the story behind balaveda
Meet the Founder: Amanda Hester-Smith
When life on a Tennessee farm—plus solo parenting while her partner traveled 200+ days a year—became a full-on stress test from the universe, Amanda had two choices: burn out… or adapt. She adapted.
A certified Ayurvedic and Naturopathic Practitioner, herbalist, and yoga instructor, Amanda leaned into ancient wisdom and modern grit. She traded anxiety for adaptogens, stress for sovereignty, and burnout for radiant energy.
What started in her kitchen is now a ritual in every bottle—infused with her expertise, intention, and a whole lot of heart. And now, every shot, sip, and scoop is infused with her expertise and intention.
adapt like you mean it
Whether you’re navigating stress, chasing clarity, or just want your glow back—balaveda is here to make wellness feel good again.
Born from the belief that taking care of yourself shouldn’t feel like a chore—or taste like one—balaveda delivers ancient healing in modern form.
Drink deeply.
Live fully.
And always adapt with style.
