Kirsti McNabney

Today, we are thinking about pioneers in their industry, creating space and opportunities for the overlooked.  This interview is with the one and only Sarah Stockdale the CEO and Founder of Grow Class, a pioneering initiative aimed at empowering women and equity-deserving individuals to thrive in growth marketing roles.  Sarah is also the insightful mind behind the newsletter “We Need to Talk About This’, where she fearlessly tackles topics that are often overlooked in mainstream conversations.

At the heart of Grow Class is a powerful mission: to dismantle barriers and open doors to information that has long been guarded by gatekeepers.  Through accessible content and inclusive practices, Sarah and her team are on a mission to redefine the landscape of growth marketing and create opportunities for underrepresented voices.

Sarah shares her journey from building growth teams for VC-funded startups to venturing into consulting. Along the way, she observed a troubling trend: the homogeneity of individuals occupying these pivotal roles.  This realization sparked the inception of Grow Class as a bold experiment to bridge the gap and empower a diverse range of aspiring marketers.

In this episode, learn why rejection isn’t the end but merely a stepping stone on the path to success and the ‘secret sauce’ to cultivating a thriving community while building authentic connections and fostering a sense of belonging.

Tune into this enlightening conversation that promises to inspire and ignite you.
