We talk all about the nervous system and more with our dear  Amanda Smith.
She’s a mechanical and aerospace engineer who’s worked for NASA. She’s also a natural deep intuitive.She helped design the interior and exterior of the crew module on NASA’s Artemis Program. In fact, one of her first engineering jobs was designing specialized toilets for submarines, airplanes, and prisons.She used both her intuitive communication abilities and her mechanic engineering mind, as an example, working directly with astronauts to develop a bathroom that works in space.

Now, she works with other female athletes who are suffering with mysterious health issues that take them out of their game on all levels. Amanda’s Heal to Grow System includes her renown “Body Scan” that reveals what’s really wrong in the body, maps the path forward, and lands her back in her best condition, back in her happy life, back in the game. She’s also the host of Spirit of an Athlete Podcast.

Suzy knows what it’s like to live stuck in survival mode. She grew up in a dysfunctional family, married young, and went through three near-death experiences—including domestic violence. For years, she thought stress and trauma were just “normal life.”In her 40s, everything changed. She realised she was living in her head, completely disconnected from her body, and began training in somatic psychotherapy. That journey not only helped her heal, but also uncovered her gift for turning complex neuroscience into down-to-earth, practical tools that anyone can use.Today, she works with clients around the world and recently launched her program From Surviving 2 Thriving. Her first course, From Stress 2 Bliss, teaches people how to understand their body’s stress responses—and how to finally break free from survival mode and live with more ease, resilience, and joy.
