About this listen

Building a big career while navigating motherhood is already a lot to organize, but once you throw travel into the mix, it can feel nearly impossible.


Join us as we talk with Sandy Robinson about her path from sales into sales operations leadership, the mentors who helped shape that transition, and the decisions she made about career and motherhood. From being the only woman in early sales roles to stepping into RevOps leadership after having her son, Sandy shares how her career evolved and what it took to keep moving forward while raising a family.


We also get into the day-to-day logistics of working parent life, from coordinating travel and family schedules to raising a gifted child who started college at 13. Sandy shares how she balances support and independence, stays present as a parent, and makes time for herself through coaching, fitness, and time away with friends.
