    Ready to Release What’s Been Stuck in Your Body? | Back to the Heart Embodiment Experience

    Have you done the inner work, learned the mindset tools, and become aware of your patterns… yet still feel like something inside you refuses to shift? The truth is: awareness alone does not create transformation.  If healing stays in the mind and never moves through the body, you continue carrying the same emotional patterns, nervous system responses, and subconscious stories. In this episode, Amanda shares why true healing requires embodiment—and invites you into the Back to the Heart Embodiment Experience, a fully immersive healing event designed to help you release emotional blocks, reconnect to your body, and integrate the healing you’ve intellectually understood. Inside this experience, you’ll receive:  ✨ Nervous system reset yoga + movement  ✨ Human Design guidance to reconnect with your body’s wisdom  ✨ Story work to uncover hidden subconscious patterns  ✨ Conscious connection with plant allies (optional)  ✨ Guided breathwork for emotional release and expansion This is for anyone who:  Understands their patterns but still struggles to change them  Feels disconnected from their body  Is ready to release emotional heaviness stored in the nervous system  Wants to embody peace, confidence, freedom, and self-trust If your heart knows there is more available for you… this is your invitation. https://back2theheart.kit.com/products/back-2-the-heart-embodiment-experience Follow on Instagram Book 1:1 with Amanda

    E42: For Women Who Feel Disconnected From Pleasure: The Truth About Intimacy and Learning to Receive

    Many women grow up learning how to care for everyone else, yet very few learn how to receive love, pleasure, and deep connection themselves. In this episode of Back to the Heart, Amanda is joined by Victoria Eisenhower, host of the podcast Love and Lattes, for a powerful conversation about intimacy, self-connection, and rediscovering what it means to truly receive.

    E41: If You Are Feeling Unmet in Love: Understanding Emotional Capacity in Relationships

    What if you aren’t asking for too much love? What if you’re asking for a level of love that requires more emotional capacity than exists in the relationship right now? When depth feels missing in a relationship, it can create frustration, confusion, and self-doubt — especially when you know what you want and you’ve communicated it clearly. In this episode, Amanda explores the concept of emotional capacity and how your relationship with yourself shapes what you experience with others. You’ll learn why people can only give love to the depth they’ve developed inside themselves — and why receiving love also requires capacity. Through personal stories and grounded insights, Amanda explains how self-love, nervous system safety, and embodiment directly impact relationship dynamics, clarity, and fulfillment. If you’ve ever felt like you’re giving more than you’re receiving, this episode will help you understand why — and what actually creates change. ✨ In This Episode You’ll LearnWhat emotional capacity in relationships really meansWhy someone may care about you but still be unable to meet your needsThe difference between sacrifice and healthy loveWhy we sometimes stay when we know something isn’t enoughHow self-love affects your ability to receive love from othersWhy relationships shift when your internal capacity growsThe connection between identity, embodiment, and relationship clarity❤️ Who This Episode Is ForThis episode is for anyone who: Feels unmet or frustrated in a romantic relationshipWonders why they’re giving more than they’re receivingHas done personal growth work but still feels stuck in relationship patternsWants deeper emotional intimacy, connection, and alignmentIs learning how to come back to themselves and build self-trust🌿 Key TakeawayLove doesn’t change because someone else finally gets it right.

    E40: Your Body Already Knows: Human Design, Self-Trust & Living Authentically

    What if clarity isn’t something you need to figure out—but something your body is already communicating? In this episode of Back to the Heart, Amanda is joined by Cherry Cherepanov for a grounded, real-life conversation about Human Design through the lens of self-trust, intuition, and everyday decision-making. Rather than treating Human Design as a label or identity to follow, this conversation explores it as a practical, supportive framework—one that helps you understand how your energy works, how you’re designed to make decisions, and how to work with yourself instead of against yourself. They also talk about how Human Design can complement the healing work you’re already doing—including mindset work, therapy, coaching, and other modalities—without replacing any of it. This episode is for anyone who values self-awareness, embodiment, and living more authentically, and who wants practical insight into how they’re designed to move through life with more ease. In this episode, we explore: How Human Design supports self-trust and intuitionWhy clarity often lives in the body, not the mindUnderstanding your energy and decision-making styleWorking with yourself instead of forcing changeUsing Human Design alongside other healing tools✨ Notice what resonates as you listen—your body often highlights what’s meant for you.
