Intro

In this raw and heartfelt solo episode of Not So Genius Mind Podcast with Amanda McCombs, Amanda shares what it looks like when life piles everything on at once.

Through humor, vulnerability, and unfiltered storytelling, Amanda invites listeners into a moment of transition, manifestation, and emotional reckoning.

From a 1943 conversation course promising poise and charm, to handwritten family histories tracing her ancestors back to 1864 Utah, this episode explores identity, legacy, and the stories we inherit. Topics include emotional decluttering, manifestation, healing through storytelling, generational history, pageant life, and what it means to honor the past while creating something new.
