The Out of the Trenches Podcast
Education
Smith Minard teaches Spanish at Seattle Academy of Arts and Sciences, where she also coaches tennis and helps lead outdoor and international trips. She earned her B.A. in Spanish and Sociology at Furman University, where she spent a semester abroad in Spain, completed undergraduate research on second language acquisition, and did an internship at the US Hispanic Chamber of Commerce in D.C.
Her most recent accolade is becoming a bestselling author of her debut book “Embrace Your Story: A Young Woman’s Guide to Discover Who You Are, Where to Go, And Why You Matter.” A mentor for almost a decade and honorary big sister, Smith has logged thousands of hours spent with young women, hearing their stories, and helping guide them through life with tips and practical wisdom. She wants readers to know that they have what it takes to embrace their own story, no matter how messy it may seem. Smith is a Georgia native, loving life currently in the Pacific Northwest.
When she’s not teaching or writing, she is finding joy in her journey by reveling in the little moments, like enjoying a great sunset, a good book in the sunshine, or a hike through the Cascades with her fiancé or closest friends.
