Description: Today’s guest is Amanda Marino, founder of Next Level Recovery and one of the fiercest women I know. You might recognize her from A&E’s Intervention, but what I admire most is how she’s turned her own story into a mission to help others heal. She’s a mom of two, an unstoppable entrepreneur, and the definition of grit with heart.   Cake For Dinner is also available on Spotify and YouTube!
