The crown I created.

The metal once held Amanda’s broken spine together. Today it carries a different meaning: courage, reclamation and the possibility of creating from what happened.

Beyond the article

The story is the beginning—not the destination.

Long before the collision, Amanda’s life was shaped by service, travel, cross-cultural work, art and the search for what connects us.

Henna taught her that something can be temporary and still sacred. Recovery taught her to live that lesson from the inside.

Today she brings those threads together through speaking, somatic coaching, conscious gatherings, Happy Henna and purpose-led legacy work.
