Soaring High: Sandrine Gressard's Journey with Girls Go Fly
Welcome to Season 3 Episode 2 of Living With Purpose! In this inspiring episode, we sit down with Sandrine Gressard, the visionary founder of Girls Go Fly. Sandrine's passion for aviation knows no bounds as she encourages women of all ages to take to the skies and become pilots. Together with her husband, she owns a small fleet of 5 planes and operates an island aerodrome on Isle-aux-Coudres, nestled beside the stunning Le Massif ski hill in Quebec.
Sandrine's dedication doesn't stop at aviation. She is also a part-owner of Improov, a training company where she plays a pivotal role in ensuring staff retention and well-being. Sandrine actively participates in daily training programs, maintaining her commitment to staying updated and in integrity.
One of Sandrine's most recent "dream come true" moments was ferrying a single-engine Piper from Goose Bay, Canada to India alongside five other pilots, managing a total of three planes. Her capacity to adjust to any situation and her incredible talent in bringing people together are just a few of the qualities that make her an exceptional leader.
Join us as Sandrine shares her incredible journey, the challenges and triumphs of promoting women in aviation, and her unwavering commitment to fostering a supportive and thriving community. This episode is a testament to living with purpose and soaring to new heights.
