Hey besties, it’s your girl Amanda Dare, and I’m on a mission this Women’s History Month—and I want you to come along for the ride! 🚀✨

You know I’m all about putting money into the wallets of women (because duh, Woman-Owned Wallet), but this March, I’m taking it up a notch with the Shop & Shout Challenge! 🎉

What’s the Shop & Shout Challenge?

It’s simple: Every day in March, I’m shopping at a woman-owned business and leaving them a review. And guess what? I want YOU to do the same! Because showing up for women means more than just shopping—it’s about boosting their businesses, hyping them up, and making sure everyone knows just how amazing they are. 💪💖

Here’s how you can join me:
Shop from a woman-owned business
Shout them out with a glowing review ✨
Share your experience (and tag me!) using #ShopAndShout

Reviews matter. They help small businesses get seen, trusted, and, let’s be real—booked and busy! So let’s be the hype women we were born to be. 🎤🎶
