Amanda Bouldin

The open and honest Amanda Bouldin is the woman behind the @afterhourswithamanda TikTok account, where she shares her experiences of motherhood with her partner Blake and their three daughters, giving advice to her 1.4 million followers. She also hosts After Hours With Amanda, a parenting podcast that’s not just for parents.

Bouldin began by posting the usual family stuff to her Instagram account. But it was when she started using TikTok that things changed. She started by making fun and silly videos, but was then inspired to make one after her daughter had an interaction with another little girl in a playground setting that left her feeling unsettled and perturbed. She ranted about how people needed to be kind and that video went viral, clocking up a million views in 24 hours. She then began thinking of stories of conversations she’d had with her children to share because she felt that in the parenting community, everyone talks about how their kids have different issues, but no one ever tells you how they’re dealing with it. Her family and her parenting advice soon became a sensation, clocking up 1.4 million followers with close to 74 million likes.

Bouldin regularly connects with her millions of followers and fans through TikTok, and Instagram, posting pictures and videos of her day-to-day life. She is also available for that personalised shout-out via the Cameo platform, and has a dedicated YouTube channel, After Hours With Amanda.
