Drew Ann Long: Trusting the Calling That Changed an Industry
Join Leslie Gaudet and Drew Ann Long, inventor of Caroline’s Cart and founder of Caroline’s Cause, for a powerful conversation about motherhood, courage, faith, and the quiet strength required to build something the world didn’t yet understand it needed.
In this episode, Drew Ann shares how advocating for her daughter Caroline led her into unfamiliar territory—engineering, patents, manufacturing, and national retail negotiations—without prior experience. What began as a mother’s response to exclusion grew into a movement for dignity and accessibility now present in retailers across the glob.
You’ll hear what perseverance looked like behind the scenes, how she navigated seasons when doors didn’t open quickly, and the role faith and surrender played when the calling felt bigger than her credentials. Drew Ann also opens up about leading through public visibility, protecting her emotional strength while advocating for something deeply personal, and how Caroline’s Cause continues to expand the mission of inclusion.
If you’ve ever wondered whether the challenge in front of you might actually be preparing you for something greater, this conversation will remind you that grace, persistence, and trust often work together in ways we don’t see at first.
