“I was very inspired by Amanda's journey and the powerful insights she shared during the panel at this year's Wellbeing at Work Summit. Having overcome significant personal traumas, Amanda has built remarkable inner resilience throughout her career.

Amanda's presence and insight left a lasting impression — she's truly a standout voice in the wellbeing space.”

“Amanda begins by connecting with the audience on a deeply human level, acknowledging the shared experience of hardship. She skilfully weaves her personal narrative, not as a laundry list of experiences, but as a testament to the strength of the human spirit. Amanda dismantles the hierarchy of struggle and validates the diverse ways they manifest, from the physical to the emotional, the obvious to the subtle, creating a sense of understanding and recognition in the audience. She transitions from shared experience to practical solutions, offering a three-part framework for healing and growth.”

“She is a strong proponent of Mental Health in the workplace and champions the DE&I project at a global level. I have firsthand witnessed Amanda's passion, confidence and exuberance while working on some of the crucial topics in the workplace. Amanda possesses exceptional communication skills both verbal and written. Out of her many strengths the few that stand out the most are, her resilience and empathy towards people.

It is quite evident that her work and approach are one of evidence-based practice- using methodologies and approaches which are backed by sound rationale and evidence of efficacy.”

“I had the pleasure of meeting Amanda when I joined the L’Occitane Groupe. I feel Amanda is an asset to our business because she brings light to a very important cause - Mental Health. Her speech at our conference was so inspiring. She has a unique ability to fill a room with warmth and positivity, bringing a sense of peace while discussing this delicate subject. I would highly recommend Amanda as a public speaker to any corporation and look forward to seeing her use her exceptional knowledge and talent to spread further awareness.”

“Amanda has a wealth of knowledge and passion when it comes to all things Mental Health. Her presence on stage when speaking about this topic is captivating and you can see she is so invested in what she is speaking about which can only come from experience. She started a Mental Health Magazine at L'Occitane which actually addressed real life issues we face and that it is okay to struggle with these things, its how we overcome/deal with these things that's important. In the magazine she teaches ways on dealing with everyday life stressors such as finance, juggling work life balances and difficult family dynamics. She does not shy away from the topics that I find are always left out such as death, depression or anxiety in the workplace or in your life. She is one of the few people (I can count on one hand) that actually sees you as a unique individual person and caters the way she interacts with you based on your uniqueness and not just as another person who she treats the same. I have had the opportunity to listen to hear speak at our work conference's and I have seen people open up in a public space because they connected and trusted her. Once you have met Amanda, she is someone who when you walk away you will never forget.”

“I have worked for 3 years with Amanda at L'Occitane Australia, it was a great pleasure attending her presentations on different topics. She is a great communicator, even for foreigners. She is very clear and confident. Very engaged in every topic she handles, very good listener and storytelling, you can spend hours to listen to her. She is also very adaptable to her audience, so she is sure she is understandable. She has a great connection to everybody.”

“Through all the years I've known and worked with Amanda, I simply can't recommend her highly enough. She is the real deal- absolutely one of the most genuine and courageously authentic people I've had the pleasure to meet. She is open, honest and always ready to share and draw from her years of experience and knowledge. Her enthusiasm, energy and zest for life are simply unmatched. We need more people like you in the world Amanda!”
