Meet my Best Friend, The Most Caring and Compassionate Person Around

Welcome to Street Smarts, the podcast powered by SmartWolf Consulting! I'm your host, Darrell Steed, here to bring you expert insights, real-world experiences, and practical tips from the front lines of the auto industry.

Today’s episode is extra special for me because I get to sit down with one of the most caring, dedicated, and inspiring people I know—someone who’s been by my side since high school and has spent her life mastering the art of leadership, coaching, and personal growth.

She’s a champion-level cheerleading coach whose impact goes far beyond the sidelines. Sherry Newell is an inspirational leader who has built her success on a simple but powerful philosophy: failing forward—learning from every challenge and misstep and turning them into steppingstones for greatness.

Through years of education in communication, coaching, and mentorship, Sherry has developed a deep understanding of connecting with people from all walks of life. She knows that being genuine, invested, and genuinely caring about others is the key to leadership—because people don’t just follow words; they follow those who are invested in their success.

Today, we’re diving into her journey, lessons, and insights on leadership, and I can’t wait to share this conversation with you.

So buckle up and get ready for some real talk—because this will be a good one.

Welcome to Street Smarts, Sherry Newell!
