I believe STORY is the Answer…

 To our crises of meaning and belonging.
To our impulse to heal our lives and help others.
To our desire and drive to leave the world better than we found it.

True To Intention is not just a brand or a business.
It’s a HOME for Misfits and Messengers,
where People and The Process are as precious as the Products.

Here, Seekers and Storytellers cocoon
to dissolve old identities, reorganize their sacred code material,
and co-author and embody more empowering narratives
for our children, our culture, and our world.

Some birth brands and manifest messages
for pages and stages.
Everyone heals st*ries and traverses
the messy middle of metamorphosis together…
with the language of Story… and lots of chocolate.

What Storytellers are Saying

Lori copy

"Amanda and I met when I was looking to author a book. That was all. Just a book. I had no concrete idea what this book would be about or the purpose it might eventually serve, but I was determined to write a book. My sights were set on this dream in childhood, and it was time. Boy, was it time—time for a massive tearing down and reconstruction of my personal and professional life through the words and stories that would flow out of me. I had no idea, nor even ventured to consider, that this book I had always wanted to write would right my world in ways that no other form of education or therapy or medication or inspirational seminar or guru could." 

LORI BONNEVIER, LCSW

You Don't Have to Crush Your Ex
NikiElliot

“I now am an internationally known thought leader because you helped me get my books, curriculum, and online courses launched. Thank you, Amanda, for insisting that I prioritize my stories over the academic and technical knowledge I wanted to share. You have helped me become a brave messenger. I’m proud of my finished products.”

DR. NIKI ELLIOTT

I Feel Your Pain
True To Intention » John Gray

“I love her organization and coaching style. Her ability to communicate, articulate, coach, and empathize even when it DOES get messy was not only helpful to me through the process, but it was a powerful model for me to learn how to do the same with my clients. Because of our work together, I have now produced and published a book that I am more than proud of, created a signature speech that moves people and sells my products (without even trying), and created a signature program that restores relationships and lives."

Stop Spot-Cleaning Your Life
True To Intention » Renee Frey

"When I found Amanda, I was half-way through the content but having trouble sticking to scheduled time for writing. I decided to enlist her support, and I’m glad I did because she came up with the phenomenal idea of weaving a story throughout the chapters. Amanda kept me on task, and it forced me to write and get it done! She is incredible at what she does! I couldn’t have finished the book with out her.”

“If you want to write a book, you made it to the right place. Not only will Amanda help you get the book out of your head, she’ll ensure that you write a bestseller that you will love, and so will your readers. Amanda has been with me on my entire writing journey, and my books would not be where they are today without her expertise, genius, and love of her art.”

"Amanda brought life to The Parkinson’s Playbook, transforming a rough manuscript into an engaging story that is relevant to those dealing with Parkinson’s and other chronic diseases. Amanda was integral in shaping the story of my journeymore than an editor and coach, she was a team member who could weave together the many treatment strategies for Parkinson’s into a comprehensive guidebook."

"The best part about working with Amanda at the retreat was the immediate feedback:
Write. Send. Revise. Write. Send. Revise. Repeat. Plus, there were so many personal ahas and breakthroughs that would NOT have occurred without this experience! A month later, I have finished my first draft of the manuscript and am so incredibly excited for the future. And I'm having fun! I 100% recommend this experience for ANYONE who is struggling to write a book or create a message AND to anyone who thinks they have their shit together... because without Amanda, you don't."

What Seekers are Saying

Lori_Hand

"After all of the writing, processing, and balancing, I am left thinking more positively about the future, feeling restored to factory settings, acting braver of all fronts, and spending more time marinating in my authentic self. I find myself blessed to be recovering from the weighty anchors of perfectionism and control.

 
The work in this quest is real, raging-fire-burning work, that helped me to rediscover myselfa renewed sense of purpose and stronger voice along with genuine connectedness to others. With the foundation that only a painfully-sweet journey can build, I feel ready for whatever is next. My world is 'righting' itself with regard to my marriage, my children, friends, colleagues, and an exciting shift in my flourishing career."
