Her personally developed coaching programs combine her expertise as an intuitive, holistic chiropractor, business owner and life coach.

The Wake Up Call
Amy knows exactly when the biggest wake up call of her life happened — it was May 21, 2002. She was taking her final chiropractic exam when police officers surrounded her school. Amy’s abusive, husband-at-the-time had shown up armed and in camouflage.
