About Amanda

Welcome!

Through the writings, workshops, and programs on this website, I bring together intuition, spirituality, and my academic background in the sciences.

My goal is to share what I’ve personally learned both through lived experience and years of research, teaching, and working with students and clients.

I strive to create thought-provoking, compassionate, and genuinely useful content for those exploring their intuitive path.

When I started this website in 2013, my intention was to help people trust their intuitive abilities and move through fear or doubt as they develop their spiritual gifts.

More than 52 million views later, I’m grateful for how much this space has grown and evolved over time - thank you for being part of it!

If this is your first visit, I invite you to explore The Blog, browse the Online Shop and take a look at The Membership - each designed to support you at your own pace.

My background

My professional path began in the environmental sciences. I hold both an M.S. and a B.S. and have taught natural science courses at the university level. That scientific foundation continues to shape how I approach intuition: with curiosity, observation, and a desire to understand what’s happening beneath the surface.

I’ve been able to see and hear Spirit since childhood. At first, these experiences were described by my family as dreams, prophecies - because of my Romanian and English heritage, my gifts were explained to me as running in the family and realistic, as both cultures embrace spirituality.

As I grew older, the need to understand the “why” behind them led me to apply my research and teaching skills to exploring my gifts in the intuitive and spiritual world, initially to help myself, and eventually to support others.

My heritage is English (Wales), Romanian, and Yugoslavian (Bosnia and Herzegovina), and I’m rooted in Pennsylvania, USA. I’m inspired by old architecture, folklore, and the sense of community that comes from shared stories.

Over the years, I’ve received clairvoyant training through The International School of Clairvoyance, Reiki training through The International Center for Reiki (The Pink Dolphin), and I continue to pursue ongoing education in intuitive development. I learn just as much from my readers, clients, and colleagues as I do from formal programs.
