🎧 New episodes drop every Wednesday.
In the very first episode of The Truth About Reselling, hosts Amanda Anderson (@amanda.commonthreads) and Sam Strom (@samanthastorms) get candid about how reselling actually works in real life — motherhood, burnout, ADHD brains, algorithms, money fears, and all.
This podcast series is for people looking for a flexible, lucrative career — one that can adapt to real life instead of demanding burnout, perfection, or hustle-culture nonsense.
In this episode, Amanda and Sam share how two very different paths led them into reselling — and why it stuck when traditional jobs didn’t. Amanda breaks down her journey from a failed COVID-era boutique to a six-figure reselling business across Whatnot, traditional platforms, and social media, all while raising four kids. Sam opens up about stepping away from corporate tech and VC-backed startups, navigating motherhood burnout, and finding a more sustainable way to earn.
They talk candidly about:
- Why reselling attracts ADHD and non-linear thinkers
- Posting daily vs. selling smarter (and what algorithms actually reward)
- Pallets, thrifting, bins, arbitrage, and high-end sourcing — without gatekeeping
- The emotional weight of financial dependence and career pivots
- What really happens when a reselling video goes viral
- Why there is no single “right” way to resell — and why that’s powerful
Whether you’re exploring a career pivot, building a side hustle, or scaling what you already have, this episode sets the tone for the series: honest, practical, and refreshingly human.
