Summary
Can you imagine going from 11 in-person clients to over 100,000 virtual clients in just a few years? It sounds impossible and yet my guest Amanda Tress has inspired and motivated thousands of women (including me) to live a truly healthy and happy lifestyle through cutting-edge fitness and nutrition strategies.
Amanda Tress is the Founder and CEO of the FASTer Way to Fat Loss, an eight-figure business that’s growing so fast it’ll make your head spin. Amanda created the FASTer Way to Fat Loss program as a way to teach her clients how to burn fat and live a truly healthy lifestyle through intermittent fasting, carb cycling, macro tracking, whole food nutrition, strategic workouts, and a positive mindset.
The speed of which her business has grown is truly mind-boggling. I’ve been following her journey over the last few years and she never fails to impress me. Since launching her business, Amanda has served over 100,000 clients and has become one of the most successful female entrepreneurs in the country.
I know what you’re thinking – how did she do it? And, what can other female entrepreneurs learn from her?
In this episode, we discuss:
- How Amanda grew her FASTer Way to Fat Loss into an eight-figure business
- How to manage a fast-growing business without getting overwhelmed
- The importance of empowering clients to become micro-influencers for your brand

| 0:19.7 | Amanda Tress has an eight-figure business that is growing so fast it will make your headspin. |
| 0:26.3 | I personally enjoy following different entrepreneurs and diverse industries from afar, and that is what I have been doing with Amanda Tress for the last few years. |

| 0:46.7 | was doing behind the scenes, but also to see if her program would work for me. To my surprise, |
| 0:52.6 | my former client, my attorney, and my friend, Danielle Liss, |
