🎙️Our last episode of the 2025 Rural Unrecognized Podcast is here!
Olympian @sarahwells400mh (Sarah Wells) joins Amanda after delivering her keynote at the Flagstaff Celebrate Success Gala to talk about what it really means to pursue excellence — not for applause, but for who we become in the process.
Sarah shares how her journey from the track to the stage taught her that excellence isn’t about medals or titles, but about choices, resilience, and redefining success when the plan falls apart. From missing her second Olympic qualification to finding purpose in failure, Sarah opens up about identity, discipline, and why hope matters more than winning.
Whether you’re chasing a business goal, raising a family, or just figuring out what’s next, Sarah’s message hits home: excellence is who we become when no one’s watching.

✨ New on the Blog | Figuring It Out with The Rusty Daisy ✨
For more than a decade, The Rusty Daisy in Daysland has been a living example of what happens when passion, perseverance, and community come together.
Founder and florist Mandy has built a business that’s as bold, creative, and heartfelt as she is. From a 500 sq. ft. shop to a beloved Main Street destination, she’s learned that success isn’t about having a perfect plan, it’s about figuring it out one step at a time.
💡 In this month’s blog, Mandy shares what 13 years of entrepreneurship have taught her about:
• Leaning on your strengths
• Building around what you love
• Staying true to yourself
• Choosing community over competition
Her story is a reminder that small-town business is about more than sales,it’s about connection, courage, and showing up every day with heart.

🎙️New Episode!
In this episode, Amanda sits down with Mandy, the “unapologetically real” florist and founder behind @rustydaisyco (The Rusty Daisy Gift Co.) 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!
