About the Hosts
Ashley Kindsvatter
Co-Host
Hi everyone! My name is Ashley and I'm 1/2 of United SHE Stands. I'm from a really small town in Northeast Ohio and still reside in Northeast Ohio today in a larger suburb of Akron with my husband and son. I've been working in IT in corporate America since 2012
but I've always had an interest and passion for politics and leadership. For years, I've wanted to do something to make a difference. That desire collided with the idea to start a podcast and Sara telling me it wasn't completely crazy. Which leads us here, to United SHE Stands!
I'm here to learn, to help other women who want to get involved understand and feel empowered in politics, and to make sure we remember that we are not our political affiliations, but we are humans and Americans who have more in common than we often realize.
In my spare time, I love spending time with family and friends, traveling, and throwing back a few craft beers.

Hello, lovely people! My name is Sara and I'm 1/2 of United SHE Stands. I'm from a very small town in the middle-of-nowhere Northeast Ohio and currently still reside in Ohio. I've been working in IT in corporate America since 2019 and always felt like it wasn't completely filling up my cup. I knew I wanted to do something that more directly helped people, but I had no clue what and where to start. Thankfully, Ashley came up with the amazing idea of United SHE Stands and asked me to go on this crazy ride with her. How could I say no?
I'm here to listen, learn, build a kind and safe community full of connection, and spread as much sunshine as I can to our listeners. We can make a difference... TOGETHER!
For fun I love to hike, travel, and cook! You'll often find me at a local brewery... or drinking craft beers on Ashley's porch.
