Our V.I.P. Featured Guest is Sara McDaniel. After walking through a devastating divorce, Sara was determined her story wasn’t over. In fact, far from it. Fueled by a tenacious, entrepreneurial spirit, Sara fought her way back to a new and improved life that has far exceeded even her wildest dreams. Sara’s fierce commitment to living debt-free allowed her to retire from a lucrative sales career in 2018. She was only forty-one years old. From there she stepped fully into a life of freedom and flexibility. Sara started and developed multiple businesses while also focusing her energies on the world of real estate investing. In the midst of that busy season, Sara’s social media following unexpectedly blew up and almost overnight Sara found herself as an Influencer. After feeling a divine nudge, Sara moved back home to Louisiana and happened upon an old, broken down cottage in Minden, Louisiana. The moment she laid eyes on it, she knew it was meant to be. Reclaiming and restoring that cottage became the metaphor for her life. Yes, terrible things do happen, but with faith, hope, love, and a little bit of work, beautiful things are waiting just on the other side. Sara’s work has been featured in top shelf print publications such as Better Homes and Gardens, Southern Lady, Cottages and Bungalows, American Farmhouse Style, Country Sampler Farmhouse Style plus many others. In addition, Sara has been featured online by HGTV online, Southern Living, Forbes, Domino Magazine, Realtor.com, and more. Most recently, Sara was the featured talent on HGTV Hometown Kickstart and her work has been seen on The Today Show, Cityline TV, KTBS, KSLA and KTAL news stations.
