AMANDA MALCOM BROWN - Owner at Well Balanced SD, Feelbombdotcom

Sat down with Amanda and talked about her journey into becoming a health and wellness coach, and later a life coach.  With a deep background in hospitality, DJ'ing, and operating in the night life, we discussed being able to maintain balance, taking care of yourself, and being able to plan out your life with intention.  This has been one of my favorite topics lately as it's easy to get lost in the commotion of the industry, and so important to not lose sight of what our own goals are.  You can find Amanda at:
