In this episode, I have the most inspiring and joyful conversation with Author and Businesswoman Sandy Davies. We talk about her journey starting from her Kansas-born roots to her current home in Queensland, Australia; to how some challenges she faced during perimenopause launched her out of semi-retirement; to her “magical” experience as an extra on the set of the teen adventure series Dive Club.  A gifted story-teller Sandy is, and what a gift the conversation turned out to be.   

About The Guest: Sandy Davies

Long before writing books and launching HappyPause™, Sandy Davies was born and raised in the American Midwest in the state of Kansas. Sandy accidentally ended up in Australia, and stayed.

Sandy’s mantra is it is never too late and you are never too old.

An allergic reaction to a treatment for intimate dryness during perimenopause launched Sandy out of semi-retirement to become the Queensland Australia based formulator and founder of award winning HappyPause™ Balm.

As a bit of a rebel who struggles taking ‘no’ for an answer, Sandy turned the lack of a simple, preservative-free natural solution for intimate dryness into her mission. The creation of HappyPause is Sandy’s ‘yes.’ A tiny pearl of HappyPause puts a spring back in your step. Creating HappyPause has brought Sandy unending joy in her second spring. 

At every chapter of life Sandy has thrived on giving back as a part of her ethos. In this HappyPause era, Sandy’s Australian Pay It Forward partner is The Period Project working to eradicate period poverty.

When not writing, packaging and processing HappyPause orders and heightening menopause awareness, Sandy enjoys helping others and spending time with her husband and their rescue dog Karma hunting nautilus shells along the fringing reefs of The Great Barrier Reef at the edge of the World Heritage Listed Daintree Rainforest. 

You can find more inspirational stories from Sandy in the co-authored #1 AMAZON Women & Business best seller Courage & Confidence What it Really Takes to Succeed in Business and Sacred Promise, edited by Dr Tererai Trent, Oprah Winfrey’s favourite guest of all time. Sandy’s anthology The Power to Rise Above about resilience and teenage bullying will be available in late 2022.
