A Letter From Amanda

Amandimation grew from the space of wanting to give creatives of all backgrounds the freedom and possibility to create at a high end level. Most importantly, Amandimation provides a space for artists to create from a place of who they uniquely are, and not who they feel the need to be.

My entire life, I’ve been multi-faceted taking interest in many things at once: dance, piano, jewelry making, computers, technology, art — and my entire life, I’ve always felt like I was “too much.” “Niche down,” "Focus on one thing,” "Figure out what is is you want to be.”

And to this I say,
To the person that can only do one thing, you will always look lost, confused, or all over the place. But to the person who has leveraged their skillsets to lean upon each other, and is doing everything and more to live their best and most successful lives, they will never feel the need to put you down.

While I do believe it’s important to establish a niche and position yourself with some degree of authority and expertise, I also believe with the age of social media and “influencing,” business strategy has shifted so much in the modern age — and if you’re not ready to innovate and pivot, then your business is going to be left behind.

People nowadays are not only hiring the person with the most accreditations or highest levels of degrees, but instead, they are booking the person who has lived the experience and found success on the other end; the person they see parts of themselves in that gives them hope that their goals are in reach, as well.

When we shine our light and live in authenticity to our truest selves, we give others permission to be themselves. And in a world that’s always telling you what you can and cannot be, permission to be one self is one of the greatest gifts we can allot others.

Since the pandemic shut down, I have invested and studied heavily with top coaches and mentors in business, dance, neuroscience, and spirituality, healing both my own trauma, while helping others of all different backgrounds, find empowering meanings and new identity in theirs.

I used to suffer from chronic fainting due to an inability to control my nervous system from severe anxiety, as well as entirely starting my life over again after leaving an abusive relationship. At the time, it was a lot to hold as one person with very little to no tools on trauma to do so; and so I share my story with you to show you that your past does not define your future, and you can always choose to pick up the pen and say:

This will not be my story.

Today I am the creator of my reality, and I hold the pen to write my next chapter.

It’s only when I learned how to accept and integrate all parts of myself wholly, truly, and authentically, that I realized so much of what holds others back is the same obstacles: judgement, blame, guilt, imposter syndrome — because I felt them all too.

I am a dancer, a model, a coach, and an educator. I am both spiritual and science based, feminine and determined to succeed in business. I use my ability to perform, heal, understand, and empathize with others to serve and help each client reach the highest levels of transformation possible.

And the best part is, you can have it all: the love, the career, the lifestyle and you don’t need to be anyone other than yourself to get it.

With love & gratitude,

xx Amanda
