A Vision for Food and Community

The Sunny Stacks Story with Olivia Smith

“When we carry out the dreams we have inside of us, there’s so much refinement and growth that happens. It’s hard work, but it’s worth it.”

“I think really all good times are happening usually around a table of food. Now I get to be someone that helps curate spaces where people can connect and enjoy themselves.”

In this episode of Thanks for Doing That, host Heather Winchell talks with Olivia Smith, the owner of Sunny Stacks Pancakes, a modern breakfast food truck in northern Colorado. Olivia shares her inspiring journey from teaching and ministry to entrepreneurship. With a vision for connection and community, she discusses how Sunny Stacks curates meaningful breakfast experiences using fresh, seasonal ingredients and even collaborations with family members. Olivia opens up about overcoming unexpected challenges, embracing hard work, and finding joy in the diversity of people her food truck brings her into contact with. This uplifting conversation highlights the power of resilience, creativity, and creating moments of light in a busy world.
