"When you order from Amanda you are ordering more than just a price of art. She really pours her heart into her work and into her amazing customer service. You would think you are the only customer she has because she’s that awesome. She makes you feel like you’re best friends! Do yourself a favor and order from Amanda!!

I never thought I'd be here. Every week, I get the honor of emailing a list of people that wholeheartedly support me with anything I do in my business. The truth is, it still brings a smile to me face whenever I get a notification that someone has chosen to subscribe and hang out with me week after week. 

After some time of trying all the ways everyone else tries to build a list, I decided to try something different. I decided to serve a free resource that I was passionate about. 

We have to be willing to set ourselves aside and stop trying to get something from others, but give to others. That is where I went all wrong. I tried for years to build a list because everyone else said this was the best way to advertise. Then, I put myself in their shoes. Did I really want my inbox full of advertisements? Nope. I want an inbox full of encouragement.
