I modified this recipe via an inspiration from my good friend @johnromaniello

“Never grow up!” @jackiechan

"Only love is real." @dr.brianweiss

Voldemort, an embodiment of evil, could not bring himself to kill Harry, beause of a mark. Now, not the mark on Harry's forhead, but an invisible yet indelible mark. Love. hear, fear, and hatred are no match for the most potent weapon out there, #Love!

Life update; swipe through to read.

___________

Beyond this post, I recorded a video called Life After Cancellation, Divorce, and Testimony.

It’s an hour long, and the link is in my stories.

Whether you watch it or not, recording and posting it is more of an act of liberation than anything else;

Freeing my voice from all the moments I stifled it over the last 18 months by simply sharing my story and lived experience.

Devastation doesn’t always lead to a lessons and growth, but the alchemist mindset and identity in God were the main approaches that not only kept me sane, but renewed my spirit through the unimaginable.

In love and truth always,
Amanda

Two beers & a puppy 🍻🐶

The test is, in order to find out how you actually feel about someone, ask yourself:

Would I have two beers with this person?

And would I allow this person to look after my puppy over a weekend?

Some people are simply a no and a no.

These people are to be avoided at all cost!

Some people are a yes and no.

Great fun but can’t be trusted with anything serious.

Like looking after a puppy.

Some people are no and yes.

These people are boring and no fun but they make the world a better place.

Especially for puppies…

Some people are YES and YES

These are the people that you need in your life.

They are wonderful and every aspect of your work and life is better for them being around.

Seek them out.

Collaborate with them

Enjoy their company

Ask yourself these two questions with everyone you know.

Let me know your thoughts? 👇

The reality of my 2025 isn’t this highlight reel.

It’s that the duality of what I went through was absolutely shit-rocking, heart shredding, PTSD recovery, nervous system and identity collapse, all while rebuilding my GENIUS body of work, the most initiatory financial fucking ODESSY of a year, and meeting God deeper and deeper and deeper.

Wow.

Initiation is a word people use when they say “life absolutely fucking slapped me in the face, and I chose to evolve my consciousness through it and allowed that tsunami of an experience take me under it’s wave and shape me down like a grain of sand.”

And that’s not even the half of it.

If I could sum up 2025 from the vantage point of the last day of the year, it’s that my power?

Is absolutely l e t h a l .

It’s not some fake “unfuckwithable” performance.

I was absolutely fuck-with-able. I was fucked with. I hurt. I bled. I cried, heaved, wept, and fell to my knees.

But I used all of that energy (trauma) that made its way through my body, and turned it into ✨ beauty and fucking magic ✨in my being, my programs, my relationships, and my art.

And I anchored into myself so deeply, I became a god damn mountain of a human being.

I let myself feel it all, all the way through, without bypassing any last sliver of it.

The raw power and stability of it surging through my body at this point is the victory of 2025.

I learned what kind of badass God really truly is by allowing His love to hold me, stabilize me, and reach places I could not alone. Our Creator works in the most stunning of ways, if you allow yourself to see.

I have become the embodiment of the fierce sword of truth, wielded from a wood burning fire of honest love, and grounded deeply into my roots.

2025;
May we claim all that you gave us through the shedding as gifts for our next adventure. May we release you, and all of the threads and tendrils along with you be completed. Amen.

Share this with someone you love RIGHT NOW

We live in a world where holding people to a higher standard is villainized - perceived as some sense of control or lack of self acceptance, when in reality, it is the highest level of love we can bring to the alter of relationships, excellence, and collective change.

Hunt like a lion, sell like a lamb.

Don’t be afraid to challenge someone, ask for the sale, or look the one you love in the eyes and tell them that you wish they saw themselves like you see them.

See what happens.

Share this please. I’ve been off the grid for quite some time and I’m making my way back.

This time, I won’t be talking about the same shit everyone else is.

At this point, it’s Truth over Peace, always.

No matter how many people broke my heart this past year, we’ve remained soft, open, and receptive—but with an extra twinge of fierce discernment, and embodied self trust.

There will be people who will love you in the beginning.
There will be those who love you when it’s convenient.
There will be those who will love you when it’s beneficial for them.

And then, there will be people who will love you when it’s inconvenient, or unpopular.

And there will be those who will love you when it rubs up against something for them, but instead of shrinking away—they open their hearts to see how to evolve themselves through loving you.

There will be people willing to face conflict with you, see you deeper, and learn something about themselves through those experiences.

And if you’re rising to great heights and know you’re meant for more, you’re gonna need them.

I pray that kind of love finds you like it’s found me.

To find that, you must become that.

A Top Tier Lover:

be willing to grow, always.
Embrace and meet your own shadows.
Drop your ego.
Face conflict head on.
Repair after ruptures, rather than hastily cutting off.
Keep meeting more and accepting more of who you are.
Become endlessly curious about what it means to move from love.
Seek to understand, even when it hurts you.
Let go and love from afar when necessary — and be open to love returning under the right conditions in which your heart can be in full bloom.

And learn how and when to trust others by learning what it means to fully and completely trust yourself.

Surrender to learning more about yourself through the mirror of the person before you.

And instead of rejecting the opportunity to grow and expand deeper in love, meet it whole heartedly.

Xo,
A lover forever
