What if a life-altering diagnosis could be the catalyst for a profound personal transformation? Our guest, Mandy Church, takes us on a heartfelt journey from her childhood in Alabama, deeply rooted in her grandparents' natural lifestyle, to the founding of Great Faith Organics. Mandy's story began with a lupus diagnosis in 2008, which pushed her to seek alternative healing methods inspired by her family's generational wisdom. She shares how embracing local resources and reconnecting with the earth led her to a path of wellness, ultimately changing her life and the lives of many others.

As we trace Mandy's entrepreneurial journey, we witness how faith and gratitude became instrumental in her success. From her modest beginnings on Etsy to opening a physical location in Pell City, Alabama, her resilience and dedication shine through. Mandy's education in herbalism, Ayurveda, and Reiki not only enriched her business offerings but also fueled her personal growth. Her story is a testament to the power of community and the importance of aligning one's work with personal values, a journey that has seen her thrive with the support of her family and friends.

The conversation also takes a thoughtful turn as we explore the significance of self-care, mindfulness, and the art of setting boundaries. Mandy opens up about her own near-burnout and the transformative power of taking an annual hibernation break to maintain a sustainable work-life balance. Together, we reflect on the therapeutic benefits of herbal teas, conscious consumerism, and the growing trend of valuing authenticity and local support. With a shared commitment to personal well-being, we eagerly anticipate future updates from Mandy and other inspiring guests, ensuring a series of conversations that continue to uplift and inspire.
