About

 

I’m Amy — sound healer, ceremonial cacao practitioner, movement teacher and author of From Broken to Unbreakable.
But my journey didn’t start with healing.
It started with survival.

​

I grew up carrying trauma, abandonment wounds and years of emotional chaos. As a teenager, I tried to outrun my pain any way I could — alcohol, toxic relationships, burning myself out, looking for love and safety in all the wrong places. choosing anything that felt like an escape. I didn’t know how to feel my emotions, so I kept running from them.

​

At eighteen, everything changed.
Alone in a tiny B&B room, I hit my breaking point — and my breakthrough. For the first time, I saw the truth of who I was becoming, and the truth of who I wanted to be.
I wanted more.
I deserved more.

And even with no roadmap, I decided I was going to fight for it.

Life didn’t become easy after that. I faced more loss, more trauma, more heartbreak. But every storm became a reason to rise. I rebuilt myself piece by piece — through sound, cacao, movement, breathwork and writing. These practices healed me long before I ever guided anyone else through them.

​

Before creating She Was The Storm, I spent over a decade in luxury hospitality, private members’ clubs and residential communities. I led teams, supported vulnerable residents and created environments where people felt safe and seen. I didn’t realise it then, but I was already doing the soul work I do now.

​

She Was The Storm was born from my own transformation — a space for grounding, softening, healing and rising. A place where people can reconnect to themselves after years of surviving.

​

Somewhere on this journey, I manifested the life I once prayed for.
A life built on purpose instead of pain.
A life where I help others find the peace I had to fight for.

​

My moto is simple:
When fate whispers to you, you can not withstand the storm, whisper back,

I AM THE STORM
