Episode Details

Amanda Vega is a marketing strategist, entrepreneur, fractional CMO, and technology and culture expert who has spent more than 30 years helping brands, founders, and organizations find their voice, build communities, and create movements. From her early days on the AOL team to earning an MBA from Columbia University, building and selling two agencies, and now working at the intersection of emerging technology, genomics, precision health, and personalized wellness, Amanda Vega has lived through—and helped shape—the evolution of the internet, marketing, business, and human behavior.

In this episode of The VIBE with Kelly Cardenas, Amanda and Kelly explore marketing, entrepreneurship, technology, faith, health, relationships, reinvention, music, and the power of language. Amanda shares what she has learned from more than three decades in business, why she considers herself an “Internet dinosaur,” and what happens when we stop forcing people into neat little boxes.

Amanda is a co-founder of Rephase Health, focused on creating a more precise roadmap for menopause and andropause. She also works as a fractional CMO and entrepreneur across emerging technology and precision health while navigating the beautiful chaos of raising teenage boys, launching a podcast, and finding ways to keep dancing—even when a broken back has other plans.

But this conversation goes far beyond Amanda’s résumé.

Amanda and Kelly talk about civil discourse, the importance of asking difficult questions, the courage to say uncomfortable truths, and why curiosity may be one of the most important leadership skills we have lost. They explore how business, culture, faith, technology, health, music, and human connection can coexist in a life that refuses to fit neatly into a box.

At the heart of this conversation is a bigger question: What happens when we stop trying to define ourselves by what we’ve already done and start paying attention to where we are being called next?

The VIBE isn't the energy you bring into the room. It’s the way people feel when you leave.
