Susan turned her own devastating divorce into a mission to prevent what the statistics reveal: 80% of women are unprepared to navigate divorce, 44% fall into poverty post-divorce, and $113.5 billion in child support sits in arrears.The Sparrow Collective isn't a shelter. It's a sanctuary. A fully equipped, intentionally designed community providing safe housing, comprehensive empowerment programming, and holistic support for women in the critical 1-3 year window after divorce—the period when women are most vulnerable to slipping into poverty.They explore:Why slowing down and allowing space to breathe is essential when building something transformationalWhat happened when the "perfect" property fell through—and how Susan held the vision with loose handsWhy this model is replicable and scalable across underutilized properties nationwideThis is a conversation about holding big vision with open hands, trusting divine timing even when doors close, and understanding that the energy behind the movement doesn't stop when one opportunity ends. Connect with Susan:Contribute to the mission here.Previous Episode: Redefining Divorce SupportTheSparrowCollective.orgFacebookSusan.SparrowCollective@gmail.com________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with Wendy:LinkedinInstagram: @wendy.harropFacebook: Phineas Wright HouseWebsite: Phineas Wright House PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated Experience and TravelInterested in being a guest on the show?
