How do I capture the magic that I received and the safe haven that Amanda created during the time at Radiant Self? This program spoke to me during a time of transition. I was becoming a mother of three and I knew that I needed some guidance and support on this journey. What I appreciated about this program was that it was in a pace that was manageable with my life. Amanda was open to being flexible with the timeline which works when you are a mama of three. Finding moments of self-care is such a gift for myself and to be in the presence of Amanda is so nurturing to my soul. Access to Amanda through Telegram was also really special, I liked being able to have a space for me to share my thoughts or whatever I am moving through. Amanda was able to support me on the day of delivery my baby girl Haven, and created a meditation for me to help me stay grounded. I am so grateful for the time that I got to work with Amanda and have her support me in learning and uncovering the layers of myself. I highly recommend working with Amanda and if you are called to work with her and your Radiant Self, do it!

Being in the container with Amanda came at the best time for me! I felt so supported by her and feel like I learned so much about incorporating spiritual practices in my day to day life. Every single time we would have a session I felt like I went into another beautiful and magical dimension with her, and I now feel so much more connected with my intuition and my guides. Amanda has so much incredible knowledge and is so open to sharing all that you need and more - she truly creates a safe container where you can express your truest self and I'm so happy I made the decision to do Radiant Self with her. I also LOVE the magic she brings into Cacao Ceremonies, it's truly brought so much into my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you Amanda!!

“Participating in ceremony with Amanda has helped me see my innocent, playful inner child; meet, know and be my highest self; and convene with and embody mother nature so profoundly that I can fully step out of my trauma self and bring deep love and compassion to my relationships and work. Although I was scared to take the leap, being in ceremony and medicine with Amanda helped me embody my best self when I was shaken from that.”

“Working with Amanda is an incredibly nurturing and grounding experience. Her presence and ability to hold space combined with her intuitive ways of channeling create an environment in which feels safe to surrender, and allows for the opportunity to dive deeply into wherever your heart desires. She keeps it real and reminds us that we are all human, and is more than capable of exploring the light and darkness in any situation with an understanding and awareness of the full spectrum of human emotions. If you’re looking for guidance, support or simply a space to just be held, I’d highly recommend getting in touch with Amanda to chat about the services she offers and how she may be able to help.”

“Sitting in ceremony with Amanda facilitated a welcoming level of spiritual and temporal travel. It allowed for going into my heart more deeply and bravely, uncovering insights that were otherwise blocked by a fearful ego. Amanda ethically approached how she created a thoughtful space and process for me, which ultimately enabled a very effective convening together over Zoom. I know I've been taken care of by a powerful shaman when sitting in ceremony feels like being in a protected time capsule. This was how I experienced being in a space with Amanda. It was breathtaking. I'm very grateful for our integration session as well. Through working with her, I was empowered with important grounding strategies for navigating a tough transitional time. I look forward to more ceremonies with Amanda!”

“Amanda is a very empathetic and patient person. It's clear that she is passionate and believes in the work that she does, and she isn't afraid to tell her story. She is always giving you support and encouragement which is necessary when you're trying to do the work of healing yourself.
Besides someone whom I can trust and feel safe with, I would say that through Amanda's ceremonies I have become a lot more comfortable sitting in my feelings and sitting in my body. I believe that my self awareness and ability to observe when I react has improved greatly.
I would absolutely recommend working with Amanda. I am not one to sing praises about anyone or anything unless an impression has been made. I cannot emphasize enough how powerful and necessary the work that Amanda is doing is and how anyone can benefit from a session with her.
I feel like my overall self awareness has been sharpened. I feel a lot more comfortable sitting in my feelings which is something that I struggled with my entire life. I feel myself leaning in more instead of leaning out when I am in situations where I have been triggered.”

“The Ceremony was a safe space to process and face the shadows in the undercurrent of my life--not just my own life but also the life of my ancestors that I carry within me. As this was my first Ceremony, I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was open to Amanda's wisdom and guidance.
As I was guided, I faced my childhood abuser with nothing--no attachment and no avoidance. I could truly face him with the cacao in my hands and say, "You hold no power over me."
As I was guided, I saw myself bleeding over a war field of broken bones. As I walked through, the sharp edges would cut my feet and legs even further. But it didn't hurt. My blood turned to fire, burning the path of bones behind me. And so I trust myself to break the cycle of trauma, war, and genocide that my family has been through.
And so, I'm hopeful for the continuation of my spiritual journey, and Amanda's Cacao Ceremony will forever be a stone in that foundation.”

It is my mission to create safe spaces where people can come home to themselves. Spaces where we can allow ourselves to be and feel exactly what we need to, all while feeling held and nurtured. I weave in the wisdom passed down to me from all my teachers, in particular that of the Andean lineage of the Master of the Seven Rays.
