Divine Delays: Sadie Voeks on Trusting the Timing of Big Dreams

In this episode, I sit down with the inspiring Sadie Voeks, a former retail and department store manager who dared to follow a vision far beyond the sales floor. Sadie is now the founder behind Portland’s first hammam—HARARA—a steam, scrub, and social sanctuary rooted in self-care and community. But like any dream worth chasing, the path wasn’t linear. We talk about the power of letting go, trusting divine timing, and how life’s unexpected turns—from the loss of a loved one, to the birth of her child, to navigating a new job—have all shaped this journey. Sadie shares what it’s been like building her vision from the ground up, including selling body scrubs and lotions at Portland markets to connect with the community one conversation at a time. Her story is a reminder that big dreams take patience, persistence, and a whole lot of heart—and that every pause, pivot, and roadblock might just be preparing you for something even richer than you imagined.     Sadie Voeks, Harara  Instagram https://www.instagram.com/hararabaths?igsh=MW9maW5yNGV4ZW1udg==     Get your free affirmation screen savers here https://www.whatsthatwhisper.com/products/digital-download?_pos=1&_psq=screen&_ss=e&_v=1.0   What’s that Whisper Instagram https://www.instagram.com/whatsthatwhisper?igsh=czZ3ZTdiYmVrZ2Vm&utm_source=qr   What’s that Whisper shop https://www.whatsthatwhisper.com
