Hello + Welcome!
I’m glad you’re here. My name is Amanda Gold and I can help you get un-stuck.
Does any of this sound like you?
- “I keep talking about {making art, starting my business, writing a book, traveling, changing jobs, fill in the blank} but days turn into weeks turn into years and despite my best intentions and efforts I pretty much never make any progress.”
- “I keep doing things that I KNOW hold me back, I just can’t seem to stop!”
- “I know I’m creative and smart and full of great ideas, but I just feel so STUCK and have no idea how to tap into this potential and USE it.”
- “I’m so sick of being broke and barely making ends meet, I feel like I could be and do and have SO MUCH MORE but I just can’t figure it out!”
- “I didn’t go through what I’ve gone through to settle for THIS. I want more but I’m overwhelmed/ scared/ completely unsure where to start…”
I know this pain. I’ve been this person, saying these exact same things, and I’ve worked with so many others who have felt the same way.
If this is you, cheer up. You’ve found your way to a place where everything can finally, actually change.
Radical Self Love and Acceptance
Many problems and fears dissolve under the light of deep, fierce self love. So if you struggle with things like perfectionism, self-criticism, overwhelm and negative body image, I can help. You can learn to have your own back, be your own best friend, and practice self-care in a practical, personal, and radical way.
Mindset and Intentional Thinking
Everything starts with our thoughts, and you’ll learn exactly how that works. Your thinking fuels emotions, influences behavior, and creates the results you have (or don’t). Any changes you want to make begin with your thoughts. We’ll uncover anything holding you back, and fill you with powerful, loving thoughts. That’s how you start to live the life of your wildest dreams.
Aligned Goal Setting
We’re going to set goals that matter to YOU. I give you practical tools and processes to reach ANY goals. From how to create new habits, to time management and beyond, we will identify what’s important to you, find out how it aligns with your values and priorities, and learn how to achieve anything you want with joy, ease and flow.
EXPERIENCE MEETS EXPERTISE
You can be assured that you’re in a safe, non-judgmental space when you work with me. I was a Certified Peer and Family Support Specialist and Case Manager for a large non-profit serving high-needs populations experiencing homelessness, mental health challenges, and substance misuse. I am trained in Motivational Interviewing, Trauma Informed Care, Non-Violent Crisis Intervention, and Harm Reduction methods. I have also been to hell and back myself. I’ve overcome depression, addiction, homelessness and trauma, and that allows me to hold a radically inclusive space for you. And, I know first hand what it’s like to have overcome tremendous hardship only to land in a mediocre life that feels hard and unfulfilling. You know you’re here for more, you just don’t know what that is exactly or how to get there. This is where I come in.

SKILLS I TEACH
ABOUT COACHING
A lot of people wonder: what is coaching exactly? Well, mainly, we really focus on the present moment. Then you move into your future in a powerful, intentional way. Life coaching can be a great addition to therapy or other practices. Plus, it can fill in any gaps with practical tools and processes that will help you thrive and feel amazing. Coaching doesn’t fix or diagnose: it assumes you’re already whole and capable. You’re not a problem to be solved, and you have everything you need within you. My job is simply to help you uncover it, trust it, and let it shine.
