Life doesn’t always take a straight path. For Greg Sands, the road was winding, filled with obstacles that tested his resilience. But through perseverance, faith, and an unwavering belief in second chances, Greg turned his story from struggle to success—both in business and in giving back to the community.
Greg was inducted into the South Dakota Hall of Fame in 2024 for his legacy of giving and his ability to inspire others to live their best lives. He joined South Dakota Hall of Fame Board Director Marci Burdick to discuss the path that brought him to where he is today.
In this episode, you will hear about:
- How Greg’s mindset set him on a path to success
- Why doing what is right is a way of life for Greg
- Greg’s philanthropic endeavors
“It’s important to only focus on the hurdle that’s in front of you. You can’t focus on the fifty hurdles past that. Just take them one at a time.” - Greg Sands
