In this episode, Amanda sits down with Mandy, the “unapologetically real” florist and founder behind The Rusty Daisy in Daysland, Alberta. What starts as a conversation about running a floral and gift shop quickly blooms into a heartfelt discussion about figuring it out: motherhood, small-town business, and building a true sense of community.
Mandy shares how her “village” helped her balance entrepreneurship and parenting, why loyalty matters in rural business, and how she’s built a store that’s as bright, cheeky, and down-to-earth as she is.
If you’ve ever wondered how small-town businesses keep going through all the pivots and plot twists, then this one’s for you!
