“I had a six-figure sales year in my FIRST year of business. Just saying that feels surreal.”
— Allison Caulfield
Amanda is a business changer, a game changer, a LIFE changer. Future You Coaching is absolutely the BEST investment I’ve made in business...and trust me when I say I was hesitant about the money. Investing in yourself can feel scary, but having Amanda in your corner is the farthest thing from it.
Before working with Amanda, I constantly felt like I was "doing it wrong" and like there was some secret to running a business that I was missing. I was really spinning my wheels nonstop trying to figure this whole online entrepreneurial space out.
If I could use one word to describe my biz pre-Amanda it would definitely be OVERWHELMING. I even remember hopping on my first call with A and talking a mile a minute about everything that was going through my brain. She really helped me take a step back to see things more clearly and strategize from a place of calmness and alignment, rather than chaos and hustle.
I love Amanda's no-BS approach to business that feels SO refreshing in the online space which really promotes hustle culture, and a grin & bare it mentality. Amanda really helped me feel HIGHLY aligned in my business by calling me out in the best sort of way on the thoughts that were holding me back. I am now a firm believer that mindset truly is everything and that Amanda can help you quiet the mean-girl voice in your head so you can level up BIG TIME.
She has helped me stomp out limiting beliefs, up level my mindset, and sell my packages at price points I never thought imaginable. I had a six-figure sales year in my FIRST year of business. Just saying that feels surreal. Amanda's assistance in getting me to that point is undeniable. I signed 2 multi-5 figure contracts and feel more aligned in my work than I ever imagined.
The non-tangible results I got from working with Amanda....holy shit I could write a book about this. Amanda really helped me TRUST MYSELF to make decisions in my business that are both strategic and right for me. Her mindful approach to business really opened my eyes to the fact that there is no right or wrong way to do things, there is just my way. And I'm learning to accept that as being more than enough.
I would recommend Amanda to absolutely anyone—especially biz newbies who feel like they have lots of mindset blocks to overcome. Heck, I will brag about Amanda to anyone. She is a genuine person with contagious energy. She will really help you get out of your own way and see things from a fresh perspective.
If you are on the fence about this investment, consider this your sign to GO FOR IT! Seriously, I’m writing this testimonial and Amanda didn’t even ask me for it. That’s how much I believe in this program. I promise you the results and clarity that are waiting for you on the other side are beyond worth it.

“I had the confidence to raise my prices and reached my highest income months ever.”
—Chelsea Blackwell
When I started working with Amanda I was struggling to feel confident and worthy enough to grow and thrive. I felt like my business was lacking organization and planning. I struggled to cultivate the confidence I needed to scale my business in a way that felt sustainable for me long term.
All that shifted during the six months of working with Amanda. Together, we created a marketing plan that brings in leads and clients consistently—I’m getting so many inquiries from qualified people every day! I grew my newsletter list by 17x and I was able to book out my projects to create a waitlist.
I had the support I needed to launch my online brand shop and create a coaching offering, adding additional revenue streams to my business. My stress also shifted from having no work to TOO MUCH work to handle! I even started hiring a team. I also had the confidence to raise my prices and reached my highest income months ever.
The confidence and mindset piece was huge for me. I genuinely believe that you can have all the business strategies in the world, but if your mindset isn’t aligned with growth, you’ll have a hard time progressing. Amanda helped me to step into my CEO role and I can’t thank her enough.
Amanda is such a natural mentor. She has this magical way of helping you see your blind spots in a way that feels empowering. She never prescribes a fix, but helps empower you to make the decisions that feel best for you. She is so encouraging and honestly just an absolute wealth of knowledge in mindset, of course, but also business and marketing!
Honestly, if you’re thinking about hiring Amanda, don’t hesitate any longer. She is an expert at her craft and I truly believe that she has the power to change anyone and everyone's life and business. She helps you to see and realize the things that are hindering your growth—things that when you’re out there on your own, you’d never realize.
She is seriously like the fast-track to growing your business because she provides the perfect balance of strategy and mindset. It would have taken me years to accomplish everything that I did in six months with the help of Amanda.
She is such a kind, smart, wonderful soul and I truly cannot say enough good things about her!

“I quit my 9-5 and had my first $20k month!”
—Carly Russell
Before working with Amanda, I was still at the beginning stages of building my business and was still working my 9-5. I was working mornings, nights, and weekends on the business, figuring things out as I went. I was enjoying the challenge but couldn't really see how turning it into a full-time gig was *really* in the cards for me.
Amanda gave me constant support, and she perfectly mixed the mindset work I needed with tangible marketing and sales strategies into our sessions depending on what I needed help with in any given week.
Amanda will help you focus on the right things so that you can grow your business – whether it's mindset work, tangible strategies, or (more likely) a mix of the two. She's such a good listener and incredibly compassionate, but you can always trust her to be really honest with you and give you the tough love when you need it!
Investing in a business coach when I did – which was AFTER I had spent time figuring some stuff out on my own and doing foundational work, but BEFORE I really felt successful or was able to sustain myself full-time – was one of the best business investments I made.
Amanda taught me to give myself permission and feel less guilt around working less so I can enjoy the freedom I have because of my business. I no longer sit in front of my laptop 8 hours a day just because that's what I was expected to do at my 9-5. These newfound boundaries around when and how I work are what allowed me to work and play around Latin America this summer with 20+ other remote workers, another dream of mine that has manifested during our time together.
When I began working with Amanda, my prices were a quarter of what they are now. I quit my 9-5 job, surpassed my 9-5 income in my first year in business, and had my biggest income months ($20k to date)! Amanda helped me develop a consistent marketing strategy that has become a non-negotiable, and I’ve launched my digital course while getting over SO many of the mindset blocks and imposter syndrome I had around launching. Now I feel empowered to launch new offers, market them consistently, and determine my focus so that I don’t end up with decision paralysis.
My two years with Amanda have truly gotten me to where I am today, which is a spot where things don't always feel easy but I have sooo many tools to keep growing, recognize my mindset blocks, and know where to focus my energy to enjoy today while also continuing to set up a future I envision.
Amanda’s not only an expert in what she does but she'll make it feel like you're talking to a friend—so it becomes easier to leave your comfort zone and do what you need to do to grow your business. I would 100% recommend Amanda as a coach to others—and I do all the time!

“I hit a five-figure month immediately after our work together.”
—Marion Tan
Before working with Amanda, I was stuck trying to make everything perfect in my business—my website, my process, my words. I obsessed over every detail without realizing that none of what I was doing was actually bringing in results.
I was dwelling so much on what was going on behind the scenes that I didn’t realize that I wasn’t showing up and getting my business in front of my ideal clients so people could actually be made aware of how I can help them.
I felt this uncomfortable desperation to hit my goals fast, but at the same time, they felt so out of reach. It left me uncertain about whether I even wanted to push through with this “crazy” business idea endeavor.
Amanda made me feel like nothing could go wrong in my business because I’m capable of finding solutions when challenges arise and she was always there to support me if I got stuck. This one was a game-changer considering how much of a perfectionist I am! It’s what really allowed me to lean into taking messy action and seeing results faster than I thought—even if things aren’t perfect!
Amanda has this magical way of pointing out things in my business that I don’t see and knows how to translate my jumbled thoughts into a clear and concise action step. I love how she approaches this with so much simplicity and insight. I never feel intimidated implementing the strategies we’d brainstorm on.
Literally, every time I hop on a call with her—I always have a renewed sense of clarity and motivation because of how quickly she’s able to guide me in managing the limiting thoughts and emotions that can get in the way of running my business.
One thing that I found really transformative with my work with Amanda was how she was able to help me uncover things I never even realized about myself. This helped me approach my business in a way that works for me and in a way that feels good to me. Now that I’m fully aware of my triggers, I’m able to address my issues and my drama with so much more ease and lightness.
She’s helped me overcome mindset blocks that would’ve still held me back had I not worked with her, and because of that, I’m able to make decisions faster without overthinking it too much. This is what ultimately led to the results I never thought I’d have this early on in my business!
I could go on and on about the results of working with Amanda. I’ve shown up more consistently than ever on social media without stressing out about content. I finally had the right mindset to start an IGTV series collaborating with industry leaders, increasing my following and my engagement (and have had really amazing engagement on my stories and posts!). I even created a lead magnet that was so well-received that I started to grow an email list.
I booked my second and highest project at a rate 24x more than my first client—only 2 weeks into working with her. I’ve booked at least 2 consult calls for my services every week since working with her. That helped me to get booked out months in advance (since week 2 of Future You coaching) and reach my income goals faster than I could ever imagine!
I hit a five-figure month immediately after our work together, all while powering through personal struggles. And overall I feel a sense of peace, calmness, confidence, and security that my business will thrive as long as I put in the work.
Future You coaching was a really transformative experience and I can definitely say I’m not the same person I was when I met Amanda. Even to this day, I can still hear her voice in my head whenever I find myself getting caught up in something that is more likely to hold me back than move me forward.
If it wasn’t for my work with Amanda, I still would probably be obsessing over fixing my website without seeing any real results. Investing can be scary—it almost always is. I was honestly scared to invest in mindset and sales support at first but it was one of the best decisions I made. Working with Amanda is an investment that will pay for itself, not only now, but also years down the line.

“I now have proper positioning to be a thought leader in the space.”
— Stephanie O'Dea
Before working with Amanda, my business was at a stand-still. I knew sort of what I wanted—but it seemed so far away and far-fetched that I couldn't figure out the numerous steps I needed to take in order to get from where I was to where I wanted to go. I had a lot to show for myself in some areas, but I was ready for a pivot and needed guidance on making my dreams into a reality.
Amanda is a real person—someone I'd like to hang out with in real life. I had been listening to her podcast for a good 6 months before deciding to sign up for a complimentary call. I already knew I wanted to work with her before getting onto the call. I liked that she had pivoted her business and that it took her a while to gain momentum after the shift. I wanted to work with someone who had been-there-done-that. The stories she shared on the podcast and her "woo-edness" resonated with me. I am woo, but also practical. I heard a lot of myself in her words.
Coaching is important for anyone who is ready for an upleveling in life. It is so valuable to have a non-judgemental person listen to your thoughts and shine a light on the ones that do not work and helpfully guide you towards new and helpful thoughts that will lead you to where you want to go.
During Future You coaching, I gained clarity on who I am and what Slow Living means. I launched a new website and branding, started a new podcast (that landed in the top 100 in multiple categories), updated and sold my group coaching course, booked clients, sent off two fully written book proposals, updated a TV pitch, and secured a new literary agent. I now have proper positioning to be a thought leader in that space.
Working with Amanda, I gave myself more permission: permission to be proud of myself even if I don't make a certain amount of money, permission to make mistakes, permission to trust that the Universe will meet me halfway, permission that it's okay to ask for help, and permission to have faith that things ARE happening for me, even if I don't muscle and hustle my way to them!
I would absolutely recommend working with Amanda as a business and marketing coach, as well as a general life coach. I truly believe that all coaching is life coaching—so while I hired Amanda to have another set of eyes on my business, she helped me sort through some instances in my past I hadn't fully healed from and helped my outline the steps needed to live out my entire Life Vision—the business is really just a way to make money—there's an awful lot more in life than that. ;-)
— Stephanie O'Dea, New York Times Best-selling Author, Speaker, Life Coach, Host of the Slow Living podcast
“I’m seeing high-ticket clients literally pop out of nowhere.”
—Xindi Soh
Working with Amanda has been hands-down the most transformational experience I've had in my business - there's officially a 'pre-Amanda' and 'post-Amanda' version of me.
When I signed up to work with Amanda, I want to say that my business journey was a rollercoaster - but that would imply that there were 'up' days. Instead, I was constantly cycling through 'going all-out' and 'taking a social media detox' leading to very little progression in my business. This was hugely frustrating for me because I was able to create incredible results for my own clients so the strategy worked which led me to believe that there was something wrong with ME.
What I love about Amanda is that she is not a 'Yes (wo)man' - she's a coach who can see through the BS my fear brain is throwing out at her instead of someone who agrees with whatever I say. Even though I'm no stranger to mindset work, we quickly realized that I was solving for the wrong mindset blocks and once we got clear on that, we were able to make huge strides.
I'm proud to say that I'm now showing up for my business with insane consistency and seeing high-ticket clients literally pop out of nowhere as a result of all the work we've done together.
So, if you're on the fence about working with Amanda, all I have to say is if you're willing to take action and be vulnerable, she will be able to guide you to the finish line.
—Xindi Soh, Brand Messaging and Marketing Specialist
“She has helped me get more clients, grow my income, and consistently hit my monthly revenue goal.”
-Andrea Barras
Before working with Amanda, I felt scattered and unable to reign in my ideas, never sure what to focus on next, or what to put my energy into. This sense of overwhelm resulted in little-to-no action being taken, and I wasn’t hitting the goals I set for myself, or even inching any closer towards how I wanted my business to look and feel.
Amanda has honestly been a godsend for me and my business. I feel so much more confident about so many aspects of my business. I am now continuously growing and looking at things through a different lens thanks to her guidance. I’m so grateful that she came into my life at just the right moment to help me find the focus and clarity I so desperately needed. I love having someone in my corner who I can share both my wins and challenges with.
Amanda is amazingly caring and kind. It’s really nice to feel heard and supported by her. I love how positive and high vibe she is—I always get off our calls feeling motivated and like I’ve just spoken to a friend. I also love that I have access to her in between calls too, and that she always responds thoughtfully and with action steps in mind. While motivating and encouraging action, she also holds space to allow me to just feel what I'm feeling in the moment, acknowledging ‘humanness’ alongside business—giving myself a little more grace in other words.
Since working with Amanda, I now have more confidence in my ability to take control of my finances. I have less fear around ‘sales’ in general. I feel encouraged to lean into what I love and do best because we did the work to identify what lights me up and pursue that! I have more confidence in how to attract clients, how to find work, how to take more action during my sales process, and a continued reminder to look after myself physically (and not just to look after business).
During our 1:1 calls, Amanda has helped me in so many ways. She has helped me get more clients, grow my income, and consistently hit my monthly revenue goal. She assisted with messaging in my marketing material, on social and on my website (actual help with copy too) and reviewing all my materials to make sure they aligned. I now have clarity around communicating my offers and coming up with a plan to market them, a better approach to organizing and keeping track of leads (a physical lead tracker), and better pitching and follow-up practices. Amanda has really helped me to focus, make a plan, and make intentional decisions (something I really needed as I felt so scattered and aimless).
It was a no-brainer for me to carry on working with her after our initial 6-month programme was up. Amanda always has sage advice to offer—and I really can't recommend working with her enough—I wouldn’t hesitate in the slightest!
-Andrea Barras, Branding & Design
“I finally created space to slow down and let my business serve me.”
—Kelsey O'Halloran
Amanda is like a business therapist; she's easy to talk to and helps you unpack what's really going on in your business. She pushes you to step out of your comfort zone and break out of the mindset blocks that have held you back in the past so you can create the life and business you truly want.
I worked with Amanda during the six months leading up to my maternity leave and I can't imagine how I would have navigated this season without her support. I loved being supported by someone who cared deeply about not only the success of my business but my success as a human being.
During our 6 months together, I launched and grew a new service, booked more clients, had some of my best months in business in terms of revenue, hired my first team member, launched my first course, started showing up consistently in my marketing (blogging monthly, posting to Instagram 3x/week, sending email newsletters regularly, etc.), raised my rates to reflect the value I was providing, and finally created space to slow down and let my business serve me.
I felt empowered with more trust in myself and my ability to make decisions in my business. I found it easier to give myself more grace in slowing down—planning my days around how I want to feel rather than chasing an impossible to-do list. I was able to own the value I provide my clients, both in how I set my pricing and how I talk about my services. I even found myself letting go of perfectionism and giving myself permission to experiment in my business which supported me in launching my first course without getting overwhelmed.
Amanda helped me push myself out of my comfort zone and also lean into what truly feels good for me and my business. She has changed my business in the best way, allowing me to approach my days with more confidence and ease and grow in a relatively short amount of time. I'm beyond grateful!
—Kelsey O'Halloran, Copywriting & Brand Messaging
“Since working with Amanda, I’ve hit my highest revenue month.”
-Samantha Madeo
My business used to overwhelm and underwhelm me at the same time. My goals felt unreachable because I couldn’t nail down a consistent marketing plan that felt comfortable and effective. I wasn’t taking the action I needed to take, leading me to constantly feel like I was behind.
With Future You coaching, Amanda helped me set a sturdy foundation for my business. We broke through a lot of the mindset pieces that were holding me back from marketing my business consistently, which has allowed me to experience so much growth. I now have a solid marketing plan that I feel confident with. It’s even brought back the fun and creativity in my business!
Since working with Amanda, I’ve hit my highest revenue month and know that the consistent revenue months I desire are right around the corner.
Amanda is so supportive and helps me get to the root of the thoughts, patterns, and habits holding me back. She is honest and encouraging and creates a safe space for coaching—I never feel judged or ashamed about anything I bring to the table. She is willing to work through anything, even if it’s a topic we’ve revisited time and time again.
Future You has taught me so much about trust and giving myself grace. As a result, I no longer feel the unnecessary pressure I was putting on myself; in return, my confidence and how I show up in my business have completely changed.
I highly recommend Amanda as a coach to anyone looking to shift their mindset and implement practical action into their business. She offers the perfect balance of insight and strategy, so you can understand how mindset ties into concrete action that will transform your business!
— Samantha Madeo, Brand & Website Designer
“From the way I show up and talk about my services, to the copy I write, I no longer feel salesy.”
—Jenny Henderson
Before working with Amanda, my business was going through a significant lull, and I was feeling lost and unsure of how to get things back on track. I had been doing everything on my own for 3 years and knew it was definitely time to get support.
Amanda is the real deal. She is exactly the kind of person you want in your corner to support you. From our very first conversation, she was able to identify hurdles that were getting in my way that I couldn't see for myself. She will 100% help you get where you're going faster – and she'll make it fun too.
Mindset work was something I underestimated, but I would say it was the most significant gain from our work together. Amanda is great at reading between the lines and seeing what you cannot. This led to a few amazing breakthroughs that have made me feel lighter and more aligned in my business overall. This is something I would never have been able to achieve without her guidance.
Amanda supported me through the launch of a new program. I had done launches before, but working with Amanda really helped me optimize everything for better results. It actually made the launch process quite fun!
Overall, working with Amanda really taught me how to become more comfortable with sales. From the way I show up and talk about my services, to the copy I write, I no longer feel "salesy.” I have gained so much confidence in my ability to speak in a way that my audience needs to feel good about investing with me.
As entrepreneurs, I think we have a tendency to put a lot of unnecessary pressure on ourselves, and working with Amanda gave me the permission and perspective I needed to shift my way of thinking which made a huge difference in my day to day. She is patient and understanding and is so good at making things feel easy.
I cannot speak highly enough about Amanda. I am so grateful for her support, patience, and perspective. Just get on a call with her and experience her brilliance for yourself.
—Jenny Henderson, Brand Strategist + Designer
“Working with Amanda has been a game-changer for me and my business.”
— Christy Howitt
Working with Amanda has been a game-changer for me and my business. When I first connected with Amanda, I had plateaued in my business and wasn't feeling any of the inspiration I first felt when I began it. I was seriously teetering on the edge of burnout.
From my very first call with Amanda, I began noticing the shifts. We dove into my offers, my messaging, my content, and other aspects of the business. Amanda, in her incredibly insightful way, helped me fine-tune everything so it all felt so good again. That's one of the things I loved most about working with her - she has amazing business knowledge but she also looks at the whole picture and, importantly, the mindset and energetics behind the actions.
We looked at my life outside of my business - since everything is so interconnected - drawing some eye-opening parallels that truly turned a corner for me. I have not seen this kind of momentum, with new clients, new income, and new LIFE in my business in a long time.
Amanda is the sweetest, kindest, most empathetic expert in her field, someone who genuinely cares about YOU as much as she does your business success and I couldn't recommend working with her more! Don't sleep on any opportunity to learn and grow with her. It's the BEST decision you'll make today.
— Christy Howitt, Book Coach, Author, Founder Calla Creative Studio
“Marketing is easy once you know exactly what steps you need to take to land clients.”
—Dominique Tan
Before working with Amanda, I had a never ending to-do list and didn't know what to focus on. It felt like I was marketing and selling all the time but never getting more clients. My business felt unmanageable and like I had no idea how to run a business.
I love how simple and clear Amanda is. She really meets you wherever you are and gives you realistic advice. Amanda was so patient with me as I was stuck for a couple weeks with the same mindset issue.
Through our work together, I learned what the fundamentals of my business are. Amanda provides excellent feedback on all documents and business projects while teaching you the WHY behind the small (& simple) shifts.
She helped me learn how showing up and marketing is easy once you know exactly what steps you need to take to land clients. During our time together, I created a clear marketing message and landed my first client for a new offer!
Because of working with Amanda, my business became more fun! I now have a better work-life balance since I know exactly what I need to prioritize. I now see that taking care of my body & health ARE the best things I can do to support my growing business. My time with friends and family improved because our coaching sessions gave me a place to talk through all the business thoughts.
Overall, I felt so held & supported. I had previously been a part of group coaching programs and the cookie cutter advice didn't work for my life & business - working with Amanda HAS. I would highly recommend working with Amanda. It has been so valuable.
—Dominique Tan, Move with Refinement
“I went from having no inquiries to booking dream clients.”
—Chloé Meresse
Before working with Amanda, I was struggling with visibility and marketing my business. I had built a lot of stories in my head about people not wanting my services or my content not being good enough. Not only that, but it felt like there was a “secret formula” to business that everyone else had figured out except for me. I felt like there was a “right” way to run my business and I was completely missing the mark. It made me wonder if I had what it takes to be an entrepreneur.
With Amanda’s support, I found a way to market myself that feels good to me. I finally got the courage to overcome my limiting beliefs around writing content and owning my expertise. I started a blog, promoted my content more widely, and increased my visibility. I went from having no inquiries to booking dream clients. I even raised my pricing—something that felt completely out of reach before!
During Future You coaching, my confidence soared and I started trusting myself more. I stopped looking for the “right way” to run my business and instead embraced doing business in a way that feels good to me. I now run my business from a place of intuition and alignment and as a result, have built incredible momentum.
Amanda also helped me shift my mindset around selling in a BIG way. I went from loathing sales calls to absolutely loving them as I gained confidence in my ability to talk about my services and the value I provide.
I'll say it like it is: working with Amanda has completely turned my business around. I truly believe I wouldn't be where I am today—working with dream clients, owning my value, looking forward to sales calls (!!)—without her incredible support.
The work we've done in Future You coaching has not only impacted my business, but it also had a profound effect on my personal life. I have grown so much during our time together. I'm a much more relaxed, happier person. I celebrate the wins no matter how big or small. Amanda has shown me that it's possible to build a business AND enjoy life at the same time and that happiness AND fun are available to me right here, right now.

“We’ve seen more of a following on social media, more clients, more income, and more impact on our community!”
—Emily + Wheeler Juell
Where do we start?! We want to give credit to Amanda for almost everything positive that’s happened in our business!
We started working with Amanda just a few short months after starting our design business and we seriously don’t know where we would be without her help. When we first reached out, we thought we had some money mindset blocks to work through. We didn’t feel confident in our rates or in our ability to land new clients and it was showing up in our life and business in a multitude of ways.
Amanda is the REAL DEAL. Not only did she help us to feel more empowered, own our value, increase our pricing, and become more confident in our proposals, but she also helped us to see that we needed a marketing plan we could rely on to bring in new leads and land new clients. We worked on that and so much more, from actioning a better routine to creating more organization, structure, and clarity on our processes. As a team of two, she also helped us to identify better ways to collaborate and work internally.
The homework she assigns is incredibly powerful and effective. When we get stuck, she’s just a quick message away.
She’s motivating and inspiring which we find pushes us to make that extra effort. In our opinion, that means she's a damn good coach. Through our work together, we’ve seen more of a following on social media, more clients, more income, and more impact on our community!
Amanda will see your blind spots, find your resistance, and coach you through those mindset blocks—and in our case, they aren’t what we ever think they are. We found we were telling ourselves so many stories that were standing in the way of business growth and she comes in and acknowledges your story, but gets you OUT of your story and INTO a new belief. She’s also hilarious and we laugh a lot on our calls. She has great energy and after our calls, we feel that energy for days!
We recommend Amanda as a coach to everyone! Especially creatives! She has a background in design and her own creative business so she really knows what it’s like to be in our shoes. If you’re thinking about working with Amanda, just do it. It’s so, so, so worth it. You’ll be amazed by the results, the relationship formed, and the things you learn about yourself.

“I confidently raised my prices and was able to increase my overall revenue while reducing my number of clients.”
—Sarahna Fernandes
Before working with Amanda, I didn't feel in control of my business. It felt like I was just going wherever life took me and that things happened at random. I also believed that I could only grow and get ahead by doing more and more work and by putting out even more effort than I already had. That left me feeling overwhelmed and defeated.
I adored how easy it was to work with Amanda and how incredibly supported I felt by her. She truly made me feel seen and heard. She advised me in a way where I knew I was at the center of her insights. It suited my life, my personality, and my energy. I love that she kept me focused on my goals but also helped me abandon the notion of hustle that was consistently draining me. She helped me find the confidence to truly believe in myself and my capacity to steer my life in the direction I desired.
Amanda helped me understand that I didn't have to keep doing more and more things in order to grow and that EASE was possible and aligned with a successful business. I became far more confident and empowered about growing my business. I trusted myself more and embraced my value. I finally started to believe that I had the power to make decisions that served me, pleased me, and led to financial success. She also helped me understand that if I don't show up for my business and talk about what I do, I won't be able to reach the people I truly want to serve.
After 1:1 Future You coaching with Amanda, I confidently raised my prices and was able to increase my overall revenue while reducing my number of clients. Amanda also helped me to streamline my email marketing strategy. This allowed me to spend more time with my family and enjoy my personal time. I was able to create my dream range of service offerings which helped me to diversify and increase my overall income.
Amanda is a wealth of knowledge and makes you feel very safe. She was one of the first coaches I've ever worked with who helped me unlock my superpower. Most people in the past have advised me to 'slow down' and only focus on one thing at a time, without realizing that my brain worked best when it was required to fire off several things at once. I also had to learn that this didn't mean pushing myself constantly. There was a delicate balance of ease and execution. It was such a beautiful realization for me, and it's the main reason why I've had consistent results and avoided burning out like I used to.
I reference and rave about my time with Amanda all the time because it left such a mark on my business and mindset. I would recommend her to anyone who wants to get results in their business. She's an inspiration and lives out what she teaches, which was invaluable to me!

“Amanda helped me to restructure and define my services so I could get to the heart of what I offer and feel good selling it.”
—Chaucee Stillman
Amanda is the perfect blend of real tactical business advice and also the mindset (I didn't even know) I needed to cultivate in order to show up, grow my business, and feel confident in my pricing and abilities.
When I first started working with Amanda, I wanted to lessen the fear and stress I was feeling around discovery calls so I could generate more leads and feel more confident in my ability to get clients in my business.
Amanda helped me to restructure and define my services so I could get to the heart of what I offer and feel good selling it. She provided insightful and helpful feedback for my landing pages, client journey process, client communications, and marketing materials.
Her marketing insight has helped me to develop a marketing plan that works with my schedule AND delivers the results I need—more booked discovery calls and more clients that are outside of my personal network.
I have made my investment back working with Amanda, and then some. She helped me start attracting my ideal clients on a consistent basis and hit income goals DURING A GLOBAL PANDEMIC. Because of that, I was able to pay off my credit card debt (a long term goal of mine).
Amanda is the total package. Her business acumen and intuition are on point—she’s a dedicated and compassionate mentor whose goal is to see YOU thrive, as well as your business.
I would absolutely 100% recommend Amanda as a coach to others. If you’re at a tipping point in your business, if you’re changing tracks, or switching things up, Amanda can give you the support you need to reach those goals and feel GOOD about it.

“She came at the perfect time in my life to help me make massive progress in my business.”
— Megan Powell
Amanda is the perfect mix of supportive, understanding, and knowing just when to poke and push you. She is a master at helping you re-frame and come up with solutions to whatever difficulty you are experiencing. She came at the perfect time in my life to help me make massive progress in my business, something that would have taken much longer to do on my own.
Before working with Amanda, my business… oh man, it was awful. I felt so stuck, so frustrated, so unclear of how I wanted to move forward, and most of all lacking the support to actually take each small step.
I loved that our sessions were unstructured and we could dive into whatever was most pressing at the time. Even when the same thing I was struggling with came up over and over again, Amanda continued to keep supporting me, helping me re-frame it. At one point she even said, "I will say this as many times as it takes to have you believe it". That one sentence resonated so much with me and I think about it often.
I love that Amanda is so open, supportive, and so full of energy. I came to her at literally the lowest point in my whole life—without much drive or inspiration—and at every call, she showed up like it was the best day she ever had. That energy was amazing for bringing me up a level and seeing what is possible.
I am now clear on who I’m talking to and built my content plan on top of that. Writing content went from feeling like a drag and being stuck, to super easy and resonating deeply with my audience. I built a marketing plan, launched a new website for a new niche, and got my first client since coming back after a break.
I also find that I’m giving myself SO MUCH more grace than I was before. I have more confidence in who I am, that I am qualified to be doing what I'm doing, and that I know what to say to reach my audience. Starting small and taking super tiny micro steps is what built this into something so much bigger.
I would 100% recommend Amanda as a coach to others! I can't wait until we can work with each other again!

“It was the consistency and the small, actionable steps that allowed for the snowball effect to happen.”
—Cassie Ballard
When I started working with Amanda I was undergoing a big shift in my identity. With each new health discovery, fertility battle, loss, and birth, I have felt pieces of who I once was (or what I once desired) slipping away. Things that once lit me up, felt superficial and unnecessary. I was feeling extremely limited on time and it left me feeling stuck. I felt the effects of too many ideas and possibilities taking over my ability to start a project or grow a one-day business.
I found that sometimes you just need to invest (financially and with your time), for you to be dedicated to shifting your priorities and giving the passion projects the attention they deserve. It wasn’t until I had committed to the three-month partnership that I felt fully invested in jumping in and creating big change.
During the three months working together, I was able to really get the ball rolling and see progress on a passion project that had been brewing inside my head for over a year. We found clarity in the high-level brand strategy all the way down to the smallest details of a content calendar.
She helped me get out of my own way when it came to mental blocks around “being an expert” and find sustainable ways to show up for myself and my business. It was the consistency and the small, actionable steps that allowed for the snowball effect to happen. She was there every step of the way, gently guiding me, but allowing me to step into that expertise on my own.
I loved so many things about working with Amanda, but I believe what pushed me most was her ability to look at a situation through an unattached lens and challenge me to see things in a new light. She would ask really great questions and propose alternative ways to a problem that had been swirling for a long time.
I would absolutely recommend Amanda to anyone who needs a gentle form of guidance that also produces results… for someone who needs to move at their own pace, but be pushed at the same time… for someone who is scared of commitment… for someone who is learning to own their expertise… for anyone who needs an accountability buddy, Amanda is PERFECT!

“I found that returning clients were happy to pay my higher rates!”
—Li Ang
When I started working with Amanda, my business was struggling to gain visibility. I felt utterly overwhelmed by the thought of writing marketing content and felt so much dread around doing it. Together, we created a content marketing plan I felt good about and I had the ongoing mindset support I needed to continue to take action on it until it started to come more naturally.
I am now transformed!! Not only am I consistently writing content, I actually enjoy writing it. I love sharing bite-size pieces of value in every piece of content I put out. I’ve found this has helped me to build trust, gain visibility, and know that I’m helping people to understand how my work can serve their business!
I’ll also admit, I had no idea what I was doing with my time before I worked with Amanda. Together, we implemented a time blocking system that has been a game-changer, giving me a flexible structure to move through my days.
Through Future You coaching, I gained the confidence to increase my rates and stand behind the value my work offers. There were so many mindset hurdles surrounding this, especially when quoting returning clients who have been with me since the start of my business journey—when I was charging peanuts and undervaluing myself. Working with Amanda helped me to stay anchored in my value and I found that returning clients were happy to pay my higher rates!
My biggest takeaway from our time together is that the same fears and limiting beliefs are going to come up again and again (in different costumes) during the business journey. Amanda helped me to understand that doesn’t mean I’ve regressed or there’s something wrong with me (as I used to think). They are coming up again because I’m up-leveling myself to the next version of me and the fears are simply a light to show us that we are constantly progressing and upgrading ourselves! Isn’t that grand!
You can figure this out on your own (like I was doing) but having a compassionate expert like Amanda on your support team helps you see your blind spots and repeating patterns. Coaching brings a different perspective to how you run your business (because it's too easy to stay in your own little world with a 'narrow' view) and because of that you figure things out faster and your transformation happens faster!
Overall, I am so much more confident in the way I present my work, show up on sales calls, and own my value. Confidence is a magical thing.
I definitely recommend Amanda as a coach. She creates a non-judgemental space for you to bring up your fears, explore them, and calls you out on your own BS in the most loving and firm way :)
