About our guest:

Amanda was born in Texas, grew up between Phoenix and Nashville, and has spent most of her adult life bouncing between New York, San Francisco, and now Montana, collecting incredible friends and a whole lot of life experience along the way.

These days, she’s raising her seven-year-old son, Gus, alongside a small zoo consisting of an Australian Shepherd, a Maine Coon cat, and a Quaker parrot. She loves working from home, having the mountains of Montana in her backyard, and finding any excuse to hop on a plane to see the extraordinary community of friends she’s collected around the world. She firmly believes chosen family is one of life’s greatest gifts, and that most good adventures should involve a little dancing.

By day, Amanda is the Vice President of Programming & Events at SOCAP Global, where she leads a globally remote team bringing together thousands of changemakers, entrepreneurs, and investors working to make the world a little better. Basically, she’s made a career out of bringing people together, which makes perfect sense to anyone who knows her.

Becoming a mother without having much of a blueprint for motherhood herself has been her greatest adventure, and raising a compassionate, hilarious, emotionally intelligent little human is hands down her proudest accomplishment.

Through it all, she’s remained a big believer in the goodness of people, the importance of showing up for one another, and the idea that family isn’t always something you’re born into—sometimes it’s the beautiful, messy, hilarious thing you build along the way.
