Meet The Founder
SAM CARTAGENA
Sam Cartagena was working in the New York corporate world—one where she made many sacrifices in the name of “success.” Then, she got unexpectedly laid off. “I lost everything I'd worked so hard for, and realized that the biggest sacrifice I'd made was losing touch with myself. I decided then to stop chasing others' definition of success, and begin creating my own.”
That's where Ambition + Mischief was born—as a space where success comes from doing the inner work first. Cartagena’s first product was the Intuition Incubator—a deck that asks powerful questions to invite powerful answers.
“I’m proudest of the women I work with who’ve inspired the Intuition Incubator deck. Against all odds, they continue to show up for themselves. Despite what they’ve been told is possible, they’re committed to bringing their inner visions to life. These women are doing the inner work to create their own definition of success, tap back into their intuition, and build a life and business on their own terms.”
