We had the good fortune of connecting with Amanda Chase and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Amanda, do you have a favorite quote or affirmation?
“Make Something of Substance” is a quote that I created a long time ago when I was exploring my own creative expression and vision. I believe in creating content that makes you feel something, that lights you up inside, that sparks inquiry or curiosity. I create with passion and heart. Everything that I create is meaningful and tells a story that others can be influenced by as to start their own inquiry within themselves. I believe we all want deeper connections, deeper meaning, and deeper purpose in our life. The work that I create is an embodiment of those simple human desires.

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
ōSHen is here to help brands create harmony in the world. We take a holistic approach to content creation – one that is balanced, making sure the mind, body, and spirit are all in alignment before taking action. Creating from this space allows us to alchemize content for our clients that are unlike any other. The content is a reflection of deep wisdom and creativity that requires deep internal and external work. We work hard to make sure that each of our clients are expressed authentically to them. We also create original content for our brand. We are walking the walk and talking the talk. We believe that there is enough for us all – enough resources, enough ideas, enough customers, enough creativity. We are vulnerable, honest, integral, and true to ourselves.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
There is nothing more special than the love of someone who wants to see you become the very best version of yourself. Thank you, Marcus, for your endless support throughout the darkest days of my career. The studio that you designed for me to pursue my passions is truly a dream come true. Thank you for seeing me and being by my side through it all.
