YNAB: You Need a Budget

In this episode, the host celebrates Pride Month and introduces her digital sidekick, Amanda Guadalupi. They discuss the challenges of living in a constantly changing world and how emotions are particularly complex for those with ADHD. The conversation covers a variety of topics, including the importance of asking oneself 'how am I doing?', the journey of starting a business, and the continuous evolution in both professional and personal life. Amanda shares her story of being newly diagnosed with ADHD, her experience working with the host, and how she integrates her passions into her business. They also explore tools for organization, the importance of small beginnings (including starting), and the value of supportive communities. The episode concludes with an invitation to join their community and participate in upcoming events focused on decluttering and personal growth.

Amanda Guadalupi is the founder of Mind Your Queer Business, where co-creation and big feelings build unforgettable brands. She feels the most aligned with entrepreneurs who feel a little too human for business as usual. She’s a queer, neurodivergent strategist who accidentally built a business after recovering from burnout, grief, while also becoming a parent and getting diagnosed with ADHD. (It was a lot.)

Now she supports values-driven entrepreneurs in building brands with soul, and helps them use AI to amplify their voice, not replace it. Her work lives at the intersection of identity, visibility, authenticity—and the kind of strategy that won’t make you rich overnight, but might actually feel good to live inside. On her new blog Mind Your Queer Mama, she explores the mess, meaning, and magic of being a neurodivergent parent and entrepreneur. She lives in Vermont with her partner and their wild little wonder. When she's not working with creatives, you can find her knee deep in sensory bin filler & forgetting that she's turning 39, not 40.
