You just want peace.

Peace in your home. Peace in your relationship. Peace in your body.


But here’s the hard truth no one talks about:

The real peace?

It’s on the other side of discomfort.


In this milestone episode, Amanda gets raw and real about what it actually takes to reclaim your voice and protect your peace when you’re in a relationship impacted by addiction.


We unpack:

  • Why the “path of least resistance” keeps you stuck
  • What happens when you abandon yourself to keep the peace
  • How to start flexing your discomfort muscle (without diving straight into deep-end convos)
  • Client stories that show this shift in real life
  • And how YOU can start choosing the kind of “hard” that leads to healing


You don’t have to blow things up.

You don’t have to confront every moment.

But you do deserve to stop abandoning your truth.
