Quotes:
"I started as a virtual assistant and was working under the business name Just Ask For Sam. Kind of fell into it organically through people that I met online and started working, helping business owners and just sort of grew and grew and grew."
"I loved it because I could work the hours that I wanted to and be home with my family. I have four children, ten and under, so being available for them was really important to me."
"As my business grew and my client base grew, I needed to bring on more team members and decided that the name Just Ask For Sam makes it sound like it's just me, when in fact I have now a team to support me."
"I really believe in the power of mental health and self-care and the importance of it. And so I really wanted to make sure that we were incorporating that into our business model."
"I really believe in the power of running and exercise for mental health and just the overall well-being of a person."
"So I wanted to combine my personal passion with my professional passion and be able to give back to a cause that I really believe in."
"I think it's really important for businesses to be involved in their community and give back in some way."
"I just love the fact that we are able to inspire and empower women and girls through our giveback program and through the work that we do."
"I'm really excited about the future of Mama Hen Media and just continuing to grow and make an impact in the world and help as many women-owned businesses as possible achieve their goals."
