Hi, I'm Amanda

As a parent of two now thriving adult children and with over 25 years of experience supporting young people, I've dedicated my life to helping children, teenagers, and families build confidence, resilience, and practical life skills.

Working in education as a teacher aid and now as a youth worker, I have seen firsthand that many young people weren't struggling because they lacked ability, they were struggling because they lacked the tools and self-connection they needed to navigate everyday life. Skills like emotional regulation, resilience, motivation, organisation, preparation for life transitions and social confidence are often expected but rarely taught.

That's why I created ICU Youth Life Coach & Mentor.

My mission is to support young people where they are right now, helping them develop the confidence, independence, and practical skills they need to thrive at school, at work, and in life.

I believe every young person deserves to feel seen, understood, and empowered to reach their full potential.
