This isn’t just a meditation—it’s a reclamation.

In this Tea Time sesh, Amanda guides you through a powerful practice to release pain, reclaim your power, and come back home to yourself.

You’ll be guided to breathe, feel where your pain lives in your body, and reimagine it as energy you can release—reminding yourself that your story doesn’t end in what happened to you…it rises in who you choose to become.

Also, in honor of Denim Day and Sexual Assault Awareness Month, Amanda introduces the Own Your Sexy Campaign—a movement rooted in taking your power back on your terms.

As a survivor of intimate partner and sexual violence, Amanda holds space for you to feel, move, and transform what’s been heavy into something that empowers you.

10% of proceeds from the Dare to Be Iconic Shop and Own Your Sexy bundles will be donated to organizations supporting survivors of sexual and dating violence—because healing is personal, but impact is collective.

Healing out loud starts here, radiant icons.

In today’s Tea Time sesh, Amanda gets real about a moment that shifted her healing journey—a PTSD flashback that left her feeling completely disconnected from her body.

What started as a normal heels dance class quickly turned into something deeper- a realization of how much trauma can live in the body, and how hard it can be to feel safe within yourself again.

Amanda opens up about how her past experiences have shaped her sense of safety, trust, and self-connection—and what it’s looked like to slowly rebuild that relationship with her body. She shares the tools that have helped her begin to come home to herself again.

Because this isn’t about “fixing” yourself—it’s about learning to feel safe in your body again.

No pressure. No timelines. No pretending.

Just freedom, trust, and healing out loud—on your terms.

EPISODE REWIND

Season 3 is here, Radiant Icons ✨

Amanda kicks off the new season with a powerful reminder that being solo doesn’t mean being lonely. In this episode, she shares life post-breakup, how she’s been balancing the single life with DTBI, and the lessons she’s learned from intentionally taking herself on solo dates.

From reclaiming her presence and falling in love with her own company, to reconnecting with her body and embracing emotions she once avoided, Amanda shows how these experiences can transform your relationship with yourself.

She also breaks down why the relationship you have with yourself is the most iconic one you’ll ever have—and shares actionable steps to start becoming your own best friend today. Plus, the DTBI Hotline is back, answering real questions about loneliness, self-trust, and the courage to stand boldly on your own.

If you’ve ever doubted your own company, let this be your wake-up call: stop waiting for someone else to show up—be your own iconic love, your own biggest cheerleader, and the boldest version of yourself. 💋
