Ever wonder lessons from nature could transform the way we build businesses—and live our lives?
In this heartfelt and inspiring episode of The Rooted Founder, I sit down with Amanda Bustillos — entrepreneur, nature lover, and family business leader — to explore the deep connections between nature, health, and entrepreneurship.
If you’ve ever felt pulled in a million directions trying to grow something meaningful while staying true to yourself, this conversation offers both grounding and guidance. Amanda’s journey building a family business centered around bird feeding is a testament to tenacity, resilience, and the quiet power of trust—trust in the process, in others, and in yourself.
Amanda opens up about how moments in nature have shaped her outlook, why gratitude is a cornerstone of her success, and the ways health challenges can become unexpected opportunities for growth. Through stories and hard-earned wisdom, she reminds us that true success is defined not only by what we build, but by the peace we carry and the positive impact we leave behind.
We explore:
✅ How nature can inspire and ground both business and life decisions
✅ The resilience required to build and sustain a family business
✅ Why giving yourself and others grace is essential for growth
✅ How health challenges can strengthen clarity and purpose
✅ The role of gratitude in creating both fulfillment and success
This isn’t just a conversation about business. It’s about rooting deeply in what matters, tending to the things (and people) we love, and trusting the seasons of growth along the way.
If you’re ready to see business through a lens of peace, gratitude, and meaningful connection—this episode will meet you there.
