    Mom of Three into Tequila Entrepreneur | Mara Smith [55]

    Mara Smith, former CPA and attorney turned founder of Inspiro Tequila, discusses leadership, parenting, and what really transfers across professional and personal life. Rather than following a single linear trajectory, her journey defines how hard skills (law, accounting, strategy) and so-called “soft” skills (empathy, decisiveness, adaptability) compound over time. She also helps clarify and explain key differences between various types of tequila. The conversation also touches on the challenges Mara faces as a woman in a traditionally male-dominated industry, her commitment to quality and authenticity, and the role of empathy and leadership in her entrepreneurial journey. ▬▬▬▬▬ Resources ▬▬▬▬▬ Mara Smith: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mara-smith-inspiro/Mark Bromberg: https://www.linkedin.com/in/markbromberg/Inspiro: https://inspirotequila.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cacklemedia/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@cacklemediaX: https://x.com/CackleMediaLLCYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CackleMediaLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/cacklemedia/Support the pod when signing up for Descript / SquadCast: https://get.descript.com/transferableskillSign up for our newsletter: https://shorturl.at/WDrfTWant to be a guest on the show?: https://shorturl.at/umZ2l ▬▬▬▬▬ Timestamps ▬▬▬▬▬ 00:00 Introduction to Transferable Skills 00:17 Understanding Tequila Varieties 01:52 Mara's Career Journey: From Law to Business 03:41 Balancing Family and Career 05:27 Transition to Entrepreneurship 14:14 Challenges and Success in the Tequila Industry 21:29 Balancing Parenting and Leadership 22:37 Direct Feedback and Clarity in Leadership 24:19 Tequila Entrepreneurship and Family Dynamics 29:50 Building a Brand from Scratch 30:53 The Inspiration Behind the Brand Name 33:14 Guilty Pleasure Jobs and Organizational Skills 37:32 Concluding Thoughts and Reflections
