Make Money by Turning Adversity into Impact | Brenda Snow

Brenda Snow is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, and author who founded Snow Companies, the first-of-its-kind global patient engagement agency. After being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis nearly 30 years ago, she turned her personal struggles into a mission to give patients a voice, empower them through education, and improve their treatment experiences. Starting with no funding, she grew the company from just herself and one employee to over 425 staff, nine figures in revenue, and recognition as the gold standard for patient storytelling and support.

On this episode we talk about:

  • How Brenda’s MS diagnosis inspired the creation of Snow Companies

  • The power of storytelling in patient advocacy and engagement

  • Navigating highly regulated industries while innovating solutions

  • Growing from a one-client consultancy to a 400+ person global agency

  • Why perseverance and hard work—not overnight virality—are the keys to lasting success

    Top 3 Takeaways

    1. Personal challenges can reveal massive gaps and opportunities for impactful businesses.

    2. Patient-first storytelling builds trust, connection, and long-term engagement like no marketing campaign can.

    3. Scaling from startup to nine-figure success requires years of hard work, culture-building, and strategic hiring.
