Sara Blakely is the founder of Spanx and Sneex. She is an inventor, a category creator and an industry disruptor who asks for signs from the Universe and gets them. She is an intuitive brand expert who can embody the heart and mind of the consumer through putting herself in their shoes… literally. She spends an unusual amount of time daydreaming in her car, sometimes just parked in the driveway. She’s a seeker of ideas who has spent her life building the courage and mindset to pursue them. She may be a legendary entrepreneur, but she doesn’t take herself too seriously and she believes it’s her calling to support and elevate women.  

She was named one of TIME Magazine’s 100 Most Influential People in the world and was featured on the cover of Forbes Magazine as the youngest self-made female billionaire. She’s also a Guinness World Record holder for climbing the side of a hot air balloon and having tea on top. Yup. And she’s afraid of heights.  

When she’s not disrupting industries, setting world records, or making pancakes in crazy shapes for her four small kids… she dreams of a world where the feminine and masculine energy is more balanced. She has donated millions of dollars to support and elevate women and girls around the world through her foundation and in 2012, she signed The Giving Pledge, committing half her life’s wealth to philanthropy.
