Welcome to My Journey: Living Aloud, My Randomness & Truth
Welcome to my corner of the world, where healing, love, and self-discovery intertwine to create a life of purpose and joy. My name is Amanda, and I’m so excited to invite you into this sacred space where I’ll be sharing my journey of healing, growth, and enlightenment. At 44, I’ve come to embrace a life filled with love, joy, and a deep sense of self-awareness—but it wasn’t always this way.
I’ve been married to my incredible husband for nearly 13 years. He’s not just my partner but my best friend, my greatest supporter, and the person who has shown me what unconditional love truly means. Together, we share a home filled with warmth and laughter, alongside our 21-year-old transgender son, Madi Greye, who is a vital part of my heart. Madi’s journey has been a beautiful reminder of courage and authenticity. He expressed his true self at a young age and supporting him has taught me so much about love, acceptance, and the strength it takes to live one’s truth. Our home is also filled with the playful energy of our two Dalmatian fur babies, Doc and Ginger Rose, who never fail to keep life interesting.
But if I’m honest, my life wasn’t always filled with this much love and joy. For many years, I carried the weight of emotional wounds, unhealed traumas, and a sense of feeling lost in my own life. I spent so much of my childhood, and early adulthood focused on survival—raising a child as a young mother, working tirelessly to make ends meet, and often ignoring my own needs and passions.
Everything began to change when I embarked on a journey of healing and self-discovery. Over the past 6 years, I’ve peeled back the layers of old pain and limiting beliefs, rediscovering the vibrant, creative, and passionate woman I was always meant to be. Along the way, I’ve leaned into spirituality, embraced mindfulness, and cultivated a deeper connection with God and his divine love.
This blog reflects that journey. It’s a space where I’ll share my deepest thoughts, poetry, and the healing journey itself. So, if you’re someone who’s searching for inspiration, guidance, or simply a kindred spirit on a similar path, I hope you’ll find something meaningful here. Let’s walk this road together and celebrate the beauty of growth, love, and enlightenment.
Thank you for being here. I can’t wait to share more with you.
With love and light,
Amanda XOXO
