In this episode, I sit down with someone who’s inspired me since day one my sister. She’s a mother, grandmother, and founder of her own family law firm. But her story didn’t start at the top she began her law degree as a mature-age student while raising two toddlers.
Now in her 50s, with her eldest daughter working alongside her as office manager, she continues to advocate fiercely for women navigating life’s most complex transitions. We talk about ambition, motherhood, starting over, and what it takes to lead with purpose across every season of life.
In this episode of Living Out Loud with Ally, I sit down with Sandra—founder of Business Mums Hub, a thriving network that supports women across all areas of business.
