My guest is a hard working, honest, compassionate individual. She has also been described as clever, funny, down to earth and blunt. She loves helping people and making a difference to people’s lives. She despises mouth noises, and loves a challenge. Iif you said she could not do something, she would set out to prove you wrong.
Meet Lissy Wood.
Lissy is originally from a farm near Kimba on the Eyre Peninsula, a true blue country girl. Lissy is now a financial advisor in the Clare Valley, starting her own business four years ago called Vestra Wealth.
Vestra is Greek for 'your', translating to 'your wealth'. Pretty cool!
Lissy has now two people working for her, Alice and Sheree. These two make the show run behind the scenes and Lissy says she couldn't do it without them. So these three musketeers now have clients right across South Australia and interstate.
Also Lissy was the winner in the People's Choice for the All-Rounder category at the 2020 SA Woman Awards. She is also a mother of three girls and a wife to Ryan. Over the next half an hour, you'll get to know Lissy, what makes her tick and how she thrives in an industry that has its complex challenges.

This podcast is all about showcasing talented people in the Clare Valley and across the mid north of South Australia. It is all about recognising those people that started with nothing, who have then built a name, a brand, a successful business through sheer grit and determination. These people are not heavy hitters, they are not making squillions of dollars but they are making a difference to themselves, their families and their communities.
My two special guests today are Nadinne Wilkinson, an accomplished photographer from Snowtown, who takes beautiful photos of families, new bubs and weddings right across regional South Australia and Alysha Sparks, a talented artist from Jamestown, who transforms her surroundings into magical masterpieces. Both are from the land, both are mums, and both have two boisterous boys nipping at their heels.
So over the next 30 minutes, you'll hear how these two women began their successful ventures and how they balance professional and family life and seem to make it work.
