Create a culture that allows others to succeed with Amanda Wittstrom Higgins
Amanda is a force to be reckoned with. She grew up in the small agricultural town of Paso Robles, California where everyone knows everyone. In this small area of Central California, unity is the key to the success of everyone. Amanda's family and the co-owners of Ancient Peaks were an active part of the region's success as wine country through continued perseverance until they got it right. But she didn't stop there. Amanda comes from a community that believes in helping others succeed. She created a foundation called "Dream Big Darling" that assists women from all walks of life to chase their dreams. Her motivation behind her efforts is to create a space to allow everyone to succeed and live the life each individual designs for themselves.
