Amanda brings 20+ years of human resources and organizational leadership experience to a new kind of professional development — one that uses the science of creativity to build stronger, more resilient teams.
Amanda Bauer-Frisch is an entrepreneur, speaker, and business leader with more than two decades of experience in human resources and organizational development. She is the owner of Quilting Legacies and the founder of The Creative Studio — and a 2023 TEDx speaker whose work sits at the intersection of creativity, neuroscience, and leadership.
Amanda has spoken to audiences ranging from intimate gatherings of ten to rooms of a thousand, exploring topics from the mental health benefits of creativity to resilient leadership and workplace wellness. She leads a team of 25 professionals and is passionate about building learning environments where people feel genuinely energized to grow.
Her husband, Dr. Daniel Frisch, PhD, holds advanced degrees in neuroscience — and their shared interest in how the brain learns and connects is woven throughout Amanda’s workshop design. What participants experience isn’t just engaging; it’s grounded in how people actually retain information and build stronger relationships with their colleagues.
Amanda is based in Wisconsin and available to travel anywhere in the United States.
Every workshop can be customized to meet your team’s specific goals and can be delivered as a standalone talk, a half-day retreat, or anything in between. No artistic experience required — ever.

Goal Setting That Works
Looking for professional development that actually energizes your team — not another day of slides and passive listening.
Give your leaders time and space to step back, reconnect, and come back with more clarity and cohesion.
Employee wellbeing programs that go beyond pamphlets — hands-on, science-informed, genuinely restorative.
A keynote or breakout session that attendees will actually remember and talk about long after the event.
Celebrate your team with an experience that says "we value you" in a way a lunch or gift card simply can't.
Begin or close a planning session with a creative reset that opens minds and shifts the energy in the room.
Every engagement is a little different, and that’s exactly how it should be. Reach out to start a conversation about your goals, your group size, and what would make this the most valuable experience possible for your team.
