Amanda Gist is a former actor, first-time author, passionate storyteller, thunderstorm lover, and mac & cheese aficionado. She writes and speaks from personal experience on a wide range of topics, from the rescue dog that saved her to difficult conversations about mental health and eating disorders. Her passion is personal growth topics like self-compassion, feeding your soul, finding your truth, and learning to get back up after a dream has been shattered.
What she’s good at: being a dog mom, making animals out of Play-Doh, listening, cooking steak, bringing love to email inboxes, and setting monthly intentions with each new moon.
What she’s working on: working less and living more, yoga, cooking salmon, regularly watering her plants, and actually reading her giant list of books to read.
Amanda also hosts a podcast exploring topics through the lens of general recovery – mental health, eating disorder, and addiction – called Recoveredish.
