The Buffalo Story

When a storm looms on the horizon, most animals turn and run. They flee in desperation, hoping to outrun the darkness. But the storm is relentless—it always catches them. By the time it does, they are exhausted, worn down from the chase, with no strength left to endure.

But the buffalo? The buffalo does something different.

When the sky darkens and the winds howl, the buffalo turns into the storm. With unwavering strength, it charges forward, knowing that by facing the storm head-on, it will pass through it faster. Instead of wasting energy in fear, the buffalo embraces the challenge, knowing that struggle is temporary, but resilience lasts forever.

In life, storms will come. You can run, or you can be the buffalo. Face your challenges, stand in your strength, and push forward. The sooner you do, the sooner the storm will pass.

Be bold. Be strong. Be the buffalo.

You Are Not Alone!

Behind every strong woman is a story—one filled with storms she didn’t think she’d survive, and a light she chose to carry anyway.

Our “You Are Not Alone” page is a space where women share their real-life journeys of resilience, healing, and hope. These are not just stories—they’re lifelines. Proof that we’re never alone in the hard things, and that beauty can rise from broken places.

We invite you to read, reflect, and be reminded of the power in your own story.

If you’ve weathered a storm and feel called to share, we would be honored to hold space for your words. Email Amanda directly at amanda@buffalosagecandleco.com to share your story and help inspire someone else to keep going.

Together, we face the storm. Together, we rise.

Be bold. Be brave. Be the Buffalo.
