300 professional musicians.
