Meet Amya Kianda

Hey! Welcome 🧡

If you’ve made it here, it’s probably because you and I have a lot in common. Once upon a time, I:

  • Would wake up every day feeling hungover — even when I didn’t drink and had at least 7 hours of sleep.

  • Felt on top of the world and sure of myself some days, and others, I’d feel full of despair and not wanting to get out of bed (even on a day off).

  • Lived for the weekends because I was feeling so drained from the daily grind and the overwhelm that came with always being “on” — though I could never put my finger on why this was happening.

  • Despite feeling so exhausted, still prioritised being a listening ear and taking phone calls from loved ones, even when I didn’t even have anything left for myself.

  • Didn’t love what I saw in the mirror, even with all the effort I was putting into my health and fitness.

  • Experienced energy crashes every afternoon that required a coffee and a sugary snack to push through… and this sometimes led to binge eating… followed by guilt and “starting again tomorrow.”

  • Saw my health and vitality crash before my very eyes, despite doing everything “right.”

  • Questioned my life… a lot.

Chances are, you can relate to some, most, or all of those. And are living your own kind of rested —> depleted cycle.

But everything changed for me. Which is why I do what I do, and why I KNOW this is possible for you.

I lived this way for years, not really knowing any better. I entered the full-time work force as a Paediatric Occupational Therapist, eager to learn and make a difference to people’s lives. I was high-functioning, had it all together, keen to please my superiors and to demonstrate my competency. I progressed in my career, experiencing different roles… and I noticed my enthusiasm fade. Not because I didn’t care for the families I worked with, but there was something in me that felt like I had hit a brick wall. Being determined not to be a “quitter” or a “softie,” I pushed through. This pushing through applied to my work, being a “reliable and supportive friend,” and eating and training in a specific way to support my competitive Olympic weightlifting.

I carried on this way until I noticed:

  • My periods became painful and not as regular as they once were (also had something to do with being on the pill for so long)

  • 3PM energy crashes, brain fog that barely went away, poor mental stamina, a short emotional fuse and apathy

  • Getting sick often

  • Decreasing mood and energy, and just feeling “blah” most of the time

  • Feeling dread every Sunday night

  • I was living in my head and less in my body

  • My relationship with my body was awful — I treated it like a constant project. Overly obsessed with my appearance. Never completely happy. Doing mirror body checks like it was going to run away.

It wasn’t until 2020 when things finally started to change, and then in 2021 when they started to look up.

The Catalyst.

I began healing my core wounds and trauma after I found my teacher, Liana Shanti, seeing my behaviours through a whole new lens and with compassion — even though I was already a Paediatric Occupational Therapist and Child-Centred Play Therapist (helping kids with trauma). Then, through my Functional Nutrition Therapy studies with HMI Wellness®, my perception of my body, my health, my diet, and my entire life changed even more. Finally securing the missing piece to my puzzle, I immediately applied what I learned in my studies to myself, and slowly, then all at once, my body came back to me:

— My gut healed, and my adrenals and HPA axis finally got the support they'd been starving for
— I cleared out the build-up from years of the pill, alcohol, and processed food
— My hormones balanced, and my periods became fuss-free
— The brain fog and the memory blanks lifted
— My energy came back — I stopped needing to nap just to function
— My relationship with my body, my nervous system, and my connection to my soul and to Jesus all came home

When HMI Wellness® finally released their Quantum-Mind Body Therapy® Program (Life Coaching, elevated), I enrolled in the inaugural class and have been layering in these powerful life coaching techniques into not only my client sessions, but my own life.

The Fuel To My Flame.

To say that this was the gasoline to an already ignited flame is an understatement. Things began happening pretty quickly and with an ease and solidity never experienced before. Having applied all of my studies to my own life, and bringing those exact same principles and applying them in ways that are relevant to my clients, I don’t just bring theoretical knowledge… it’s embodied.

That’s why I know — beyond a shadow of a doubt — that the life they're seeking, the woman they long to be, is more than possible. It’s a given… with the right support, right tools and the belief — my clients get to see the old version of themselves melt before their very eyes, making way for the version of them that’s always existed — she’s confident, loves the skin she’s in, is resilient AND vivacious.

If you're a woman who feels disconnected from herself — tired of running on empty, stuck, and not quite recognising the person looking back at you — and you want your energy, your confidence, and your sense of self back… this is the help you've been looking for. The answer you've been searching for.

Your next step?
