Manda here! It’s crazy all the different paths life chooses to takes us down. If you know me, this venture is a long time coming. It’s changed course so often I am left dizzy, but true to the name I chose for my business, I have held a dream in my soul without ever really knowing the destination. It has morphed as my life and family have. Being a mother to my now 3-year-old son has altered my perspective so fully. Focus on family has taken me completely. Being a mother, sister, and daughter has been my full-time gig lately. The job of co-parenting in respect and love, renovating our family home, and managing the daily struggles of survival has left me little time for these dreams I have held so dearly inside for all these years. However, I find myself finally moving onto the path of self-realization in my own intentionality, love of self, and actualization that I am worthy of all my dreams coming true. Although I am still learning to find balance in my life, the universe has guided me to make this leap. I thrive in offering my services. I have worked for 20 years creating unique and fun experiences in the food and beverage industry, and now I can finally put into action all my ideas. Starting as a mobile cafè, I will be popping up at a festival near you! I will also be putting all my bar experience into play making your special event spectacular with an cocktail, mocktail, and coffee bar you’ll not soon forget! The most exciting path for me was learning, to my utter surprise that my path forward lies in herbal medicine and food as medicine! Stay tuned as both my business and I grow leaps and bounds! It may begin small, but as I say, here at The Coddiwompler, it is ALL ABOUT THE JOURNEY!.
