Sometimes I regret using certain phrases so much because when I really want to hammer something home I\u2019ve usually already overdone it. So, for example, I really want to emphasise what an incredible breath of fresh air today\u2019s guest is but I\u2019ve probably said that many times before so thank goodness you\u2019re about to hear from her yourself as I know you\u2019ll agree she\u2019s truly one in a billion.\n\nIf anyone\u2019s pathYAY could be said to truly veer off in totally unexpected directions at every new chapter, it\u2019s Aimee Stanton\u2019s \u2013 she has the most fascinating story so far and she\u2019s not even 30. If you\u2019ve met her even once, she\u2019s someone you want to be around more and more with the most energetic zest for life, for giving things a red hot crack and being who you truly are. You\u2019d expect that she\u2019s always been as confident and self-assured but I was surprised to learn that most of her earlier years were spent not only thinking but being told she\u2019d never amount to anything culminating in an expulsion from school and many years not knowing where her place was. But after finding her feet as an award winning plumber and shaking up the industry as a lady tradie, walking ON FOOT from Melbourne to Canberra because she could, competing on Survivor and House Rules then starting an incredibly successful business, Tiny Stays, building tiny homes with her brother, she\u2019s well and truly proved her strength, talent and drive and I bloody loved having her on the show.\n\nWe\u2019ve been in each other\u2019s orbit for a few years now through another regular podcast guest Sammy Gash and recently spend time in the NT getting to know each other even better. Ih op9e you guys enjoy her a much as I did\n\nCHECK OUT TINY STAYS HERE\n\n+ Follow Aimee here\n+ Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah\n+ Join our Facebook community here\n+ Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!
