Amanda is a functional medicine certified nurse practitioner and midlife health educator who helps women understand the physiology behind stress, hormones, and metabolic changes, so they can move from confusion and burnout to clarity and confidence. 

​

Midlife isn't a decline, it's a physiologic transition. The rules change, no one hands women the new playbook. Most women are told their symptoms are normal, inevitable or "just that age". Amanda challenges that narrative by translating stress physiology, hormone shifts and metabolic change into language women can understand and act on. Her work bridges scienc and lived experience, helping women move from confusion to clarity, from burnout to strength.
