Working with Amanda is like working with a fireball of energy! She’s inspiring, always looking to grow and bring others up with her.

Amanda drops little nuggets of useful wisdom that I always end up thinking about later in the week and put to use.

There's something kind of sneaky about her work (in a good way!). Amanda manages to make things simple yet powerful, which is truly rare.

I feel like I push myself more towards growth, and I have a more positive outlook on things since working with Amanda. I've become more comfortable with stretching towards the so-called impossible.

I would highly recommend that anybody who is looking for growth or to take the next step in their careers work with Amanda. If somebody needs help with a mindset shift or just figuring out a good strategy for their next chapter in life, she is the perfect person to work with.

Amanda exudes this infectious energy and buoyant optimism even in challenging moments. She cares so sincerely for the people she works with and for. Amanda listens carefully, processes ideas quickly, and always offers innovative solutions that forge progress and creativity.

I can say that I have learned so much from her such as the way she carries herself and shares positivity--”be the energy you want to feel in the room!”

Another aspect I’ve benefited from and learned by working with Amanda is to look at the big picture while never losing sight of the all-important details (and vice-versa!): be analytical, check the facts and repeat as necessary.

She has a natural ability to give others the opportunity to speak without judgement or inferiority complexes...she listens. Amanda’s ability to connect with the concerns of others is a crucial part of her being and her success in life!

I cannot say enough good things about Amanda. She always fosters and elicits the best in people. She guides, motivates and encourages everyone to participate and collaborate in discussions and the sharing of ideas.

Amanda really does have such an impressive range of skills from being business savvy, offering to share her wide range of knowledge, and doing so with remarkable interpersonal skills. She is the embodiment of profession perfection: kind, wise and deeply intelligent.

Amanda has an inviting personality that allows me to feel supported like I can approach her with anything without being judged. In my opinion, anyone lucky enough to be able to get to work with Amanda should take the opportunity!

Overall, with her values, compassion for others, skills and abilities, she has proven a great example to me of what a compassionate and driven woman in leadership looks like.”

Also, she is a values driven person and always strives to make her decisions based on her personal and professional values. One of the greatest things I learned from working with Amanda was her grace under pressure.

On a personal level, I have always admired how she truly gives 100% to both her work/clients, and her family. I highly recommend Amanda as she always brings her ‘A-game’ to everything she does. I know that anyone who chooses to work with her will receive her full support and attention.

Amanda is positive, energetic and kind. She gives me energy whenever I am in her presence, and I always feel heard and appreciated when I am with her. I never want my time to end when I am with her because we have so much fun!

I admire Amanda’s ability to reach and exceed her goals in everything she does, and to see opportunities everywhere. Amanda is very productive and focused and I learned how to be like that in my personal business from her.

She taught me simple tips such as carrying my Income Producing Activity sheet in my date book and to check that I was engaging in at least one activity a day. I also witnessed her use every opportunity to promote her business.

As I worked with Amanda following her lead my business improved too. Personally, I was drawn to her positive outgoing personality, and so tried to be more like her. I would recommend Amanda for sure as she is very intelligent, strategic and is a clear goal-oriented teacher.

She also has a great sense of humour, a caring spirit and is professional in her conduct too. I can trust that Amanda would also have my best interests at heart.
