Amanda Batula Opens Up About Her Desire to Start Her Own Business
Amanda, who oversees creative at Kyle Cooke's beverage company Loverboy, opened up about her desire to start her own brand on Season 8, Episode 10 of Summer House.
"When I was younger, I had big dreams of being a fashion designer," she explained in a confessional interview. "In high school, I took a fashion design class, but my inability to sew shut down those hopes and dreams. But I can design, and I know what I like, so it just seems like it's time for me to maybe create my own thing."
As seen in the clip above from Summer House Season 8, Episode 10, Paige and Ciara Miller spoke to Amanda about her career path and informed her of their thoughts about her creativity and abilities as an entrepreneur.
"When I think of you, I see you as like running a company or, like, all these brands are like, 'We gotta get Amanda Batula on this and see what her eye [is],'" Paige said. "I just see you at photo shoots being like, 'No, no, this is cooler.'" Ciara added that she pictured Amanda "being the creative director of a brand."
"I feel like you said that," Ciara told Amanda. "Like you thought you would work your way up and be a creative director."
Amanda admitted her discouragement with starting her own line, saying, "It's like, 'Where do I begin?' and then I get overwhelmed, and I'm like, 'You know what, that's a dumb idea,'" she says.
Paige however, encouraged her to take the plunge. "Anything you do, you're gonna f-cking crush it."
Though Kyle is now excited by his wife's new venture, he was initially resistant to the idea as he grappled with how it could impact Amanda's involvement at Loverboy.
"[It] threw me for a loop," he admitted on the Summer House After Show while discussing his initial reaction to Amanda's desire to start her own brand. "I'm like, 'What you're talking about is starting another business, which is cool, but we don't have any spare time for that right now.'"
It appears they have since worked through that, as Kyle commented on Amanda's recent announcement post: "So happy[,] excited and proud!"
