"You can work with Amanda if you simply want to learn to journal or get insightful prompts to be more consistent. But you need to work with Amanda if you feel weighed down by expectations or you've lost touch with yourself and the things you want. That's where the real magic is." — Elle R. "I totally recommend working with Amanda for anyone who is stuck in a rut and needs to shift something they can't quite identify yet." — Kat K. You know that feeling when you’re frustrated and overwhelmed, Doing life the best you can, And you seem to have nothing to show for it but big emotions? Maybe that’s when you think about journaling. You've heard it’s important and helpful. But it feels awkward and weird. What do you even write about? “They” say to just put your thoughts on paper, But that blank page is terrifying. As soon as you see it, you can't seem to form two coherent sentences. It’s uncomfortable. Sitting quietly with your thoughts is hard. You itch with anticipation of what lies beneath the surface, And you’re not sure you want to uncover it. What if what you write is awful? What if YOU are awful for thinking such things? What if someone sees what you write and KNOWS how awful you are? So you give up before you start, deciding journaling isn’t for you. Or maybe you give it a go. You put some thoughts on the page and feel a little better, lighter. You like it enough to try again tomorrow and the next day. But while you enjoy journaling, you’re not necessarily getting much from it. There has to be a better way, a “right” way to journal.
