Sandy Stewart

Sandy Stewart is the creator and founder of Think Big, an outsourced Sustainability support and training program for small and mid-sized businesses. She is a 2xBest Selling Author, Sustainable Business Consultant, Carbon Footprint Specialist, Value Growth Expert, Social Impact Strategist, Speaker and C-Level Mentor.

She believes that companies that care for their people, their customers and their community have a duty to run a profitable business. A thriving sustainable brand has options that a shrinking business does not. She wants to help all mission-driven brands to grow and scale and to do so sustainably.

She built her million-dollar consulting business through learning how to seek out opportunities from anywhere. Her focus has been on SMEs and SMBs and has specialized in scaling through strategic alliances, value growth, strategic planning, business development, financial modeling, functional structures, growing teams and now also sustainability.

She has been teaching a methodology for creating intentional alliances for good for over a decade. In 2020 she lost her business after betrayal, divorce, burnout, and then ultimately, the pandemic put the final close on that door.

She transitioned to a focus on sustainability and mission-driven passion projects, and she grew like never before following a methodology she’d been teaching for years. This time with more focus, intention and a lot more fun. 

Her story is now in print and she is a 2xbest selling author. Her first book, ""Show Your Work: Successful Women Share the Bumpy Roads To Their Biggest Wins"" launched in April 2023 and her newest book, ""Point Taken: Brilliant Business Advice from Women at the Top"" launched in April 2024. Both books hit Amazon Best Seller in 7 categories each.

She can help you set a strategy for scaling your idea, point you in the right direction, connect the dots for who to look for to meet ideal strategic alliances and how to make the most out of your SXSW networking and connecting.
