031. Living Intuitively With Amanda Buhse of Coal & Canary

We all know the saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.” To some, it’s easier to make lemonade because they already have the tools for it, but this is not the case for everyone. Fortunately, the CEO of Coal and Canary, Amanda, listened to her intuitive ideas when life gave her a bunch of lemons.

Jessica and Amanda are like two peas in a pod when following their intuition. They had similar experiences from ectopic pregnancies to suddenly building their business. These ladies ask the universe and listen. 

This is a sign. You should listen to this episode and learn from these extraordinary ladies.
