Ep 11 Amanda and Jeff Lee
Bee Keepin is the life for Me
Amanda and Jeff Lee were a Vancouver BC power couple, both key members of the Vancouver Sun and Postmedia newspaper group. Then one day, Amanda took a “Science of Fear” challenge put on by one of her clients. That challenge was to experience what is known as a “bee beard” – that’s where the queen bee was placed on a string around her neck and thousands of worker bees were released to climb up her throat and onto her face.
That was the beginning of an incredible journey that transformed her and Jeff’s lives. Goodbye newspaper business. Goodbye big city. And in the words of Green Acres theme song, “Farm Living Was the Life for Me” – bee keepin’ as a career is the place to be, land spreadin’ out so far and wide, Keep Vancouver, just give me that countryside. It was and is an adventure in agriculture and entrepreneurialism.
Amanda and Jeff share their career path in this episode of Careers That Matter.
