Her brand is more than just her custom made items- although most famous for her mom swag and ‘Cool’ line, it’s about creating a community and believing in 𝗰𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗲𝘁𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 all day everyday.

In this episode Amanda and I discuss navigating through our pandemic fatigue and how important it is to check in with others and yourself during these uncertain times. She shares how she's been coping with being a full time educator and Mom and how often times guilt has set in trying to balance both roles. While 2020 was a wild year, we both mentioned how purposeful last year was and how much growth we've both experienced. Due to Amanda's personal and professional growth, she realized that her brand was coming along for the ride. She mentions her rebranding and how her "My Wild Tribe" name has been a catalyst for this change. With the rebranding comes triggers. 

We announce our collaboration to bring you a new monthly series, where Amanda is the cohost: "Girl Check Yourself!  Reality Checks with Dis Bitch!"
