Donette H&D ,

A positive addiction!

Working at my jewelry bench, I get encouraged and have had some clear insights while listening to Amy and her guests. She is so relatable to any creative person making their way online. Wish Amy had more than one podcast a week!

Lemon and the Sea ,

Great conversations!

I love Amy’s different approach to business podcasts. She focuses on stories from business owners and the conversations are great. Plus there is always an actionable takeaway.

Kristy SI ,

Amy is so genuine and warm!

Amy genuinely wants to help people. A lot of podcasts are one big sales pitch. I never get the feeling that I’m being sold to on this podcast. I just binged on season one and I can’t wait for season two!
