About this episode
Finding individuals that are challenging the status quo and creating a purposeful life impact through their work is so inspiring to me. Today I welcome millennial trailblazer Samantha J – She’s a social impact entrepreneur & intuitive business strategist – recently featuring in Forbes List Top 40 Under 40 Entrepreneurs for the incredible philanthropic work she does.‌ Her story is fascinating, which she shares with us today, about how she spearheaded her families business at 22 years old and turned it into a 8 figure success, and how she is igniting a global movement to deliver measurable social impact. Samantha is dedicated to tackling global challenges such as poverty, climate change, and the eradication of sex trafficking. Her impact reverberates through her transformative business school, Humanitarian B-School, and her luxury business agency, Illuminator. She has walked a path that hasn’t always been an easy one – experiencing deep trauma and sexual abuse in an environment that was supporsed to be her safe space. Her healing journey has led her to uncover how she can create a pathway for others to do the same AND be successful in business. This is for you if: You want to break through limiting beliefs and trauma Want to think bigger and stop playing small Want to create a positive impact in the world through business OR Generally want to be inspired by a young change making powerhouse. I’m excited to see Sam’s path ahead – This chat was super honest and I know you will all get something to take away. I’d actually love to hear what that is – leave your comments on Apple or Spotify.
