Open & Awkward: Shop Talk with Katie & Amanda
Open & Awkward – Season 2 Episode 9: CALLING IN
Not for Everyone
What’s this podcast about?
Amanda shares highlights from her recent trip to Dollywood: great food, fun coasters (though not quite Disney-level creative inspiration), and an awkward moment of being recognized in public. Katie reveals her roller-coaster coping strategy: shutting her eyes the whole ride…HA! Amanda talks about how her monthly product drops were gaining traction until she dropped the ball (pun fully intended). They also discuss Cultivate, which Amanda lovingly dubs the Queen Mother of all trade shows. Their upcoming workshop there has them fired up, and they hope you’ll join them. It’s included in your Cultivate pass!
Plus, they’re dishing on the books currently on their nightstands and Amanda’s latest brainchild: a tool library where you can borrow her gardening gear. Brilliant, right?
