In this vibrant and unfiltered conversation, Marlene Lowe welcomes Sandra Dailidyte—wealth manager, Lithuanian-born powerhouse, and British Masters weightlifting champion—to the Leaders in Business podcast. What follows is a bold and honest exploration of ambition, identity, and the drive to create space for women in rooms where they’ve historically been overlooked.

From her early days in post-Soviet Lithuania to landing in the UK with £550 and a one-way ticket, Sandra shares her extraordinary path to success in wealth management—and how she has built a career that unapologetically blends intellect, empathy, and strength, both mental and physical. She opens up about the challenges of forging a new path in a new country, the emotional cost of striving, and the joy of finally feeling fully herself in her work.

Together, Marlene and Sandra delve into the psychology of stress, the need for emotional integrity in leadership, and the immense power of financial literacy—especially for women. With humour, depth, and fierce clarity, Sandra offers not only a masterclass in determination but a passionate call to dream bigger, take up space, and lift others as you rise.

Whether you’re a business owner, a first-generation dreamer, or simply seeking a spark to reignite your fire, this episode is a powerful reminder: the path may not be clear, but you can still choose to walk it with purpose—and joy.
