“I don't live neatly in a predefined box, so it's jarring and uncomfortable for them. Now I just lean into it all. I’m all of these things: I love sex, I’m a mom, I’m also a VC-Backed founder.” - Amanda Goetz, Founder of House of Wise, BBE Episode 7
This week on the BAD BITCH EMPIRE podcast, I spoke with Amanda Goetz, powerhouse single mom of three and VC-backed Founder of House of Wise, a luxury CBD and wellness brand that empowers women to take control of their sleep, sex, stress, and strength. During our conversation we discuss the importance of living your authentic truth and rejecting societal labels that hold women back. We also explore how establishing strong boundaries permits the freedom to build our empires and live the life that works for us.
We also discussed:
- How she broke free of Good Girl Brainwashing to live her authentic truth
- How establishing boundaries helped her leave a marriage that wasn’t serving her, and prioritize her goals and happiness
- How she leads with empathy to create a positive and sustainable work culture
- How she reframes her weaknesses into superpowers
- Why choosing yourself is the greatest act of self-love

Bad Bitch Bytes:
“My superpower is calling out bullshit and aligning to find a new way of looking at something”
Reframe Your “Gaps” as Superpowers: What you perceive to be a weakness may actually be one of your greatest strengths. Rewrite your narrative to focus on your superpowers.
“Finding my power to file for divorce was the greatest act of self-love I’ve ever done. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but I’ve never felt more in alignment with my truth and Bad Bitch power.”
Choosing Yourself is the Greatest Act of Self-Love: Take back control of your life. Ground yourself in your own worth by putting yourself first. Get comfortable saying no and clearing the noise to go with your gut.
“When relationships end, it’s because they were absorbing the energy that I needed to achieve my goals.”
End Relationships With People Who Don’t Support Your Journey: Take audits of your relationships. If they no longer serve you, release them. Although it may be difficult at first, it will only open up more time and energy for those who support your growth/evolution.
